Rufus Wainwright - One Man Guy (live at Montreux) chords
Start Jamming...
I did one of my mom's songs before,
and now I'm gonna do one of my dad's songs,
The Great Loudon Wainwright III,
and I'm gonna sing it with Teddy Thompson over here,
and also my dear friend, Cherise Blackman
will sing it with me.
So let's folk out, let's folk off here.
Here we go.
[E]
People will know when they see this show
the kind [B] of a guy [E] I am.
They'll recognize just what I stand for
and [A] what I just can't [B] stand.
[A] They'll perceive what [B] I believe in
[A] and what I know is [B] true.
[E] And they'll recognize I'm a one man guy
[A] always was through [B] and through.
And [E] people meditate, well that's just [A] great,
trying to find a new [E]
you.
People depend on family and [A] friends
and other folks [B] to pull them through.
[A] I don't know [B] why
[A] this is [B] a one man show.
[E] These three cubic feet of bone and [A] blood
meant me what I [B] love and do.
[E] I'm a one man [A] guy in the morning,
[E] same in the [A] afternoon.
[E] One man guy [A] when the sun goes [E] down,
I whistle me a one [A] man tune.
[E] One man [A] guy, one man guy.
[E] Only kinda [A] gotta be.
[F#m] I'm a one man [B] guy.
One man
[E] is [A] man.
[E]
I'm gonna bathe and shave and dress myself
[A] and eat solo [E] every night.
Unplug my phone, sleep alone,
[A] and stay away [B] out of sight.
[A] [B]
[A] [B] I'm sick, being your own [A] is a dirty, [B] selfish trick.
[E] One man guy [A] in the morning,
[E] same in the [A] afternoon.
[E] One man guy [A] when the sun goes [E] down,
I whistle me a one [A] man tune.
[E] One man [A] guy, one man [E] guy.
Only kinda [A] gotta be.
[F#m] I'm a one man guy.
I'm a one man guy.
[B] One man guy [A] in the morning,
[E] same in the [A] afternoon.
[E] One man guy [A] when the sun goes [E] down,
I whistle me a one [A] man tune.
[E] One man [A] guy, one man [E] guy.
Only kinda [A] gotta be.
[F#m] I'm a one man guy.
I'm a one man [B] guy.
One man [E] is [A] man.
