GI'm coming in
GTry to stop me
GPush furniture in front of the door
GIt only gives me something to push against
In the full heat of the summer's Dday
YouC're telling me to go aGway
But you owe me eight thousand dolDlars
And I could uGse it
GI'm only getting stronger
GYou may have noticed
GBut a head full of memories propels me ever forward
And in the living room I don't seDe where you are
But the baCck door's open so you caGn't have gone far
And eight thousand dollars is a Dwhole lotta money
And I could Guse it
GCould be that it's my imagination
GBut I think I hear you now
GSo come out come out wherever you are
GOllie ollie ollie ollie ollie oxen-freeeee
See I'm perfectly aware of where Dour love stands
But the plain Cfact is that you owe me Geight grand
If it helps to jog your memory
I lent it to you one TueDsday when we were drinking
GHa, Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha, A-ha

I'm coming in

Try to stop me

Push furniture in front of the door

It only gives me something to push against

In the full heat of the summer's day

C G

You're telling me to go away

But you owe me eight thousand dollars

And I could use it

I'm only getting stronger

You may have noticed

But a head full of memories propels me ever forward

And in the living room I don't see where you are

C G

But the back door's open so you can't have gone far

And eight thousand dollars is a whole lotta money

And I could use it

Could be that it's my imagination

But I think I hear you now

So come out come out wherever you are

Ollie ollie ollie ollie ollie oxen-freeeee

See I'm perfectly aware of where our love stands

C G

But the plain fact is that you owe me eight grand

If it helps to jog your memory

I lent it to you one Tuesday when we were drinking

Ha, Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha, A-ha
