Danielle Ate the Sandwich - The Terrible Dinner Guest Chords
[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
