Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Key: F#m
C#/E# is exchangable with Fdim (really E#dim in this key) or C#7/E#. To me adding the 7th sounds
way nicer but it's down to your preference.
[Intro]
|F#m C#/E# |F#m C#/E# |D |Bm7 |
|F#m C#/E# |F#m C#/E# |F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E# (not in strict time at end)
[Verse]
F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E#
There was a love affair in this building
F#m C#/E#
The kind of love affair
D Bm7 F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E#
That every respectable building must keep as a legend
F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E# F#m
Slowly festering through an innocent "By the way,
C#/E#
have you heard?"
D Bm7 F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E#
He was perfect except for the fact that he was an engi- neer
[Bridge]
F#m C#7/G# F#m/A F#7/A# Bm7add11
And mothers pre - fer doctors
Cdim7 C#
And law - awyers
[Interlude]
|F#m C#/E# |F#m C#/E# |F#m C#/E# |F#m C#/E# |
|D |Bm7 |F#m C#/E# |F#m C#/E# |
|F#m/C# |Cdim7 |C# |C# |
[Verse]
F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E#
Yet despite this imperfection
F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E#
He was clean-looking and respectable-looking
D Bm7
And you'll never find a mother
F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E#
Who doesn't appreciate a natural man
F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E#
So he grew healthy aloe vera plants by the window
D Bm7
Healthy teeth in his mouth
F#m C#/E# F#m C#/E#
Healthy hair on his head
[Bridge]
F#m C#7/G# F#m/A F#7/A# Bm7add11 Cdim7 C#
He grew heal- thy wavy brown hair on his head
F#m C#7/G# F#m/A F#7/A# Bm7add11
The kind, the kind that babies always go for
Cdim7 C#
With sticky little fingers
