Intro:Dm7,D/E7,D/Cm9,Dm7
Note/ means inversion.

D/E7    D/Cm7                  Dm7
Now if man had been born with 6 fingers on each hand, 
D/E7
He'd also have 
D/Cm9             Dm7                D/E7
12 toes or so the theory goes. Well, with twelve 
        D/Cm9
Digits, I mean 
         Dm7                     
Fingers, he probably would have invented two more

Digits when he 
        D/E7               D/Cm9        Dm7
Invented his number system. Then, if he saved the zero

For the end, 
D/E7               D/Cm7              Dm7 
He could count and multiply by twelve just as easily as 
D/E7
You and I do

By ten. 
D/E7                     D/Cm9
Now if man had been born with 6 fingers on each hand, 
Dm7
He'd probably 
        D/E7                  D/Cm9
Count: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, 
Dm7
Nine, dek, el, 
           D/E7           D/Cm9
Doh. "Dek" and "el" being two entirely new signs 
Dm7
Meaning ten and 
        D/E7           D/Cm9            Dm7
Eleven. Single digits! And his twelve, "doh", would be

Written 1-0. 
D/E7              D/Cm9                  Dm7    C7sus4Get (x3331x@1)it? That'd be swell, for multiplying by 12.

Verse 1
Gm9 (3132xx@1)      Gm6 (3x5353@1)                     FM7
Hey little twelvetoes, I hope you're well. 
Fm9 (131113@1)   Fm6 (1x3131@1)                 EbM7
Must be some far-flung planet where you dwell. 
Em7b5                A7 (x02020@1)         Dm7
If we were together, you could be my cousin, 
                       BbMaj7
Down here we call it a dozen. 
A7Hey (x02020@1)little twelvetoes, please come back home.

Interlude Same as Intro
Now if man had been born with 6 fingers on each hand, 
His children 
Would have 'em too. And when they played hide-and-go- 
Seek they'd 
Count by sixes fast. And when they studied piano, 
They'd do their 
Six-finger exercises. And when they went to school, 
They'd learn the 
Golden rule, and how to multiply by twelve easy: just 
Put down a 
Zero. But me, I have to learn it the hard way. 
Lemme see now:

Bridge        
F7 (131241@1)                                    Bb7 (x13131@1)          
One times 12 is twelve, two times 12 is 24. 
                                       C7Three (x32310@1)times 12 is 36, four times 12 is 48, five times 
      F712 (131241@1)is 60.

Six times 12 is 72, seven times 12 is 84. 
Bb7 (x13131@1)                                       C7Eight (x32310@1)times 12 is 96, nine times 12 is 108, ten times 
12 is 120. 
F7 (131241@1)                                               D7Eleven (xx0212@1)times 12 is 132, and 12 times 12 is 144. WOW!

Verse 2
Gm9 (3132xx@1)                 Gm6 (3x5353@1)          FM7
Hey little twelvetoes, I hope you're thriving. 
Fm9 (131113@1)          Fm6 (1x3131@1)                   EbMaj7
Some of us ten-toed folks are still surviving. 
Em7b5                  A7 (x02020@1)     Dm7
If you help me with my twelves, I'll help you with your

Tens. 
                    BbMaj7
And we could all be friends. 
A7 (x02020@1)                      Dm7
