  (1)
 So we were on our way home
 On the right bus
 I just want to ask the driver
 If it's not too much fuss
 To drop  me at the old lady's
 And pick me up tomorrow
  (1)
 If you could, If you could
 It's all  by design
 To keep me  from losing  my mind
 Well I was on  my way there
 And it was just around the corner
 I caught a funny stare
 And started a fight with the owner
 Well it's the whole  nine yards
 And I fold all my cards in your face,  oh
 'Cause I love  what is real
 And I loved you my dear
 Before you were replaced
 Oh, you were replaced
 And it's all  by design
 To keep me  from losing  my mind
 So I saw  you over there
 And acted like I don't care
 'Cause I've never seen something that made me stare
 Sorry, I couldn't tab this if I tried, I'm not that good!]
 Yeah, so then we run  through your backyards
 And throw all my best cards in your face
 Yeah in your face
 Because I love  what is real
 And I loved you my dear before I was replaced
 I was replaced
 And it's all  by design
 To keep  me  from losing  my mind
 It's all  by design
 To keep us  from losing  our minds
 We were on  our way home
 And we were on the right bus
 I just want to tell the driver
 Don't bother 'cause it's a bust
 THE END!
 Footnotes:
 (1)- This is a chord called (in full) "A add9 no5 ||R23" and I didn't think I could fit
 all this in the space I had. It is played like this:
e|--------7
B|-------6-
G|-0-------
D|--------7
A|-0-------
E|X--------
 (2) This is a sliding thing that just sounds cool, and I don't think the song sounds
 quite complete without it. So here it is. It's not hard to tell where it is exactly in the song.

            (1)
So we were on our way home

On the right bus

I just want to ask the driver

If it's not too much fuss
To [G]drop me at the old lady's

And pick me up tomorrow
            (1)
If you could, If you could

It's a[A]ll by design
To k[Bm]eep [D]me from [G]losing my [D]mind

Well I was o[D]n my way there

And it was just around the corner

I caught a funny stare

And started a fight with the owner

Well it's the [G]whole nine yards
And I fold all my cards in your f[D]ace,   oh
'Cause I l[G]ove what is real

And I loved you my dear
Before you were replaced [D]

Oh, you were replaced

And it's a[A]ll by design
To k[Bm]eep [D]me from l[G]osing my m[D]ind

So I s[D]aw you over there

And acted like I don't care

'Cause I've never seen something that made me stare

Sorry, I couldn't tab this if I tried, I'm not that good!]

Yeah, so then we r[G]un through your backyards
And throw all my best cards in your f[D]ace

Yeah in your face
Because I l[G]ove what is real

And I loved you my dear before I was replaced
I was replaced [D]

And it's a[A]ll by design
To k[Bm]eep m[D]e from l[G]osing my mind [D]
It's a[A]ll by design
To k[Bm]eep [D]us from l[G]osing our [D]minds

We were [D]on our way home

And we were on the right bus

I just want to tell the driver

Don't bother 'cause it's a bust

THE END!
