[Intro 1]
[G][D][A][G]

[Verse 1]
Me and my brother [G]were
talk[D]ing to each other
'Bout [A]what makes a [B]man a man
Was it [G]brain or brawn,
or the [D]month you were born
[A]We just couldn't understand
[B]

[Verse 2]
Our old man didn't [E]like
our ap[B]pearance
He said that only women [E]wear long hair
[F#]

[Verse 3]
So [G]me and my brother borrowed
[D]money from Mother
[A]We knew what we had to [G]do[B]
We [G]went downstairs,
past the [D]barber and gymnasium
And [A]got our arms tat[G]tooed[B]

[Verse 4]
[B]Welcome to my life, [C]tat[B]too[C]
I'm a man [B]now, thanks [C]to you
I ex[B]pect I'll re[F#]gret you but the [Abm]skin
graft man won't [F#]get you
You'll [E]be there when I [F#]die

[Interlude 1]
Tattoo
[F#][G][D][A][G]

[Verse 5]
[G]My dad beat me 'cause
mine [D]said "Mother"
But my mother [A]naturally liked it
and beat [G]my [B]brother
'Cause [G]his tattoo was of
[D]a lady in the nude
And my [A]mother thought that
was ex[G]tremely rude
[B]

[Verse 6]
[B]Welcome [C]to my life, tat[B]too
We've a long time together, me and [C]you
[B]I expect I'll reg[F#]ret you but t[G#m]he skin
graft man won't [F#]get you
You'll [E]be there [F#]when [G]I[D][A][G]
die

[Verse 7]
Tattoo
[G]Now I'm older, I'm tat[D]tooed all over
My [A]wife is tattooed [B]too
[G]A rooty-toot-toot,
rooty-tooty-toot-toot
Rooty-toot-toot tattoo [D]tattoo tattoo
tattoo tattoo [A]tattoo tattoo tattoo [G]too
To you
[B]

[Verse 8]
