I have nightmares about this kind of thing.
[E] And this is a song about that isolated [G]
view of mine.
Although Rich knows it and he's always welcome.
You too, you too, Suzanne.
People will know when they see this show
[C]
The kind of a [G] guy
They'll understand what I stand [C] for
And what I just can't [D] stand
[C] They'll [D] perceive what I believe [C] in
And what [D] I know is true
[G] And they'll recognize I'm a one man guy
[C] I always was, through [D] and through
I'm [G] a one man [C] guy in the morning
[G] I'm the same in the [C] afternoon
[G] One man [C] guy when the sun goes [G] down
I wrestle me a one man tune
I'm a one [C] man guy, one [G] man guy
All it kinda [C] gotta be
[Am] One man [C] guy, I'm a one man [D] guy
One man, yeah, yeah, yeah
[G] I'm a [C]
[G] one man guy
[C] People
[Em] [G]
meditate, that's just great
[C] Tryin' to [G] find an inner you
And people depend on family and friends
[C] Other folks to pull them [D] through
[C] One
[D] man guy, [C] why this is a [D] one man show
[G]
But these three cubic feet of bone and [C] blood and meat
Are what I [D] love and know
[G] I'm a one man guy [C] in the morning
[G] I'm the same in the [C] afternoon
[G] One man [C] guy when the sun goes [G] down
I wrestle me a one [C] man tune
[G] I'm a one man [C] guy, [G] one man guy
All it kinda [C] gotta be
[Am] One man [C] guy, I'm a one man [D] guy
One man, yeah, yeah, [G] yeah
I'm a one man kind of a [C] guy
[G] I'm
[C]
[G] gonna bathe and shave and dress [C] myself
[D] And eat solo [G] every night
Unplug the phone, sleep alone
[C] Stay way out [D] of sight
[C] Sure [Em] it's kinda [D] lonely,
[C] [G] sorta [D] sick
Being [G] your own one and only
[C] Is a selfish, [D] dirty trick
[G] I'm a one man guy [C] in the morning
[G] I'm the same in the [C] afternoon
[G] One man guy when the sun goes down
I wrestle me a one [C] man tune
