E         C           G         A               C       B
   Hit my snooze alarm for the 27th time
E               C       G        A              C            B
   Just don't feel like going to work - I think I'll call my boss then I'm
A  B        C     D         A
   Gonna hack and cough and wheeze
B           C       D
Swear I've got some strange disease
A            B       C         D
What's that little twerp gonna say?  Hey...

(Chorus) - (Hard rock style, lots of crashes, overdriven guitar)
E    C C      G               A
          I'm callin' in sick today
E    C C  G               A
          Callin' in sick today

I could shine my pennies or clean my lava lamp
I could spend all day in my underwear watching "Ernest Goes To Camp"
I could sit and count my hair
I could burp my Tupperware
I'm not busy now anyway.   Hey..........

(Chorus)
E    C C      G               A
          I'm callin' in sick today
E    C C  G               A
          Callin' in sick today
E    C C  G                       A
          Ain't going to work, no way
E    C C  G               A             G
          Callin' in sick today

(Bridge) - (same as chorus)
B       A  B               A
  I can do anything I want to
B   A    B    A
  I am invincible now
B    A      B     A
     I'm on fire, baby
      B                         D
  I'm alive, I'm alive, can you hear me, world?
        E
  I'm alive!

Maybe I'll spend all day staring at the sun and trying not to squint
Maybe I'll make a huge color tapestry from my bellybutton lint
When I'm sick of takin' abuse
I just make up some lame excuse
Freedom's just seven digits away.  Hey...

(Chorus)
E    C C      G               A
          I'm callin' in sick today
E    C C  G               A
          Callin' in sick today
E    C C  G                               A
          Ain't going to work, no way
E    C C  G                     A               G
          Callin' in sick today
