What would Tom do?

VERSE
G
Sometimes I get a little down
C                           G
I know I really shouldn't 
I have so much to be grateful for
While others they have nought

Lately I don't go out so much
It's safer in my home
I have my cats for company    
Me I live alone

BRIDGE
C     
But there's one thing guaranteed
To get me over me
D                     C                 D      
I ask myself a very simple question

CHORUS
G           C               D
What would Tom do?
If he were here with me
What would Tom do?
In a situation like this
What would Tom do?
To blow away the blues
What would Tom do?
If he were in my shoes

C
He'd make a game of indoor croquet
D
Eat humus all day
C
Write a play or do cabaret
D
Bake a friend a birthday cake
C
And if it was terrible
Completely inedible
D                             C      G
He'd say it doesn't matter anyway.

VERSE
But then I wake up next day
I need building up again
And Tom he isn't here to play
And outside looks like rain

I need to make an effort
And do the best I'm able
So I put on the watermelon song
                               D
And dance around the table

BRIDGE

CHORUS

OUTRO
G
What would Tom do?
Em
What would Tom do?
C
What would Tom do?
D
What would Tom do?


LYRICS:

Sometimes I get a little down
I know I really shouldn't 
I have so much to be grateful for
While others they have nought

Lately I don't go out so much
It's safer in my home
I have my cats for company    
Me I live alone

But there's one thing guaranteed
To get me over me
I ask myself a very simple question

What would Tom do?
If he were here with me
What would Tom do?
In a situation like this
What would Tom do?
To blow away the blues
What would Tom do?
If he were in my shoes

He'd make a game of indoor croquet
Eat humus all day
Write a play or do cabaret
Bake a friend a birthday cake
And if it was terrible
Completely inedible
He'd say it doesn't matter anyway

But then I wake up next day
I need building up again
And Tom he isn't here to play
And outside looks like rain

I need to make an effort
And do the best I'm able
So I put on the watermelon song
And dance around the table

But there's one thing guaranteed
To get me over me
I ask myself a very simple question

What would Tom do?
If he were here with me
What would Tom do?
In a situation like this
What would Tom do?
To blow away the blues
What would Tom do?
If he were in my shoes

He'd make a game of indoor croquet
Eat humus all day
Write a play or do cabaret
Bake a friend a birthday cake
And if it was terrible
Completely inedible
He'd say it doesn't matter anyway

What would Tom do?
What would Tom do?
What would Tom do?
What would Tom do?

What would Tom do?
What would Tom do?
What would Tom do?
What would Tom do?
