Biography:
Said the Whale is a Canadian band formed in 2007 as a collaboration between songwriters Ben Worcester and Tyler Bancroft. The pair’s debut EP, Taking Abalonia, featured sunny west coast indie pop, with breezy harmonies, shimmering guitars and lyrical tributes to their home city of Vancouver, “nodding at times to the sea shanties of Neutral Milk Hotel and at others to the boat-shoe-gazing of Vampire Weekend” said The National Post. In 2008, the album was re-released as Howe Sounds/Talking Abalonia

Okay 100% sure this is right i watched it from a performance done on 100.5 The
Peak Vancouver (link below)... and this is what i got, and it sounds pretty damn good!
If you're doing this song with two guitars, then the second guitar goes like this... capo on 7th
instead of C G F, it goes G D C
instead of Dm G C F, it goes Am D G C
Intro: C G F
C G F
I am a lovesick gentleman
C G F
Who pines and pines over the smallest things
C G F
Most of them are truly inconsequential
C G F
They are inconsequential things
Dm G
So I'll write you the longest letter
C F
Describing my feelings and other stupid things
Dm G
I'll cross my fingers that your heart melts
C
And you look at me, and tell me
F
"Darling, where have you been?"
C G F
I am an uncool Canadian kid
C G F
Awed and inspired by all the popular guys
C G F
Most of them are truly irresponsible
C G F
They do irresponsible things
Dm G
But I'm just a heart broke gentleman
C F
A gentleman never seems to get gentle women
Dm G
I need a small town girl
C F
To follow me home and teach me how to be a real man
C G F C
I Am A gentleman
G F C
An old soul gentleman
G F C
A plain jane gentleman
G F
Hold-the-door-for-you gentleman
--Solo--
Dm G C F > X2
C G F
I Am A gentleman
G F C
An old soul gentleman
G F C
A plain jane gentleman
G F C
Hold-the-door-for-you gentleman
G F C
A no good gentleman
G F C
A stupid born gentleman
G F C
A gentle, gentle, gentleman.
