      D                          ( G                D )
Well, I been bored in Boston, been bored in Coeur d'Alene,
     D                  ( E             A )
from Albany to Austin and everywhere between.
      D                               ( G           D )
Can't help but snooze in Santa Cruz and Tallahassee too,
        D                                     ( A  )               E7
but the times Lord knows I'm bored the most are times I spend with you.

   A                        D
It must be the way in which you
      G                         D
don't do those things you never do
     A                    ( G             D )
that keeps me so sleepy, so tired all the time,
   ( G7       B7 )         (  E           A )
that bores me right out of my mind.
       G                                     A7
    Of all the girls I ever knew
           Bm          Em7
    you're easily most boring.
        E7            D
    One tender little kiss from you
        G                ( D          E7 )
    and girl you've got me snoring.

Now sometimes life's worries can keep
this body from falling asleep.
But once I'm with you, I fall prey to your charms
and drift right away in your arms.

You know that my boredom is true;
that's why I am singin' for you -
to give back a bit of that endless ennui
which you in your dullness gave me.
    Of all the girls I ever knew
    you're easily most boring.
    One tender little kiss from you
    and girl you've got me snoring.
