Verse 1
Well It SDm9tumbles And It Falls Off Of Almost Every Tongue
Give A Gm7Listen And You'll Hear
It's Dm9Workin' Like A Landmine In Almost Every Sentence
It's An AsGm7sault To My Mind's Ear
Yeah It DmMight Have Started Back With Jack Kerouac
Probably More Than Gm7Likely It Was Maynard G. Krebs
It's The Dm94 Letter Word That Used To Mean 'As If'
And The Gm7Meaning's Covered In Cobwebs Dm9       Gm7​
CobwebsDm9       Gm7​

Verse 2
Used To Dm9Be A Preposition Then It Was A Conjunction
Now It's Gm7Used As An Audible Pause
Oh I Dm9Hate It When I Hear It Especially When I See It
Gotta SGm7tamp It Out There Ought To Be Some Laws
College Dm9Boys Valley Girls Mall Rats Grandmammas
EveryGm7body's Mis-Usin' That Word
I Dm9Heard It Four Times In One Poor Little Sentence
It Was The Gm7Saddest Sound I Ever Have Heard

Bridge
C I Suppose You Could Blame It On MyF Generation
Chickens GFrom The 60S Finally Comin' Into CRoostG​
C I've Been Sayin' It Myself For Over F30 Years Now
G Just To Give My Cool Quota Just A Little CBitty Kind Of A Boost
Dm But When I Hear It,F I Can't Stand It
G Especially Coming Out Of The Mouths Of One Of My COwn KidsG​
C It's Been Taught And God,F What Have We Wrought?
G Give A Listen Here, What Do We Dig?C     Gm7​

Verse 3
Dm9I Prefer Ah Or Er
Gm7You Can Rest Assured
If You're Dm9Sayin' What You Mean Then It Don't Mean A Thing
It's Just An Gm7Ugly Little 4 Letter Word
Doesn't Dm9Anybody Care Or Am I The Only One?
Am I Just SGm7tuck Back In Some Kind Of A Past?
Dm9Maybe It's Harmless But It Feels Like A Virus
And It Gm7Sounds Like It's Catchin' On Fast
