Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I'd have  to be crazy
 To stop  all my singin
 and never  play music  again.
 You'd call  me a fool
 If I put  on a top  hat
 and ran  out to flag  down the wind.
 I'd have  to be weird
 to grow  me a beard...
 just to see  what the redknecks would do.
 But, I'd  have to be crazy
plum  out of mind
 to fall  out of love  with you.
 Now I  know I've done weird  things
 I told people  I heard  things
 when silence  was all  that abounds.
 Been days  when it pleased  me
 to be  on my knees
 following  ants as they crawled  cross the ground
I've  been insane on a train
But  I'm still me again
 and the place  where i hold you is true...
So  I know I'm alright
 'case  I'd have to  be crazy
 to fall  out of love  with you...
 You know I
 (and  i don't intend  to..)
 But should  there come a day,
when  I say that i don't love  you
They  can lock me away--ay--AY
It  sure would be  dingy
to  live in an envelope
waiting alone  for a stamp
 and you'd swear  i was loco
 to rub  for a genie
 while  burning my  hand on  lamp
and  i may not be normal
 but nobo-d-y  is...
 So I'd  like to say  'fore I'm through
I'd  have to be crazy
plum  out of my mind
 to fall  out of love  with you!!
 REPEAT ONCE

I'd h[E]ave to be c[E7]razy
To s[E]top all my s[E7]ingin
and [F#]never play [F]music aga[C]in.
You'd [E]call me a [E7]fool
If I [E]put on a [E7]top hat
and [B7]ran out to f[B7]lag down the win[B7]d. [Em]
I'd [E]have to be w[E7]eird
to g[E]row me a bea[E7]rd...
just to [A]see what the redknecks would [Am]do.
But, I[E]'d have to be crazy
[B7]plum out of m[B7]ind
to f[A]all out of l[Am]ove with [E]you.

Now [E]I know I've done w[E7]eird things
I told p[E]eople I [E7]heard things
when [F#]silence was a[F]ll that ab[C]ounds.
Been d[E]ays when it pl[E7]eased me
to [E]be on my k[E7]nees
f[B7]ollowing ants as they c[B7]rawled cross the grou[B7]nd  [Em]

[E]I've been insane on a tr[E7]ain
[E]But I'm still me a[E7]gain
and the [A]place where i hold you is [Am]true...

[E]So I know I'm al[E]right
'case[B7] I'd have t[B7]o be cra[B7]zy
to f[A]all out of [Am]love with y[E]ou...

You know I
([E]and i don't i[F#]ntend to..[F])
But s[F]hould there come a [E]day,
[E]when I say that i don't [F#]love you
[F]They can lock me a[B7]way--ay--[B7]AY

[E]It sure would be[E7] dingy
[E]to live in an en[E7]velope
[F#]waiting [F]alone for a s[C]tamp

and you'd [E]swear i was l[E7]oco
to r[E]ub for a g[E7]enie
w[B7]hile burning my[B7] hand on[B7] lamp  [Em]
[Em]and i may not be n[E]ormal
but [Em]nobo-d-y i[E]s...
So I[E]'d like to s[A]ay 'fore I'm t[Am]hrough

[E]I'd have to be c[E]razy
[B7]plum out of my m[B7]ind
to f[A]all out of l[Am]ove with [E]you!!

REPEAT ONCE
