Verse 1:
|F                        | Fsus2         G           |
I am not jesus, though I   have the same initials
|F                        | Fsus2         G           |
I am the man who stays      home and does the dishes
|Bb*                      | G             G/D         |
And how was         your    day?
|Bb*                      | F             G           |
Is that woman       still trying to do your head in?

Verse 2:
|F                        | Fsus2         G           |
A man told me to beware     of           33
|F                        | Fsus2         G           |
He said     it was not an   easy time for me
|Bb*                      | G             G/D         |
            But I'll get   through
|Bb*                      | F             G           |
Even though I've got  no    miracles to   show you

Chorus:
|C          | F             | Am    G      | Em        F    |
I'd like to  make this water wiiii-nnnne but it's impossible
|C          | F             | Am    G      | Em        F    |
I've got to  get these dishes dryyyy-yyyy

Verse 3:
|F                        | Fsus2         G           |
I'll read a story,        if it helps you sleep at night 
|F                        | Fsus2         G           |
I've got some matches       if you ever need a light 
|Bb*                      | G             G/D         |
        Oh I am just a      man 
|Bb*                      | F             G           |
     and I'm doing what I   can  to       help  you

Chorus:
|C          | F             | Am    G      | Em        F    |
I'd like to  make this water wiiii-nnnne but it's impossible
|C          | F             | Am    G      | Em        F    |
I've got to  get these dishes dryyyy-yyyy

Bridge:
|F          | C             | F               | C              |
  and I     I'm not worried  that I will never touch the stars
|F          | C             | F               | C              |
cause stars belong up in heaven, and the earth is where we are

|C          | F             | Am    G      | Em        F    |
