[Chorus]
G C G
Call the Smithsonian I made a discovery
G D
Life ain't forever and lunch isn't free
G D C G
Loved ones will break your heart with or without you
C G D G
Turns out we don't get to know everything
G C G C G C D G
[Verse 1]
D C
Get the young scientists, tell them "come quick"
G D
I must be the first man that's ever seen this
D C
Lines on my face, my teeth are not white
G D
My eyes do not work and my legs don't move right
[Chorus]

Call the Smithsonian I made a discovery

Life ain't forever and lunch isn't free

Loved ones will break your heart with or without you

[Verse 2]
D C
I wonder if Romeo ever got scared
G D
Taken but shaken, unprepared
D C
Under the balcony, under the trees
G D
Fully unknowing of where this would lead
D C
What if we marry or give up the ghost?
G D
Or we abandon those we love most?
D C
What if you carry me and lay me down
G D
Once you get used to me being around?
[Chorus]
G C G
Call the Smithsonian I made a discovery
G D
Life ain't forever and lunch isn't free
G D C G
Loved ones will break your heart with or without you
C G D G
Turns out we don't get to know everything
G C G C G C D G
[Verse 3]
D C
My bedroom's an office, my kitchen's a car
G D
My life is a joke, my bathroom's a bar
D C
I go there a lot, more than I should
G D
I know I should stop but it feels too damn good
[Chorus]
G C G
Call the Smithsonian I made a discovery
G D
Life ain't forever and lunch isn't free
G D C G
Loved ones will break your heart with or without you
C G D G
Turns out we don't get to know everything
