(Capo on 4)

(Intro.)
|(G) / / / |(G) / / / |(G) / / / |(G) / /

(Verse 1)
They say the (G)Mayflower only lives one day
And a (Am)penguin only picks one mate
And (D)dogs, well, they see it all in black and (G) white
(G)Butterflies'll winter in Mexico
And (Am)geese always catch the same flight home
And (D)elephants don't forget a damn thing in this (G)life

(Chorus)
Right now, (C)I wish
I had the memory of a (G)goldfish
What's love? Who (D)gives a s**t?
I wouldn't even have a (G)clue
Snug as a bug, happy (C)as a clam
Blissfully, I wouldn't (G)give a damn, but here I am
(D)Drunk as a skunk in a honky tonk
Just (D)trying to get over (G)you

(Verse 2)
Well, a (G)grizzly bear, he gets a proper sleep
And a (Am)puma has a heck of a vertical leap
That (D)crocodile loves to kill you with a (G)smile
And the (G)camel can go a month without a drink
But, (Am)me, I drown myself eight days a week
(D)Filling up a fish bowl with all the tears I cry

(Chorus)
Right now, (C)I wish
I had the memory of a (G)goldfish
What's love? Who (D)gives a s**t?
I wouldn't even have a (G)clue
Snug as a bug, happy (C)as a clam
Blissfully, I wouldn't (G)give a damn, but here I am
Three (D)sheets to the wind and two-thirds gone
I'm (D)drunk as a skunk in a honky tonk
Just (D)trying to get over (G)you

(Out-Chorus)
(Bb)Snug as a (G/B)bug, happy (C)as a clam
Blissfully, I wouldn't (G)give a damn, but here I am
Three (D)sheets to the wind and two-thirds gone
While that (D)goldfish is out there, moving on
(D)Singing his happy "Go Fish" song
While I'm (D)drunk as a skunk in a honky tonk
Just (D)trying to get over (G)you / / / (G) / - - - - -
