Wordplay Jason Mraz
Jason Mraz - Wordplay
Intro: G - C9 - D (x2)
Leave the high E string open on all three chords
Verse: Em G Am7
I've been [Em]all around the world
I've been a [G]new sensation
But it doe[Am7]sn't really matter in this ge-generation
The sophomore slump is an uphill battle
And someone said they knew my scene
Cause they need a new song like a new religion
Music for the television
I can't do the long division someone do the math
The record label puts me on the shelf up in the freezer
Gotta find another way to live the life of leisure
Pre-chorus:
So I [Em]drop my top [G]mix and I mingle
Is [Am7]everybody ready for the single and it goes...
Chorus:
[G]Ah la [C9]la la [D]love...now listen closely to the verse I lay
Ah la la la love...it's all about the wordplay
Ah la la la love
[D]The wonderful thing it does because because
[Em]I am the wizard of ooh's and [D/F#]ah's and fa la la's
Yeah the [C9]Mr. A to Z they say I'm all about the wordplay
Verse 2:
And it's time to get ill I got your remedy
For those who don't remember me well let me introduce you to my style
I try to keep a jumble and the lyrics never mumble
When the music's making people tongue-tied
You want a new song like a new religion
Music for the television
I can't do the long division someone do the math
For the people write me off like I'm a one hit wonder
Gotta find another way to keep from going under
Pre-chorus 2:
[Em]Pull out the stops
(no chord)
Got your attention
[Am7]I guess it's time again for me to mention the wordplay... (Chorus)
Bridge:
[Am]Oh, the bridge across the stream of consciousness
It always seems to be a [B]flowing but I don't know which way my brain is going
Oh the [E5]remedy, the time it kicks, the [D5]melodies inside me and I'm [C5]curving till I'm
out of air
[Am]Are you prepared to take a dive into the deep end of my head
[B]Are you listening to a single word I've said?
Chorus: (just guitar)
[G]Ah la[C9] la la[D] love
Listen closer to the words I say
Ah la la love
We're sticking to the wordplay
Ah la la la love
The wonderful thing it does because because I am the wizard of ooh's and ah's and fa la la's
Yeah the Mr. A to Z they say I'm all about the wordplay
Final Chorus: (full band)
[G]Ah la [C9]la la [D]love
I'm all about the wordplay
Ah la la la love
Sticking with the wordplay
Ah la la la love
I love the wonderful thing it does because because of my ooh's and ah's and fa la la's
back in love
With the Mr. A to Z they say is all about the wordplay
