Listen to the Math Lyrics
I wanted to play this song acoustically so I came up with this to kind of mix the
bass and guitar together and I think it sounds
pretty decent. Works best if you have another guitar to play the little lead part
during the chorus.
Just as a heads-up, this is how I play the chords but you can do it any other way
(this just sounds best to me):
You've been famous since your birth
And a silent one it was,
Till they told me it's a girl
And everybody gasped
I know how to raise you right
Teach you how to read
Do math, share toys spell names and alphabet
And how to be polite
You've been famous since your birth
And a silent one it was,
Till they told me it's a girl
And everybody said
You and your atlas know it all
Let the corners curl
Cause if you go by night
You'll hit the coast for sure
...Verse goes straight into chorus on E
It's a ruse, it's a laugh
Experts, they'd agree
Listen to the math
Australopithecine
Rekindle your heart
These hospital machines
Are state of the art
B-------9---------9---------9---------9-----| --> second guitar plays this through out the chorus
Then:
I've put down my middle name
In the back of her book
And signed it just in case
Our walk was over love
Cause I've got one more up my sleeve
Bring it out tonight
Cause if I am the joke
Then you're the punchline
-Into Chorus
Then:
and on the last time:
| End on: (on the same beat as the B chord below)
End on:
But it's the art of the state
That's gonna keep me awake
I need a second opinion
Not a second to waste
