                     C        F           G
I see you comb your hair and gimme that grin
      F         C          F          G
It's making me spin now, spinnin' within.
          F          C
Before I melt like snow
F         G   F          C  F  G
I say Hello, how do you do!

                       C         F     G
I love the way you undress now, baby begin,
 F        C               F            G
Do you caress, honey, my heart's in a mess,
              F        C                F            G
I love your blue eyed voice, like Tiny Tim shines thru,
F           C
How do you do!
 F          G
(How do you do!)

             Am                          G
Well, here we are crackin' jokes in the corner
of our mouths,
       F                               C
And I feel like I'm laughing in a dream.
          Am                                   G
If I was young I could wait outside your school,
                                       F      G
'Cos your face is like the cover of a magazine...

Chorus:
           D#                  A#
How do you do, do you do, the things that you do?
          D#         G#       A#
No one I know could ever keep up with you.
           Cm
How do you do!
       G#         A#                 Cm   G#   A#
Did it ever make sense to you to say Bye, Bye, Bye?

I see you in that chair with perfect skin
Well, how have you been, baby, livin' in sin?
Hey, I gotta know did you say hello?
How do you do?

Well, here we are, spending time in the louder part of town
And it feels like everything's surreal
When I get old I will wait outside your house
'Cause your hands have got the power meant to heal

Chorus

Cm A#
     (Well, here we are crackin' jokes)
                Cm  A#
     How do you do!
Cm A#
    (Well, here we are spending time)
Cm A# C
     Ooooh...

How do you do the things that you do?
No-one I know could ever keep up with you
How do you do!
Did it ever make sense to you to say bye, bye, bye?
