   G
Oh if I were enlightened
    C 
you wouldn't bother me 
          D7
you could leave your socks 
                   G
and underwear from here to infinity.
                    
You could come in anytime
            C               A
you like no fear of getting caught
   D                                   
If I were enlightened 
        G         D   G
but I'm not, Yet!

   G
If I were more like Buddha 
          C
You could do just what you like.
       D7
I'd embrace the other women
     G
that came straight down your pike
        
Cuz I'd recall my oneness and
   C               A
forgive like I was taught
   D
If I were more like Buddha
          G           D   G
But she's not, Yet!

Chorus:

G
Oh I meditate and contemplate
    D
Sometimes I even levitate in hopes

that you won't irritate the heaven
       G
out of me,  I take tantra and say
          C               A
mantras a lot more than I want' a
   D                           G                  
I even went and bought a Bodhi Tree
    D                            G
She even went and bought a Bodhi Tree

    G
If everything were perfect
     C
I'd be the greatest wife
D7
I would not obsess about
     G
Beginning your next life
             
I'd see your karma as my dharma
       C              A
and forget we've ever fought
    D
If everything were perfect
         G         D   G
But it's not, Yet!

Chorus:

G
Oh I meditate and contemplate
    D
Sometimes I even levitate in hopes

that you won't irritate the heaven
       G                                
out of me, I take Yoga in a toga
       C           A
that I got in Calistoga
   D                           G                  
I even went and bought a Bodhi Tree
    D                            G
She even went and bought a Bodhi Tree

Bridge:

G      D
Om, Om Omigawd
D      G
Om, Om Omigawd


   G
If I could just surrender and 
C
learn to love what is
  D7
I wouldn't care my toilet seat
    G
is covered with your whiz
  
I wouldn't care I caught you
      C            A
in my bra and underpants
   D
If I could just surrender
        G            D  G       
But she can't, Yet!

Chorus:

        G
Oh I meditate and contemplate
    D
Sometimes I even levitate in hopes

that you won't irritate the heaven
       G            
out of me, My aura was a horror
     C             A
so I memorized the Torah
  D                            G                  
I even went and bought a Bodhi Tree
D                            G
Now she has a frickin' Bodhi Tree

Outro:

G      D        D      G
Om, Om Omigawd  Om, Om Omigawd
G      D         D  G
Om, Om Omigawd   Omigawd    Ohhh?
