[Eb]
We are men and we like [Ebm] to sing [D] in big
[B] accords and close harmony.
[Eb] Our songs all sound [Bm] the [C] same [Gb] and [Eb] most of them are really lame.
[Ebm] But though we may not always [Fm] inspire, at least we're not a
[B] women's choir.
[Gb]
[Ab] [D]
[Fm] We like to
[Gb] [Ab]
[Gb] sing in a little louder.
Like we miss our puberty, [Bm] we [Ebm]
sing a little louder.
[F]
[Eb] To [N]
sing a high C.
[Cm]
[D]
[Eb] [Gm] We [E] sing together [F] to smart our [D] beats.
[G] We're just first [Ab] gathered [Eb] when poor people
[N] are shooed.
We love a set just because it may crack when we try to sing at best.
[D]
[Ab] We [G] don't sing [E] too high and [F] we don't sing too low.
[G] And we're not as [E] arrogant as the priest [B] and his renown.
[Em] [F]
[C] Of the pips we've got our vocals to our [D] second best.
[G]
[Fm] Baritones [C] [Cm]
[N]
are my [A] father's sexiest.
[G]
We [Eb] will sing when friends [Bb] for the time.
[E] With vibratos high [F] my old [B]
[C] fortune our praise [Gm] awaits.
[A]
[N] We [Cm] are tired of rude progressions.
Walking [Fm] makes life [C] grander [Ab] sessions.
Where [C] all we see is that [G] stupid
[Ab] dip-diddy-dip-dive.
We try so [Am] hard with [C] all [F] our might to [G] [Am] sing solo we shake the light.
[Em] We wish we [D] had [Db]
voices [Gbm] like [G] James [Ab] Earl Jones or [F] Barry White.
[Cm]
Our [Db] stupid, our throat, [C] our hurting and our low [F] singing sounds more [C] like birthing.
In the places we'll keep [G] singing for
[Bm] [N] us.
We are men we like to sing [Gb] in big block chords and [Cm] go smarmy.
[G]
[E] [Am] Our songs [C] all sound the same like that [F] rewrites of [Eb] there is nothing like a [C] [Eb]
day.
[F] And though our effort [N] consists of drinking songs and sailor songs and barbershop quartets.
We thank God every day [C] from our head down [F] to [C] our toes.
And we are not sopranos [G] or [Dm]
[C] altos
[F] or tenors.
We are [C] men.
