Real Man Chords by Todd Rundgren

[Bb] _ Thank you very much, good morning, and welcome to the Midnight K [Eb]-Show!
_ _ _ _ In case some of you are wondering why you hear music [Cm] and see no band.
Where's that band?
_ _ [Ab] I don't [Eb] see any band.
Why there is no band?
Because it's all me.
It's all me and my [Cm] 16-track machine.
_ _ _ _ [Ab] [Eb] Mixed and edited and placed on tape recording for your pleasure.
Except the vocalist [Cm] live, _ _ [Eb] because_
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] We knew it was [Bb] a [Cm] joke, thought I was [Gm] a [Cm] joke.
As a _ child
_ _ [Eb] _
[Db] I didn't know
I _ _ _
[Ab] _ [Eb] didn't know
[Ab] _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Gm] _ [Cm] _
_ _ Something
_ _ I should [Eb] know
[Ab] _ I _ _ _ _ _ didn't _ _ know
[A] [Bb] I [Eb] had _ [Bb] a vision
It _ _ was what it was when my body just [Eb] turned it _ down
And you are something you can't see
But [Ab] it's still very real [Eb] to me _
[G] You'll keep finding in the hole where I keep my soul
There it [A] is, out inside [Bb] you
There's a [C] real magic
_ _ It is [Bm] a [Am] real _ magic
Get about my [C] body, be a real _
_ _ _ I [G] _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] see you with my heart
I hear you with my heart _ _ _
_ _ _ Sometimes [Eb] it's hard to [Ab] let it go
_ _ It _
[Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] seems so cold, [Bb] green, looking down
And [Eb] I'm ready to try [Bb] it
Let emotion push me [Eb]
around
_ _ _ [Bb] [Ab] But the biggest [Eb]
chance on it all
[Db] It will shine when we [Eb] are all
_ [G] And I think I have a little spot while I'm here
[Am] _ [G] _ [A] _
There's [Bb] a [C] real magic
_ There's _ [Bm] [Am] a real magic
Forget about bad feelings, [C] you're a real _ _ _ _
Now [G] _ [Am] _ _ _ listen to this
_ [Bb] Some damn [F] world is [Bb] only hatin' [F] money
[Dm] Family _ [C] fame [Dm] and life and [C] nothing
And they all [Bb] _ [C] need him to _ [Am] _ _ criticize
[Bb] _ _
_ _ [Ab] You can laugh [Bb] at me now
[Ab] But the time comes [Bb] for everybody
And you must [Eb] _ _ decide _
[Ab] When _ [Eb] it comes along
I [Ab] wish you'd get a little [Eb] more strong
[G] Then you'll wake up in the morning crying
Oh my God
_ _ [A] _ _ [Bb] There's a [C] real man
_ _ Say [G] there's a [Am] real man
_ Got to grow up sometime
[C] You're a real _
_ _ Come on, [Bm] be a [Am] real man
Someone that says that out [Bb] loud
You're a [C] real man
Got to [G] be a [Am] real man
Don't tell yourself for [C] nothing
Be a real _
Come _ on, [G] be a [Am] real man
Take a breath, come on, [Bb] be a [C] real man
_ Everybody [G] be a [Am] real man
Get your trip together, [C] be a real _
_ _ _ Be [G] a [Am] real man _ _ _ [Gm] Thank _ _ _ _ _ you
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
