[E] People will know when they see this [A] show the [B] kind of [E] a guy I am
They'll recognize just what I [A] stand for and what I [B] just can't stand
They'll [A]
[B] perceive what I believe [A] in and what I [B] know is true
[E] They'll recognize I'm a one [A] man guy with his [B] worth to endure
[E] People meditate, hey that's just [F#m] great, [B] trying to find [E] the inner you
People depend on family and [A] friends and other folks to [B] pull them through
[A]
I don't [B] know why I'm a one man [A] guy, why I'm [B] a one man show
[E] But these three cubic feet of bone [A] and blood and meat are all [B] I love and know
[E] Cause I'm a one man [A] guy in the morning, [E] same in [A] the afternoon
[E]
One man [A] guy when the sun goes [E] down, I wish I made a [A] one man [E] tune
One [A] man guy, one [E] man guy, only [A] kind of got to pay
[F#m] I'm a one man guy, I'm a one man [B] guy, I'm the one man [E] guy is me
[A] [E] I'm gonna bathe and shave and dress [A] myself and be [B] solo [E] every night
I'll turn the phone, sleep [A] alone, stay way out of [B] sight
Sure [A] [B] it's kinda lonely, [A]
yeah [B] it's sort of sick
[E] Being your own one and only [A] is a bit [B] selfish treating
Cause [E] I'm a one man [A] guy in the morning, [E]
same in [A] the afternoon
[E] One man [A] guy when the sun goes [E] down, I wish I made [A] a one man [E] tune
One [A] man guy, one [E] man guy, only [A] kind of got to pay
[F#m] I'm a one man guy, I'm a one man [B] guy, I'm the one [E] man guy is [A] me
