THE OUTDOOR TYPE

Capo 2nd Fret


C  C/B bass Am7  (2x)

C            C/B              Am7
Always had a roof above me    Always paid the rent
C        C/B       Am7
but I've never set foot inside a tent
F             G       C    C/B Am7 
Can't build a fire to save my  life
F                                 C  C/B Am7
I lied about being the outdoor type


Repeat same chords for second verse.

i've never slept out underneath the stars,
the closest that i came to that was one time my car
broke down for an hour in the suburbs at night
i lied about being the outdoor type.


  Em           F                                     G
Too scared to let you know you knew what you were looking for
  Em           F                                  G
I lied until I fit the bill god bless the great indoors
   F           G       C  C/B  Am7
I lied about being the outdoor type

     F                                               G   Hold G
I've never owned a sleeping bag let alone a mountain bike

C  C/B  Am7 2x


3rd verse--chords are same as first and second verse

i can't go away with you on a rock climbing weekend
what if somethings on tv and its never shown again
its just as well i'm not invited i'm afraid of heights
i lied about being the outdoor type

    F              G                 C       C/B  Am7               
Never learned to swim can't grow a beard or even fight
      F                           C
I lied about being the outdoor type
