VERSE:
       Am                      D C B
He was hurting for the answers
       F                        G F E
He was serving up the questions
       Am                   D C B
He was searching for a guru 
       F                     G F E
He was lucky that he knew you

BRIDGE:
Am          G F
 When i saw your fine physique 
     Am        G      D/F#
I was into you like a train
      C                G                 F*
And I love it when you speak you're so urbane

CHORUS:
                C     G G# F
Oh, i love your brain
                 C    G G# F
Yes, i love your brain
                 C    G G# 
Ooh, i love your brain
          Bb       F
I'm gonna say it again
          C    G G# F
Love your brain
                 C    G G# F
It's a beautiful brain
                     C    G G# 
I wanna be with your brain
        Bb              F
I wanna sleep with your brain

*I think he might play this note more than 4 times. I think he's playing it 5 times. 
 So just listen close and decide for yourself

SECOND VERSE and BRIDGE: (same chords as first):
She was looking like a Roman
She was cooking it with fire
She was talking right to me
And i couldn't unglue me
Though I am no Duke of Earl you are my chatelaine
I love the way the world drives you insane
