[Intro]
N.C.
[Verse 1]
N.C.
I Am 35 and I'm very much alive,
N.C.
I mean Jim Morrison was just a little kid when he died,
N.C.
There's the story of Icarus and his fall,
N.C.
And something follows me around that connects me to it all.
[Verse 2]
Am FI get the feeling it's growing stronger lately,
Dm AmI tried to hose it down,
AmWith the whitest paint of all,
CBut this shadow of mine still drives me crazy,
F Dm G EmStanding dark and threateningly erect against the wall.
[Chorus]
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
Am EmWooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh,
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
F Dm G EmWooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh.
[Verse 3]
Am EmI'm still wondering what's worse, your mediocre sins,
Am EmOr that you're writing for everyone's approval again,
Am Em7But then again me, whenever I get lonely,
F Dm G EmI start writing for you and your approval only.
[Verse 4]
Am EmSo what was I supposed to Do with you babe,
Am EmI know you love your combination of poetry and jazz,
Am EmWell I'm eloquent, but not that eloquent,
F Dm G EmI can state something profound about your tits and ass.
[Chorus]
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
Am EmWooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh,
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
F Dm GWooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh.
[Verse 5]
Em AmI Am dangerous, but I'm discreet about violence,
AmI'm the midnight hour striking the city clock in silence,
Am EmI Am dangerous, but I'm discreet about violence,
F Dm G EmUntil they're turning up the heat and I'm burning up in fire.
[Verse 6]
Am EmIn Papa New Guinea there lives a tribe,
Am EmWho turn the boys into men with a rite,
Am EmThey believe they have to consume the semen of the adults,
FSo their maturity can take shape,
F FWell that's fucking weird,
F Dm G EmI guess I should have blown a man before I met you babe.
[Verse 7]
Am EmI fought a holy war but believing I did not,
Am EmUntil they showed me the wall where the infidels were shot,
Am EmI hung around for the chase till I lost track of the scent,
F Dm G EmThen I joined the statisticians for 33 percent.
[Verse 8]
Am EmThen I hung around with the spiritual,
Am EmBut they had a pissing test I just couldn't beat,
Am EmSo I joined the prophets of bad weather,
F Dm G EmUntil one day my sunglasses betrayed me.
[Chorus]
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
Am EmWooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh,
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
F Dm G*Wooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh.
[Verse 9]
AmThere's a woodpecker that keeps me up at night,
AmYou just wait for that tree to come down on my pride,
AmI'm obsessing over my artist life,
F Dm G Em Am EmI'm obsessed with the idea of being obsessed with an artist life you see, ooh,
Am Em Am EmAnd I'm working on an idea David Bowie had ages before me,
F Dm GBut I just keep grinding away at the factory.
[Verse 10]
Em Am EmCause I'm 35 and I'm very much alive,
Am EmI mean Jim Morrison was just a little kid when he died,
Am EmBut I'm gonna live a good life I'm gonna live a straight life,
F Dm G EmThe moment I figure out what the fuck that looks like.
[Verse 11]
Am EmOne day they made it clear that the teaching had begun,
Am EmWhen I saw how to kill a boy who's outnumbered five to one,
Am EmHair grew in places where it was not supposed to grow,
F Dm G EmI wanted to be mature but not so mature that it would show.
[Interlude]
F Dm G*Aah . . .
[Chorus]
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
Am EmWooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh,
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
F Dm G EmWooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh,
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
Am EmWooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh,
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
F Dm G*Wooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh.
[Verse 12]
N.C.
I would talk bad about my mother for you,
N.C.
But please don't ask me to,
N.C.
I would fall on my sword for you,
N.C.
But please don't ask me to,
Am EmI would step into Indian traffic for you,
Am EmBut please don't ask me to,
Am EmI would draw all the prophets for you,
Am EmBut please don't ask me to,
Am EmI would pull a stranger's hair out the shower drain for you,
Am Em But please,
Am EmI would take a walk on the Kinsey scale for you,
F*Well we both know that's not true,
F Dm G EmIt's just what I have to tell myself I did for you.
[Outro]
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
Am EmWooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh,
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
F Dm G EmWooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh,
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
Am EmWooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh,
Am EmIt takes a man to love you baby,
F Dm G*Wooh ooh ooh ooh oooh oooh.
