I've been having [A] a little problem [Dm]
recently, which [E] is quite [A] disturbing [Dm] musicalically.
[Gm] Involving a semi-tonal [Dm] discrepancy, [E] vocally and [A] instrumentally.
You see, [Bb] [A] musicians of different [Dm] varieties [Bb] prefer playing in particular [D] keys.
And singers too [Gm] treat [Dm] preferentially those [E] notes they tackle more [A]
proficiently.
Now you [Bb]
don't have to be a member [Dm] of Mensa [E] to understand the depth [A] of my dilemma.
[Gm] The two [Dm] elements of me favour two different keys.
Thus the riff betwixt my fingers and my tenor.

Nothing more than [F] playing instruments in F.
[E] It warms the very [A] cockles of my heart.

The trouble is that F can lead [F] me vocally.

And I like singing in F [Dm]
sharp.

F sharp.
[Bb] I'm used to be [F] beholden to my hands.
