E|E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------||


Tuning: Standard

D                         G
Got a man, call him my boyfriend, think I've fallen in love
D                                         G
The only man that gives me the things that I am worthy of
D                                         G
Hugs me and holds me, kisses me softly, calls me back right away
D                                       G
He communicates his feelings to me and cares what I have to say
He says

D
"Baby, I love you, baby, I need you
G
Never gonna let you go"

D                                         G
Writes me love notes, takes me shopping and to Broadway shows
D                             G
Talk to him like he is a girlfriend, slumber party every night
D                            G          
I've never felt so happy before, he's almost Mr. Right
Bm                          A
But I think he's hot and I think he's sweet
D                            G
And I think he's gay and I think he's neat
Bm                  A
Okay, okay, so my boyfriend's gay
G                       A
But what does it matter anyway?

G                            A
He hasn't come out of the closet yet
D                                   G
'Til then, I'll take all that I can get

(2,3,4)
G                      A
But he doesn't think I know
            D              G
But I know, I know, I've always known
G                        A
If he doesn't think it shows
               D                      G
But it shows, for sure, it's always shown
Em                                   
You might think it's a little sad
     G                             A
But he's the best lover that I've ever had

 G                     A
At night, when we're lying in bed
         D                           G
He's not hard, it's okay, 'cause he gives me head
G              A
Like my mom always says
D                                   G
"It takes more than a pound to be good in bed"
Em
You don't know the meaning of "rock your world"
G                                A
'Til you've been with a guy who thinks like a girl

D                                      G
He lies and says he's on meds, that's why he's never stiff
D                                                G
When I ask if he's not into me, he always says, "As if!"
D                                              G
But the way he makes up for his shortcomings just could not be finer
D                                               G
'Cause my new best friend is his tongue and his is my vagina
D                                      G
He reappears from under the covers, looking like he's been to war
D                                                G
He’s drenched in sweat, catches his breath, and heads down back for more
D                                 G
After that, he's never tired, he just wants to talk
D                                  G
And cuddle me until I sleep, then takes his dog for a walk

Bm                  A                 D                G
Someday he'll come out and I'll be happy for him when he does
Bm                A                D                 G
And I know I'll be sad and I’ll be thinking of what was
Bm            A            D            G
Someday this fairy tale will come to an end
Bm               A                     
'Cause his fairy tale will find a like-minded friend

G                A
But he doesn't think I know
     D                            G
But I know, I know, I've always known
G               A
If he doesn't think it shows
       D                              G
But it shows, for sure, it's always shown
Em                                   
You don't need no penetration
         G                      A
When you got a good dose of overcompensation

 G                            A
At night, when we're lying in bed
        D                                 G
He's not hard, it's okay, 'cause he gives me head
G                   A
Like my mom always says
D                                  G
"It takes more than a pound to be good in bed"
Em
You don't know the meaning of slot machine
G                                       A
'Til you've been with a king who thinks like a queen

Bm                             A
I know it's not forever, but that's okay
Bm
'Cause I'm his girlfriend, 
    G        D    
and he's my gay
