Intro:

D

Verse 1:

           D
She plays 'Wipeout' on the drums,
    Dmaj7
The squirrels and the birds come,
Em
 Gather round to sing the guitar.
   Gmaj7                      D
Oh I, have you got nothing to say?

Verse 2:

         D
When all words fail she speaks,
    Dmaj7
Her mix tapes a masterpiece,
Em
 Walks through the garden,
So the roses can see,
   Gmaj7                      D
Oh I, have you got nothing to say?

Chorus 1: 

            F#m7
And you can see,
    F7             Em7
The daisies in her footsteps.
      G6            Edim
Dande-lions, butter-flies,
I wanna be:
D
 Kate, Kate, Kate, Kate.

Verse 3:

      D
Every-day she wears the same thing,
  Dmaj7
I think she smokes pot,
      Em
She's everything I want,
She's everything I'm not.
   Gmaj7                      D
Oh I, have you got nothing to say?

Chorus 1: 

               F#m7
She never gets wet,
    F7                Em7
She smiles and it's a rainbow,
        G6             Edim
And she speaks and she breathes,
	   D
I wanna be Kate.

Middle 8:

Am7          Gmaj7
 Down by the Rosemary and Cameron,
Gm7                         Fmaj7
 She hands out The Bhagavad Gita.
Fm7                     Bb7
 I see her around every couple days,
Em7                  Edim
 I wanna meet her so I can say;
    D     Gm
Hey Kate.

Interlude:

D              Dmaj7
 Ooh la la la, ooh la la la,
Em                Gmaj7  D
 Ooh la la la, la.

D              Dmaj7
 Ooh la la la, ooh la la la,
Em                Gmaj7  D
 Ooh la la la, la.

Chorus 2: 

               F#m7
She never gets wet,
    F7                Em7
She smiles and it's a rainbow,
        G6
You can see,
         Edim
I wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna be...

Coda:

D
 Kate, Kate, Kate,

D
 Kate, Kate,
Kate, Kate,
Gm
 Na na na na na na.
