	 F		D#	G#  A#  C        
I got my head checked

	F	D#	G#  A#  C
By a jumbo jet

	  F	D#	G#  A#  C
It wasn't easy

	    F		D#	G#  A#  C
But nothing is, no


F	D#     G#   A#    C
        Well I feel heavy metal

F	D#	G#       A#  C
	And I'm pins and I'm needles

F	D#     G#      A#  C
        Well I lie and I'm easy

F			G#		 C#
All of the time and I'm never sure why I need you
Pleased to meet ya


	 F		D#	G#  A#  C        
I got my head done

       F		D#	G#  A#  C        
When I was young

	    F		D#	G#  A#  C        
It's not my problem

	    F		D#	G#  A#  C        
It's not my problem


F	D#     G#   A#    C
        Well I feel heavy metal

F	D#	G#       A#  C
	And I'm pins and I'm needles

F	D#     G#      A#  C
        Well I lie and I'm easy

F			G#		 C#
All of the time and I'm never sure why I need you
Pleased to meet ya

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah
