All The Nasties

												
C/G Am9 Bbmaj7
If it came to pass that they should ask
C
What could I tell them
C/G Am9 Bbmaj7
Would they criticize behind my back
C
Maybe I should let them
F C Am7
Oh if only then and only then
D9 Dm7/g Gsus4
They would understand
C F
They'd turn a full-blooded city boy
C/G F C
Into a full-blooded city man

C/G
If they could face it
Am9 Bbmaj7
I could take it in their eyes
C F/C C F/C
Oh I know I'd make it
C/G
Their tiny minds
Am7 Bbmaj7 F
And sacred cows just fake it
C Am7
If only then and only then
D9 Dm7/g Gsus4
They would understand
C C/E F
They'd turn a full-blooded city boy
C/G G7/B C C7/E F C/G G7/B
Into a full-blooded city man

Bbm Eb7/Bb
But I know the way they want me
Abmaj7
In the way they publicize
Bbm Eb7/Bb
If they could turn their focus off
Abmaj7
To the image in their eyes
C/G G9sus4 C/G F
Maybe it would help them, help them understand
Maybe it would help them, help them understand
Maybe it would help them, help them understand
C F
That a full-blooded city boy
C/G F C
Is now a full-blooded city man

C/G
Do do do do do do do do do
Am9
Do do do do do do do do do
Bbmaj7 C F/C C F/C
Do do do do do do do do do do
C/G
Oh my soul
Am9
Oh my soul
Bbmaj7
Oh my soul
