A song about "finish relationship with holiday girlfriend at elephant museum, Bangkok, Thailand"

 Title: "Breaking Up Under the Elephant’s Trunk"

(Funky Groove, ~110 BPM, think Parliament/Funkadelic with a dash of country humor)

[Verse 1]

(C7)

Met my holiday girlfriend under Bangkok sun

(F7)

Hotter than the pavement, we were just havin’ fun

(G7)

Elephant museum, three heads in the air

(C7)

But all she wanted to do was fuss and glare

(C7)

We rode the skytrain by the park, I bought her ice cream twice

(F7)

But she said, "It’s too damn hot," and nothin’ I did was right

(G7)

Prayed to God for patience—He must’ve took the day off too

(C7)

‘Cause my Asian holiday girlfriend had that bad mood flu

[Chorus]

(Funk guitar riff – C7 – F7 – G7 – C7)

It’s hard to hold her hand in Thailand when she’s crazy as can be

Underneath that huge-ass statue starin’ down at me

Sun is shining, sweat is pouring, but her face is thundercloud gray

God don’t answer prayers at the elephant museum anyway

[Verse 2]

(C7)

She said it’s her period, I said"I’ll buy you some cake,"

(F7)

But she rolled her eyes so hard, I felt the whole earth shake

(G7)

Tried to tell a joke but she just sighed and turned away

(C7)

Guess romance and elephant trunks don’t mix today(C7)

So I snapped a selfie, tried to make her smile again

(F7)

But she just muttered, "Boy, you’re driving me insane"

(G7)

Lost in translation, or maybe just bad luck

(C7)

Breaking up in Bangkok—trunk and all, we’re stuck[Chorus]

(Funk guitar riff – C7 – F7 – G7 – C7)

It’s hard to hold her hand in Thailand when she’s crazy as can be

Underneath that huge-ass statue starin’ down at me

Sun is shining, sweat is pouring, but her face is thundercloud gray

Guess love won’t bloom at the elephant museum today[Verse 3]

(C7)

We wandered through the market, dodging tuk-tuks and rain

(F7)

She bought a pink umbrella and I just felt the strain

(G7)

Tried to say "I love you," but it came out all wrong

(C7)

Now I’m singing solo in this Bangkok breakup song(F7)

She hailed a motorbike and vanished in the crowd

(G7)

Left me with my selfie stick, feeling lost and proud

(C7)

Maybe someday I’ll laugh about this whole parade

But tonight, I’m just a tourist with a love that couldn’t stay

[Chorus]

(Funk guitar riff – C7 – F7 – G7 – C7)

It’s hard to hold her hand in Thailand when she’s crazy as can be

Underneath that huge-ass statue starin’ down at me

Sun is shining, sweat is pouring, but her face is thundercloud gray

God don’t answer prayers at the elephant museum anyway
