Mailman came while you were out
C#m            D
I was sleeping at your house
E                               C#m           D
Letter from your lover with an Ottawa address

E
Filled the shower up with steam
C#m               D
Find out what you mean to him
E
Before I hand it over
               C#m                     A
I'll push the flap back down and press
      B         C                    F#        A
Yes, I'll leave everything the way I found it

                  E   A     E
I'll bet I'm the best houseguest
A     E         A   E
Houseguest you ever had
                  E   A     E
I'll bet I'm the best houseguest
A     E         A   E   G#m
Houseguest you ever had
A
I never leave my socks around
G#m               A
I always keep the TV down
               F#m x2          F x2  E    C#m  A A
And when I leave, I never leave a mess

We were resting on the couch
There was nothing much to watch
Other than my manners
And your waning graciousness
I eased your thumb off the remote
Placed my palms against your throats
The heat in here's infernal
And so's that entry in your journal
Yeah, it changed everything the day I found it

I bet I'm the best houseguest
Houseguest you ever had
                  E   A     E
I'll bet I'm the best houseguest
A     E         A   E   G#m
Houseguest you ever had
     F#m            E    B
I've done things in your room
                    C#m7
You'd be ashamed to accuse me of
             F#m     E B
It's just a tendency I have when certain people
G         C
Refuse me love
G         C
Refuse me love
G         C
Refuse me love
G
You refuse
F#
I accuse
