[E] [C] [G]
[Dm] [G] [Em] [C]
[G] [Em] [C]
[G] [D] [G] [Em]
[C] [G] [D] [G]
Every time I [D] go to [G] dinner, seems like I'm [D] getting a little bit [G] thinner.
I'll sit down [D] at the breakfast [G] table.
I can [D] talk, well they're not [G] able.
When I look [D] at them I find [G] there's a single [D] question on their mind.
[G] I wish it could go back to [D] the way it [G] was.
It's not easy [D] now because
[Em] My [C] whole family thinks [G] I'm gay.
I [D] guess it's always been [Em] that way.
[C] Maybe it's cause of the way [G] that I walk.
[D] Makes them think [Em] I like [C] boys.
[G] [D] That [Em] I like [C] boys.
[G]
The goddamn [D] question just won't go [G] away.
And I get [D] asked every single [G] day.
But the way they [D] ask it is not a [G] disguise.
Like, how was your day?
[D] Do you like to kiss guys?
[G] This is the worst [D] baby, this was my fear.
[G] Now their opinions [D] are crystal [Em] clear.
Because [C] my whole family now is [G] shocked.
[D] I'm in the closet and [Em] the door is locked.
[C] Now my glory [G] days are gone.
I was [D] John Elway, [Em] now I'm Elton John.
[A] My [C] whole family now [G] suspects.
[D] Watching Spongebob, it's [Em] side effects.
[A] I'm [C] not gay and that's [G] what I said.
If [D] I'm gay, [Em] hey God, strike me dead, you know?
[C]
[G] That's [Em] weird.
[C] [G]
Just cause I'm on [D] the cheerleading team.
[G] Or my birthday party [D] at a Broadway theme.
[G] When I go outside, [D] what do I [G] see?
That the clouds in the [D] sky spell F-A-G.
[Em] Because I think [C] that God might think [G] I'm gay.
What [D] is he?
No, [Em] anyway.
My grandma gave me [C] a present just [G] last year.
And the card [D] said, happy birthday [Em] queer.
My [C] whole family thinks [G] I'm fab.
There's a [D] guy's butt, [Em] hey Bo, take a stab.
Come on, why doesn't he [C] get women?
There's no other [G] way.
It's cause I'm [D] lanky, not cause I'm [Em] gay, alright?
[C] [G] [D] Not [Em] cause I'm gay.
[C] [G] [D]
[G] Just cause I'm [D] afraid of the [G] snow.
Or my favorite color is the rainbow.
I don't mean to yell, but I [D] fear I [G] must.
Cause I'm losing the people that [D] I thought I could trust.
[Em] Because [C] even my boyfriend [G] thinks I'm gay.
Just kidding.
[D] [Em]
[C] [G] [D] [Em]
[C] You all probably think [G] I'm gay.
[D] Man, this song is [Em] counterproductive.
[C] [G] La la la [D] la la.
[Em] Because [C] my whole family thinks [G] I'm gay.
What [D] do they know, [Em] anyway?
You [C] gotta look right through the [G] haze.
Easy [D] bake oven was just a [Em] phase.
My [C] whole family thinks [G] I'm queer.
That [D] is all I ever [Em] hear.
But [C] I've been as straight [G] as a ramp.
If you don't count [Em] Bible care.
[C]
[G] [D] [Em] Bible care.
[C]
[G] I'm not gay, [Em] I swear.
