Verse 1
F#

Michael, you've changed.

Well, so have you.

Well...

Nobody's perfect, nobody's perfect.

I am human, so are you.
Bm
B

Nobody's perfect,

nobody's perfect.
Em
B
Em

Here is what we ought to plan to do.
F#
Bm

Let's make a list of irritating habits
Bbdim
F#
Bm

that we think the other per son has.
D
Ab

Then once we know our
C#m

irritating habits,
Absus4
C#m

we can correct them.

As for example,
B
Em

now please don't be offended,
D
G

but because these things exist,
Em
C

I have taken the little liberty
B
E

of fixing up a little list.
D

Now you're sure you don't mind?
E
Bm

Oh, I'm absolutely sure.
D
A

well I think that's very big of you

well you see dear it just so happens
D
Em

that I have made up a little listing
A

to a pair of socks
F#
Bm
B
Bm

does not represent the end
E
C#m
A

of the civilized world
D
A
F#
C

if you're out of socks
B
D
Bm
E
Bm
D

believe me when I say that there's bound to
A
E
A

be a more effective way to get them washed
F#
D

than to stand in your drawers
Bm
E
Bm
E
Ddim
C#

in the middle of the kitchen screaming
F#m
A
D
C#m
C#
F#

someone has stolen my socks
Em
D

this is a piece of paper

This is a column which, as you see,
D

I have placed on the piece of paper.

This is a list of receipts and bills,

what we might call household expense,

which I have entered along this line,

forming a business -like design

inside the column which I've prepared

upon this piece of paper.

This is a total of all those bills.

It represents a month's expense,

the whole outlay in checks and

cash

that went for the rent

and the corned beef hash,

In short, the sum and net result

of all the figures inside the column

which I've prepared upon

this piece of paper.

Now, this, as you know,
Em
E

is a statement from the bank.
Em

It must be compared

with the total result

of all the figures inside the column.

If we are to know, in terms of cost,
A

just how much money we've made or lost,

C#dim
Cdim

how far, in fact, we've come or gone,

A#dim
C

what I'm trying to say is, honey,
D

you're overdrawn.
Gm
D
A

Again!
D

You chew in your sleep.
Gm
D
Dm

Do what? You chew.
D
A

You go like this. I don't. You do.
D
G

I've never done that one

time in my life.
Ddim
D
A#
A

Darling, please re member,
D
Dm

I'm your wife.
D
A
D

You chew in your sleep.
A#

You do it frequently.
Gm
A#

But that's absolutely awful.
A
A#
A
D

I quite agree.
Em
D

You are always late.
E

You are always early
A

We're totally dressed

And ready to go

I open the door

But do we make it?
D

It's where are my gloves?

My gloves, my gloves
A

And where is my purse?

My purse, my purse
E

Where are my keys?

Where is my hat?
A

Where is my this?

Where is my that?
D

If I protest
A

It only makes it worse
B
E

Hat and gloves, keys and purse
B
E

Pain in the neck, terrible curse
D
B

And I would simply like to state
E
Bm

That if you ask me what I hate

It's the terrible, horrible
A
D
E

Habit you have of always
D
Gsus4
G

being late
C

Oh, when I start to tell a story

An amusing anecdote I've read
A
Bm
C

When I start to tell a funny story
A
D

I get flustered

cause I know what lies ahead
C

It always happens just when I start

To tell a story
F
D

It makes no difference where we are
C
Em

When I get where the joke should be
A#dim
A

You say it just ahead of
Em
Bm
D
G

me I mean
Dm
D
Dm
G
Gsus4
C
G

You give
A
D
F#

me Russian dressing
Bm

which I happen to detest
F#

You grab the morning papers
F#
B

and you take the part that's best.

Every night since we've been wed,
C#m
C#m

you've worn cold cream into bed.
Ab

Every night beneath the sheet,
F#
E
D
A

must you look like trick or treat?
F#

Hmm. Nobody's perfect.
F#

Nobody's perfect.
Bm
F#
Bm
F#

I am human, so are you.
Bm
B

Nobody's perfect.

Nobody's perfect.
Em
B
Em

Here is what we ought to plan to do.
F#

You take my list
Bm

and see if you can't do a little better.
F#

You take mine and see if you can't notice
B

an improvement.
A

Cause nobody's perfect,
G
Em

especially not you.

Not you.
F#
D

Not you, not you, not you, not you, not you.

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
