Acts of Man Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
I [C]am that dickhead in the kitchen
Giving wine [G]to your [C]best girl's glass
I am the amateur pornographer
Unpleasant publisher by hand

[Verse 2]
[C]Not here, not here, [F]heroic acts of [C]man
Not here, not here,
heroic act[F]s of [C]man

[Interlude 1]
[C][F][C]
[F][C][F][C]

[Verse 3]
Oh I [C]see the [G]stum[C] bling
pinstripe trouser
The flecks of [F]sick on an office [C]shoe
[G]Part [C]of [G]the [C]fatty British average
That lives in the [F]houses [C]around you

[Verse 4]
[C]
[G]Not her[Am]e, not[G] her[Am]e,
[F]heroic [C]acts [G]of man
[C]Not [F]here, [Am]not [G]here,
[Am]hero[F]ic acts [G]of m[C]an

[Verse 5]
[C]
[G]Let's [C]all crowd round
the cowering body
Throw stocky [F]fingers,
stick[C]s and stones
Let's promise every girl
we marry
We'll always [F]love them,
[C]though we probably won't
[F][C]

[Verse 6]
While a knight in shitty armour
Rips [F]the drunk out of [C]her [F]dress
One [C]man tears into another
Hides [F]a coward's [C]heart
in a lion's [F]chest[C]
Man, he [Am]breeds although he should

[Verse 7]
[Am]
[G]n't[Am]
Breeding [F]just because [G]he [C]comes
Acts the [Am]father for [G]a minute
[Am]Until the worst in[F]stin[G]cts return[C]

[Verse 8]
[C]
Not [Am]here, [G]not [Am]here,
[F]heroic [G]acts of [C]man[G][C][F][C]
[G]Not [Am]here, [G]not [Am]here, [F]hero[G]ic acts of [C]man

[Verse 9]
[C]I h[G]ave never wanted
[C]more to be your man
And build a house around you
But I am [G]just like all the rest of them
[Am]Sorr[F]y, selfish, trying to im[C]prove

[Verse 10]
[C]
[G]I'm here, [Am]I'm [F]here, not heroic but I t[C]ry
[G]I'm here, I'm [F]here,
not heroic but [C]I try
