Here's to another relationship 
    F           Em
Bombed by excellent breed of gamete disease
   F              G7
I'm sure when I'm older I'll know what that means
 
C                  C/B
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could 
Am                G7
Here's to the man with his face in the mud
    F          Em
And an overcast play just taken away 
     F                G7
From the lover’s in love at the center of stage, yeah
 
F7M
Loving is fine if you have plenty of time
G6
For walking on stilts, at the edge of your mind and
F7M
Loving is good if your dick's made of wood
G6
And the dick left inside, only half understood her 
 
F7M
What makes her come and what makes her stay 
G6
What makes the animal run, run away, yeah
F7M
What makes him stall, what makes him stand
G6
And what shakes the elephant now and what makes a man 
 
F7M       G6          Am6(9)

        E7
'Cause she’s only just gone
Am                G7
Why the fuck is this day taking so long 
     F            Em
I was a lover of time and once she was mine
     F            G7
I was a lover indeed, I was covered in weed 
 
C                 E7
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
  Am                 G7
Well closer to God is the one who's in love 
  F            Em
And I walk away cause I can 
F            G7
Too many options may kill a man 
 
F7M
Loving is fine if it's not in your mind 
G6
But I've fucked it up now, too many times 
F7M
Loving is good if it's not understood 
G6
Yeah, but I'm the professor and feel that I should know 
 
F7M
What makes her come and what makes her stay
G6
What makes the animal run, run away and 
F7M
What makes him tick apart from him prick 
G6
And the lonelier side of the jealousy stick
 
F7M       G6          Am6(9)
