The Terrible Dinner Guest Uke tab by Danielle Ate The Sandwich

[Verse]
    G                                  D      
A closet coat's hung safe in quieter places
       G                                D          
The chicken was silent in its cooking glazes
    G                   Em                        D
My tongue was heavy and hiding in the back of its cage


[Verse]
     G                                 D
I'm scavenging cabinets to make conversation
         G                                D
Looking under couch cushions for sophistication
    G                        Em                   D
I thought I had taste but I don't even know what time it is


[Chorus]
G                             B
Ooh, I've got soul, I've got soul
     Em                      C
But you'd never know, never know
              G                          D
If you were stuck across the table from me
             G         D  G
The terrible dinner guest


[Verse]
      G                                D      
Well, I am a middle school boy at the sock hop
       G                            D          
I'm clinging to walls to avoid any small talk
G                      Em                           D
I'm only here with my hair combed because my mother made me


[Verse]
      G                                  D      
The words crossing tables were soft and engaging
      G                                      D      
But I couldn't quite rouse myself to the occasion
       G                                Em                         D
Put a note on my list to learn more talking points about organic gardening


[Chorus]
G                             B
Ooh, I've got soul, I've got soul
     Em                      C
But you'd never know, never know
              G                          D
If you were stuck across the table from me
             G         D  G
The terrible dinner guest


[Bridge]
C               G         D
Oh, if I could only understand
C         Em            D
All your literary references
C                Em                D
I'd be spinning tables around the room
C              Em                D
Only I could think one thing to prove


[Chorus]
G                           B
Ooh, I've got soul, I've got soul, I've got soul
     Em                           C
But you'd never know, never know, never know
                   G                        D
Stuck across the table from me, 'cross the table
                   G            D        G
I'm the terrible dinner guest, dinner guest


[Chorus]
G                             B
Ooh, I've got soul, I've got soul
     Em                      C
But you'd never know, never know
              G                          D
If you were stuck across the table from me
             G         D  G
The terrible dinner guest


[Verse]
      G                                  D      
So, quiet, I curled on the couch with my blankets
      G                                  D      
After making a vow for a life's worth of silence
       G                     Em                   D
I'm trading my voice in for land legs just like a mermaid


[Chorus]
G                             B
Ooh, I've got soul, I've got soul
     Em                      C
But you'd never know, never know
              G                          D
If you were stuck across the table from me
             G         D  G
The terrible dinner guest
