Callin' In Sick
"Weird Al" Yankovic
====================

(subtle bass and guitar with minimal drums [ie. closed hi-hat])

E	  C	      G		A		C	B
   Hit my snooze alarm for the 27th time
E		C	G	 A		C	     B
   Just don't feel like going to work - I think I'll call my boss then I'm
A  B        C     D	    A
   Gonna hack and cough and wheeze
B	    C       D
Swear I've got some strange disease
A	     B       C         D
What's that little twerp gonna say?  Hey...

(Chorus) - (Hard rock style, lots of crashes, overdriven guitar)
E    C C      G		      A
	  I'm callin' in sick today
E    C C  G		  A
	  Callin' in sick today

I could shine my pennies or clean my lava lamp
I could spend all day in my underwear watching "Ernest Goes To Camp"
I could sit and count my hair
I could burp my Tupperware
I'm not busy now anyway.   Hey..........

(Chorus)
E    C C      G		      A
	  I'm callin' in sick today

	  Callin' in sick today

(Bridge) - (same as chorus)
B	A  B		   A
  I can do anything I want to
B   A    B    A
  I am invincible now
B    A	    B	  A
     I'm on fire, baby
      B				D
  I'm alive, I'm alive, can you hear me, world?
	E
  I'm alive!

Maybe I'll spend all day staring at the sun and trying not to squint
Maybe I'll make a huge color tapestry from my bellybutton lint
When I'm sick of takin' abuse
I just make up some lame excuse
Freedom's just seven digits away.  Hey...

(Chorus)
E    C C      G		      A
	  I'm callin' in sick today
E    C C  G		  A
	  Callin' in sick today
E    C C  G				  A
	  Ain't going to work, no way
E    C C  G			A		G
	  Callin' in sick today
B   B B
A A A G G F# D E (hold on E)
