Lyrics

“It’s him or me.”

That’s what he (G7)said,

but I can’t choose

be tween a (C9)ve gan and a (F)pot head.

So I chose you,

be cause you’re sweet

and you give me lots of lov (C7)in’,

and you (F)eat meat.

And (C)that’s how you be came

my on ly (G)man of the (C)hour.

You nev er (C)lie,

and you don’t cheat,

and you (C)don’t have an y bag gage tied to your (F)four feet.

Do I de (C)serve

to be the one

who will (C)feed you break fast, (C7)lunch and din ner, and take you to the (Fm)park at dawn?

(C)Will you real ly be

my on ly (G)man of the (C)hour.

I know you’ll nev er bring me (C)flow ers;

flow ers, (G13)they will on ly die.

And though we’ll (Fm)nev er take a (C)show (Bb7)er to geth (A7)er,

I (D7)know

you’ll nev er make me (G7)cry.

You nev er

(C)ar gue;

you don’t e ven (G)talk.

And I (C)like the way you let (C7)me lead you

(F)when we go out (F#dim7)side and walk.

(C)Will you real ly be

my on ly (G7)man

of the (C9)hour,

my on ly man

of the (C7)hour,

my on ly (G)man of the hour?

(Woof!)
