[Intro]
C5 , A5 , G5 , F5 , G5 (x2)

[Verse 1]
         C5
There's wisdom
   E5
In every little thing you say
    D5
And I'm wrong
    F5
And getting wronger every day
     C5
I'll be true
     E5
You know I'll never break your heart
  D5
I hear you
G5
  Could you repeat the last part?

[Chorus] 
C5                             A5
Darling, you're talking to a man now.
                     G5
You're talking to a man now, child.
        F5             G5
Speak slowly, speak slowly

[Verse 2]
Sweetheart,
What do you think I do all day?
I make Art
When inspiration blows my way.
Oh, the shouting?
I'm getting kind of used to that
But this doubting my intentions?
Well honey, that just makes me sad.

[Chorus] (x2)
Darling, you're talking to a manchild
Darling, you're talking to a manchild now
Speak slowly, speak slowly

[Bridge]
C5             A5
 You ask for conversation
C5             A5
 You ask for understanding
C5             A5             D5   E5
 But then you say you want a man, yeah
C5          A5
 Look how hard I'm trying:
C5             A5
 I'll let you watch me crying.
C5              A5             G5    F5
 I'm just like you, but I'm a man.

[Instrumental]
C5 , A5 , G5 , F5 , G5 (x2)

[Verse 3]
I know you
You think I'm just a lazy jerk
But I miss you
Babe when you're away at work.
And Genius
Can strike a man at any time
So I'm waiting
Let's cut it with the heavy sighs.

[Chorus] (x2)
Darling, you're talking to a manchild
Darling, you're talking to a manchild now
Speak slowly, speak slowly

[End on C]
