[Intro]
G Em C D
[Verse 1]
GHey pretty lady wont you come my way
EmWe got nothing going on today
CI got two arms and you belong in the middle
DI'll be the big spoon if you'll be the little
GWe could stay out until we see the stars
EmOr we could drink Blue Moon in a dive bar 
CIf you wanna go shopping you could drag me around
DI could check out the new record store downtown
GIf you got the money, I got the time 
EmYou put me in the best frame of mind 
CLately I’ve been telling anybody who’ll hear
DThat you’re the only song playing in my ears
GSo hey pretty lady won’t you come my way
EmWe got nothing going on today
CI got two arms and you belong in the middle
DI’ll be the big spoon if you’ll be the little

[Verse 2]
GI sold a record but I ain’t sold two
EmSo I only got a little bit to spend on you
CI’d sure like to buy you an ice cream cone
DPretend we don’t have to act like all grown
GUp men and women worried bout the banks 
EmThe youth and the protests and the corporate ranks
CThe burden and afflictions and the stress are all gone
DWhen I’m walking down the street with you on my arm
GSo hey pretty lady won’t you come my way
EmWe got nothing going on today 
CYou keep doing what it is you do 
DAnd I’m always gonna be a Gfool for you
CYou be the crazy and I’ll be the sane 
DI’ll keep up with you and I Gwon’t complain
COakland, Chicago, to NYC
I Djust wanna hold you nGext to me
CI’ll be the big spoon, you be the little 
DI got two arms...and you belong in the Gmiddle

[Intro]

G Em C D

[Verse 1]

Hey pretty lady wont you come my way

We got nothing going on today

I got two arms and you belong in the middle

I'll be the big spoon if you'll be the little

We could stay out until we see the stars

Or we could drink Blue Moon in a dive bar

If you wanna go shopping you could drag me around

I could check out the new record store downtown

If you got the money, I got the time

You put me in the best frame of mind

Lately I’ve been telling anybody who’ll hear

That you’re the only song playing in my ears

So hey pretty lady won’t you come my way

We got nothing going on today

I got two arms and you belong in the middle

I’ll be the big spoon if you’ll be the little

[Piano Solo]

[Verse 2]

I sold a record but I ain’t sold two

So I only got a little bit to spend on you

I’d sure like to buy you an ice cream cone

Pretend we don’t have to act like all grown

Up men and women worried bout the banks

The youth and the protests and the corporate ranks

The burden and afflictions and the stress are all gone

When I’m walking down the street with you on my arm

So hey pretty lady won’t you come my way

We got nothing going on today

You keep doing what it is you do

D G

And I’m always gonna be a fool for you

You be the crazy and I’ll be the sane

D G

I’ll keep up with you and I won’t complain

Oakland, Chicago, to NYC

D G

I just wanna hold you next to me

I’ll be the big spoon, you be the little

D G

I got two arms...and you belong in the middle
