Intro - p.m. - G C x2
first verse with palm mute like intro
G
Ten pounds too much to the naked eye
C
I don't take the bus because she drives
G
Watermelon lipstick, and way too much
C
She got buttermilk smile and a thorny touch
G
Street smart, like a Courtney Love
C
Can't get enough Hollywood stories of
G
Anybody famous that can make her feel
C
Like they're all kinda friends in a way
Open chords
G
No best friend, well one but she's crazy
C
Grew up to end up a Professor of lazy
G
The last of six kids that all left town
C
Seems nobody ever wanted them around
G
But she's cool like a soda can sittin' on ice
C
Always orders sushi, only eats the rice
G
Talks about J Lo like they're best of friends
C
I think she loves me, but it all depends
Am G Em
Hey baby, I don't wanna be your Superman
Am G Em
I just wanna be your man and I'll be super, baby
Am G
You'll be standin' in the sun shine
Em Am
I'll be standin' right here in the rain
G
You save me and I will save the day
p.m. - G C x2
Open chords
G
I got a sweet gig rakin' in the cash with karaoke
C
I get the crowd goin' when I sing the hokey pokey
G
I shake it to the
C
left and then I shake it to the right
G
What's not to love, man I'm on tonight
C
I got the LA stylie with the New York trim
G
Keep my pants so low
C
It's like I'm goin' for a swim
G
I got the Coppertone tan, like in Mexico
C
Well, not now but when I go, yeah
Palm mute this verse
G
I know you don't see me like a movie star
C
And it can't help much that I don't have no car
G
But you're my favorite thing, by far
C
That's gotta count for something

| This is one of many songs by Train that I love, i think it is about a breakup and how you feel after the other person breaks up with you, Days also reminds me of running at soccer practice, running under the hot sun i don't know why but it does great song! | |

| I really like this song. It could be about a breakup, or just another hard time in the relationship and he just feels like shit. | |

| this guy is trying to describe everything good about him. And he thinks he's all that. But to me his life sounds boring: He spends time singing the hokey-pokey wich is stupid. He doesn't have a car! What is he gonna do? Take that girl in a taxi? (Ha ha) | |

| Ahh, no one has had a real review of this song yet? This song is about a guy who wants a girl to accept him for who he is, but he wishes that he was something more anyway. The basis of his love is the following line, which cleverly ends this song: "But you're my favorite thing, by far That's gotta count for something" The first verse (which, one could argue, is more than one verse) explains how the guy thinks the girl is amazing despite any flaws that he sees: "Ten pounds too much to the naked eye" "No best friend, well one but she's crazy" In reality, that ten could be twenty, but this guy doesn't care anyway. The third verse explains how the guy either sees himself or wishes to be seen: it portrays him as thinking that he can have the girl, but he doubts it inevitably. To conclude, this song is about unblind love--the guy is clearly not crushing on this girl in any way, as he sees her for what she is and loves every bit of it. | |
