[F] [C]
[Bb]
Me and my brother [F] were talking to each other [C] about what makes a man [D] a man.
Is [Bb] it brain or brawn [F] or a man you were born [C] who just [Bb] couldn't [C] [D] understand?
[G] [D]
[G] Women, [A] well, [Bb]
me and my brother [F] borrowed money from mother.
[C] We knew what we had [D] to do.
[Bb] We went downstairs, [F] passed the barber and [C] gymnasium, and got [Bb] our [C] [D] arms tattooed.
Welcome to my life, I have two.
I'm a fan, how fast do you?
I have spent time interrupting, but [Bm] this can't go on, [D] I won't let you [G] be there when [A] I die.
[Bb] [F]
[C] [Bb] [C]
[Bb] May God beat me, [F] just mine said mother, but [C] my mother not too delighted.
And beat my [D] brother, [Bb] he just tattoos [F] all the ladies in the news, [C] and she thought that [Bbm] was [C] extremely [D] rude.
Welcome [Bm] [D] to my life, I have two.
I expect I'll be there too, but this [Bm] big brown man won't [D] get you.
[G] Be there when I [A] die.
[Bb]
Now [F]
[C] [Bb] [C]
[Bb] I'm older, [F] I'm tattooed all over, [C] my wife [Bb] is [D] tattooed too.
[Am] [Bb]
[F] [C]
[Bb] Tattooed too.
[D]
[N]
[Ab] [E] [Gb]
[N]
Also this song, which I think has got to be one of his best, it's one of his own compositions, which he wrote when he was about 40.
Teenager, just a mere teenager, and he called it Young Man Blues.
