The Humour of The Situation
Barenaked Ladies
Pretty easy song off BNL's 2000 album "Maroon". In the U.S. it's spelled "Humor", 
in Canada it's spelled "Humour". I figured I'd go with "Humour" since that's what 
it says on the back of my "Maroon" CD. Anyways:

-Standard Tuning-

-Capo on the 2nd fret-

-Tempo-
Fast ♩ = 152

   When you walked in, I said with a grin
That we were just talking about you
We all had to lie because you would cry
If you knew we were laughing at you

                +                           
In the momentary lull before the band begins to play
                       D7sus          D7sus
There's an overwhelming stench of alibi

  Come on now, now
Come on now, now
Enjoy the humour of the situation
Come on now, now
Come on now, now
Enjoy the humour of the situation

,  (x2)

I said on the phone "Don't wait 'till I'm home"
But I'm sure I could hear you crying
I said where I was, but you doubt it because
It's the caller I.. you're buying

In the hour that it took for me to drive up to the door
You'd arranged all my belongings on the lawn

[Chorus] (x2)
Come on now, now
Come on now, now
Enjoy the humour of the situation 

   Have you heard the one about the boy
Who moved into the henhouse to sleep?
He woke up with egg on his face
When he found out all the hens had crossed the street

[Chorus] (x2)
Come on now, now
Come on now, now
Enjoy the humour of the situation 

As I walked out, I thought about all I had left behind me
I felt a chill because I was still
Wearing the emperor's new clothes

My mind was racing with each chance that I had missed
While your next door neighbour soaked be with the house

I've never felt so small, I've never been so dissed
As I shiver, dripping, while the chorus goes:

[Chorus] (x3)
Come on now, now
Come on now, now
Enjoy the humour of the situation

[Coda]
