 PM. ............... ............... ................................
 (PART 1)
It's  been a while since  I've seen your  face,
 (PART 2)
Gotta  say that I'm happy  to see you come around  my place.
 (PART 3)
 Now,  I think we've  talked about it,
And  I think I know what's coming up next,
Let's  put our minds  away and let our hormones  do the rest. Does  it seem
 Obscene?  Does it seem like a  bad thing?
Well  if it is,  I'm sorry Miss,  but you know I'm just nine-teen.
So  don't be afraid  if my pants  start to leak.
You  know damn  well I'm in my sexual  peak.
 Well...
 NOTE:
 The last three chords of the verse(, ,  and ),
 Are only played once each,
 And they are held to ring out,
 As shown below:
"...Well..."

D------4----2----

E-3--------------
 NOTE:
 The upbeat ska rhythm starts here.
 Listen to the actual song a few times through.
 As you listen, play along until you have it down.
Why  don't you have some  dirty hot sex with  me?
It  ain't like I'm askin  you to give it up for  free.
 Oh yeah!
We  can start it right  now baby get on your knees,
Don't  make me beg again  girl I just said please.
 Yeah!
 NOTE:
 The second verse is played a little bit different than the first.
 The chord progression,
 (Although it uses the same chords and similar structure).
 Is slightly modified and sounds vaguely different than the first verse.

Now  when you look  down don't be  misled.
I  found my life's  purpose and it's getting  up stairs and into your bed.
Well  there's the phone  girl go right on ahead.
I'm  sure you'd rather  be with your stupid  boyfriend instead!
 NOTE:
 The tempo dramatically reduces here,
 And the notes are strummed once,
 And left to ring out.
 If you are playing an electric guitar,
 A smooth chorus or reverb setting here is superb.
 If you are playing an acoustic guitar,
 Strum the strings closer to the neck,
 Rather than the bridge.
 This technique will give you a more hollow sound out of the chords.

 NOTE:
 The upbeat ska-style rhythm starts up again here.
Why  don't you have some  dirty hot sex with  me?
It  ain't like I'm askin  you to give it up for  free.
 Oh yeah!
We  can start it right  now baby get on your knees,
Don't  make me beg again  girl I just said please.
 Yeah!
 NOTE:
 The outro is comprised of the same,
 Chords and rhythm as the chorus.
Oh  yeah...Oh  yeah...Oh  yeah!
Baby  get on your knees!  Oh yeah...Oh  yeah!
I'm  beggin' you darlin'  please. Oh yeah...Oh  yeah!
Baby  get on your knees!  Oh yeah...Oh  yeah!
I'm  beggin' you darlin'  please!
 Please...Please...Please..  Please  me!
