THESE APPLES - Barenaked Ladies

Standard Tuning

A friend brought me flowers, she said they were lilacs,
I've never been good with plants
Her next presentation, a new dictionary
                             A7Sus4
She circled the word "romance"
So enthusiastic, a little bit drastic,
I shaved her name in my head.
As she beheld it, she said I misspelled it;
Need more be said?

    These apples are delicious!
                              N..
    "As a matter of fact they are," she said
    Can all this fruit be free? 

Interlude:

She wrote me a letter as big as a phone book
I've never been big on mail
I sent her a postcard from somewhere near Lethbridge,
                                   -3  A7Sus4  
And wondered if it still went by rail 
I've never been frightened of being enlightened
But some things can go too far
Though sometimes I stammer and mix up my grammar,
You get what my meanings are 

    These apples are delicious!
                              N..
    "As a matter of fact they are," she said
    Can all this fruit be free? 

Interlude:

Bridge:
    I'm not trying to sing a love song, I'm trying to sing in tune
    I know I am sometimes headstrong
    Falling in love, catching fire, I want to be consumed
    Wondering will I ever tire,      will I ever tire?
             Will I ever tire?

Instrumental Break:
    (3)   x4

    These apples are delicious!
                              N..
    "As a matter of fact they are," she said
    Can all this fruit be free?
