[Intro]
                                   Am7    
Well, can't you see that it's just rainin'
                          G7           D7  
There ain't no need to go outside, but baby

[Verse 1]
    G7          D9    
You hardly even notice
Am7           C7      
When I try to show you
     G7               D9      
This song is meant to keep you
     Am7                  C7      
From doin' what you're supposed to
G7            D9   
Wakin' up too early
Am7            C7      
Maybe we could sleep in
G7              D9      
Make you banana pancakes
   Am7                C7      Am7
Pretend like it's the weekend now

[Chorus]
                                G7  
And we could pretend it all the time
                             Am7    
Can't you see that it's just rainin'
                          G7                D7   
There ain't no need to go outside, but just maybe

[Verse 2]
G7      D9  
Laka ukulele
Am7         C7  
Mama made a baby
G7                   D9      
Really don't mind to practice
       Am7              C7  
'Cause you're my little lady
G7         D9     
Lady, lady love me
         Am7              C7  
'Cause I love to lay here lazy
G7                 D9      
We could close the curtains
   Am7                  C7     Am7   
Pretend like there's no world outside

[Chorus]
                                G7  
And we could pretend it all the time
                             Am7    
Can't you see that it's just rainin'
                          G7     
There ain't no need to go outside
                        Am7 
Ain't no need, ain't no need
       G7
Mmmm mmmm
                         Am7
Can't you see, can't you see
                         G7  
Rain all day and I don't mind

[Bridge]
        Am7                         
But the telephone's singing, ringing
                              D                   
It's too early, don't pick it up, we don't need to
       Am7                          
We got everything we need right here
                              D               
And everything we need is enough, just so easy
         Bm                                  
When the whole world fits inside of your arms
      Em             Em/D#         C           
Do we really need to pay attention to the alarm
        G   
Wake up slow
     D7  
Mmmm mmmm
        G         D7  
Wake up slow, but baby

[Verse 3]
    G7          D9    
You hardly even notice
Am7           C7      
When I try to show you
     G7               D9      
This song is meant to keep you
     Am7                  C7      
From doin' what you're supposed to
G7            D9   
Wakin' up too early
Am7            C7      
Maybe we could sleep in
G7              D9      
Make you banana pancakes
   Am7                C7      Am7
Pretend like it's the weekend now

[Chorus]
                                G7  
And we could pretend it all the time
                             Am7    
Can't you see that it's just rainin'
                          G7     
There ain't no need to go outside
                        Am7 
Ain't no need, ain't no need
                   G7                               
Rain all day and I really, really, really don't mind
                         Am7
Can't you see, can't you see
                  G   
You gotta wake up slow
