One Man Guy (by Loudon Wainwright III)


(D)People will know when they see this show 
the (G)kind of a guy I (D)am
they'll understand just what I stand for
and (G)what I just can't (A)stand
(G)they'll (A)perceive what I believe in 
and what I (G)know is (A)true
and they'll (D)recognise I'm a (G)one man guy
(A)always was through and through


I'm a (D)one man guy in the (G)morning
I'm the (D)same in the (G)afternoon
(D)One man guy when the (G)sun goes down
I (D)whistle me a one man (A)tune
(G-D)One man guy, (G)one man guy
(D)only kinda guy to (Em)be, wo-oh
I'm a (A)one man guy, I'm a (G)one man guy
and that (A)one man, wo-oh
is (D)me (-G), I'm a one man (D)guy (-A)

 
People meditate, hey that's just great 
trying to find an inner you
people depend on family and friends 
other folks to get you through
I don't know why I'm a one man guy 
and why this is a one man show
but these three cubic feet of bones and blood and meat 
are what I love and know               (-repeat chorus)

 
I'm gonna bath and shave and dress myself 
I go solo everynight
unplug the phone and sleep alone 
stay right out of sight
Sure it's kinda lonely 
yeah it's sort of sick
being your own one and only 
is a selfish dirty trick                (-repeat chorus)
