C
Hey, my best friend's a butcher,
                       Em
he has sixteen knives
    C
He carries them all over the town
                     Em
At least he tries oh look it stopped snowing
 C                                               Em
My best friend's from Poland and oh he has a beard
          C
But they caught him with his case in a public place
     B
That is what we had feared

Chorus:
    G                    F#               Em
He severed segments and secretly liked that
   G                        F#
He always took the time to speak with me
             Em
I liked him for that
    G                    F#                Em
He severed segments and secretly liked that
   G                   F#
He always took the time
   A                   B
He always took the time

My best friend's a butcher, he has sixteen knives
He carries them all over the town at least he tries
Oh look, it stopped snowing
And my best friend's from Poland and, um,
he has a beard
But they caught him with his case in a public place
That is what he had feared

Chorus:
He severed segments and secretly liked that
He always took the time to speak with me and
I liked him for that
He severed segments and secretly liked that
(What is this a throwaway?
What is this a throwaway?)
He was growing on me
(What is this a throwaway?
What is this a throwaway?)
(What is this a throwaway?
What is this a throwaway?)
He was growing on me
(What is this a throwaway?
What is this a throwaway?)
(What is this a throwaway?
What is this a throwaway?)
