Here are the chords to the song "Manchild" by Steven Page (formerly of Barenaked 
Ladies). This song is not yet on an album, but it was released as a single earlier 
this year. I think these chords are pretty accurate, aside from the  bridge. I 
couldn't quite figure those out. Still, hope you enjoy!

-Standard Tuning-

-No Capo-

-The chords are played as follows:-
C:  032010

[Intro]
C, Am, G, F, G (x2)

[Verse 1]
         C
There's wisdom
   Em
In every little thing you say
    Dm
And I'm wrong
    F
And getting wronger every day
     C
I'll be true
     Em
You know I'll never break your heart
  Dm
I hear you
G
  Could you repeat the last part?

[Chorus] 
C                             Am
Darling, you're talking to a man now.
                     G
You're talking to a man now, child.
        F             G
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]
C             Am
 You ask for conversation
C             Am
 You ask for understanding
C             Am             Dm   Em
 But then you say you want a man, yeah
C          Am
 Look how hard I'm trying:
C             Am
 I'll let you watch me crying.
C              Am             G    F
 I'm just like you, but I'm a man.

[Instrumental]
C, Am, G, F, G (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]
