Here are the chords to the song "Manchild" by Steven Page (formerly of Barenaked

couldn't quite figure those out. Still, hope you enjoy!

Sweetheart,
What do you think I do all day?
I make Art
When inspiration blows my way.
Oh, the shouting?
I'm getting kind of used to that
But this doubting my intentions?
Well honey, that just makes me sad.

So I'm waiting
Let's cut it with the heavy sighs.
[Chorus] (x2)
Darling, you're talking to a manchild
Darling, you're talking to a manchild now
Speak slowly, speak slowly
