Jason Mraz - Wordplay
[Intro]~
~G ~C ~D ~G ~C ~D
~Em
I've been all around the world
~D
I've been a new sensation
~C
But it doesn't really matter in this ge-generation
~Em ~D
The sophmore slump is an uphill battle
~C
And someone said they knew my scene
~Em
Cause they need a new song like a new religion
~D
Music for the television
~C
I can't do the long division.. Someone do the math
~Em
'Fore the record label puts me on the shelf up in the freezer
~C
Gotta find another way to live the life of leisure
~Em
So i drop my top
~D
Mix and i mingle
~C ~D
Is everybody ready for the single.. And it goes
[chorus]~
~G ~C ~D
Ha la la la love
Now listen closely to the verse i lay
~G ~C ~D
Ha la la la love
It's all about the wordplay
~G ~C ~D
Ha la la la love
The wonderful thing it does because
~Em ~D
Because i am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa la la's
~C ~D
Yea the mr. A to z they say i'm all about the wordplay
[intro]~
~G ~C ~D
~Em
And it's time to get ill i got your remedy
~D
For those who don't remember me
~C
Well let me introduce you to my style
~Em ~D
I try to keep a jumble and the lyrics never mumble
~C
When the music's making people tongue-tied
~Em
You want a new song like a new religion
~D
Music for the television
~C
I can't do the long division
Someone do the math
~Em ~D
For the people write me off like i'm a one hit wonder
~C
Gotta find another way to keep from going under
~Em ~D
Pull out the stops
Got your attention
~C ~D
I guess it's time again for me to mention the wordplay
[chorus]~
~G ~C ~D
Ha la la la love
Now listen closely to the verse i lay
~G ~C ~D
Ha la la la love
It's all about the wordplay

~C ~D
Yea the mr. A to z they say i'm all about the wordplay
[bridge]~
~D
Oh, the bridge across the stream of consciousness
~Bm
It always seems to be a flowing
But i don't know which way my brain is going
~Em
Oh the remedy, the time it kicks
~D
The melodies inside me
~C
And i'm curving till i'm running out of air
~D
Are you prepared to take a dive
Into the deep end of my head
~Bm
Are you listening to a single word i've said
[chorus]~
~G ~C ~D
Ah la la la love
Listen closer to the words i say
~G ~C ~D
Ah la la la love
We're sticking to the wordplay
