You were Doutside smokiGng, standDing out in the snEmow
I've Dbeen running around askGing like I donD't already kEmnow

D G D Em

I went running around asking everybody I know

D G D Em

I already asked my mother and the woman who lives next door

D G D Em

I've been running around asking for so long

D G D Em

I wanted to ask my grandmother, but I couldn't get past the weather

D G D Em

But it was good to sit together, on her couch of seafoam green

D G D Em

All her secrets safe without me

D G D Em

And I called up a friend who lives very far away

D G D Em

I took up all her time in asking, but she didn't know what to say

D G D Em

I said I wouldn't keep her, and I set down the phone

D G D Em

Whined from the receiver the muffled dial tone

D G D Em

You were outside smoking, standing out in the snow

D G D Em

I've been running around asking like I don't already know
