Man of Letters

Tone: 33
(E. Piano)

Bm7, G#-C#-D#-F#, G-A-D-G#, C-D-F#-G

A gentleman and a scholar
Now tell me really, who are ya
I heard you rhyme without reason
Come on that's practically treason
I underrated the monotony
Fell into a cacophony
You swept, took out the top three
I learned that game's just not for me
You see what you wanna see
Not what's really there
Guy walked by in a monkey suit
All covered in hair
And you stood there, just admiring
Like a sparkling diamond ring
Your success, so inspiring
Your hard work, never tiring
I guess I'll never compete
With all your lies and deceit
Arranged your stories like a fleet
I hope that someday you meet
With the ergodicity
Snap you out of your complacency
Like a branch breaking off a tree
Like I turn on the lights and you see
I confess to you one thing
You're like a mirror of me
And I've sat in that same seat
And I've walked down that same street
I guess that makes us brothers
And I'm sure there are others
With these same shoes on their feet
That's all for now, stay sweet
