I Don’t Know What We’re Talking About (And I Haven’t for a While)

Verse 1:
    C               Caug     Am 
I picked you up at eight
                               C                Caug     Am 
My heart was racing, and now we’re on our first date
            Dbdim7  Dm          Dm7             G 
You look so radiant as we walk into the restaurant
     Dm                Dm7                G 
You start to talk and then I smile and nod

Verse 2:
      C               Caug    Am 
You told  me about your life
                              C    Caug    Am 
But I was lost inside  your oceanic eyes
                   Dbdim7           Dm             Dm7           G 
Our hands touched briefly as the light reflected off your golden hair
    Dm              Dm7               G 
a strong electric charge was in the air

Pre-Chorus:
 C
Now it’s 10 o'clock
 C7  
And the meal is done
             F 
But the conversation’s
 Fm  
Just begun
           C
You’re fascinating
C7  
I feel blessed
       F            Fm  
But I have to be honest

My eyes are open wide
                                  C       Caug   Am 
You speak with passion but I’m panicking inside
                   Dbdim7      Dm        Dm7           G 
Cause I’ve been daydreaming about a Pterodactyl named Lamar
 Dm         Dm7                       G 
When he’s tired of flying he drives a car

Pre-Chorus:
      C             C7  
He’s got to get to work on time
      F            Fm  
His nursing job is on the line
      C            C7  
His wife is always on his case
      F            Fm  
Why can’t she give Lamar some space?

Chorus:
