The Professor (Live at Cornucopia Café, Dublin)
capo 3
Well I don't Cknow if I'm wrong
            B/Am  
Cause she's only just gone
   AmHere's to another reGlationship
(hammers on 2nd fret of D string on the word "bombed")
                            F(Em)
Bombed by excellent breed of gamete disease
I'm Fsure when I'm older I'll Gknow what that means
(same as first time)
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Here's to the man with his face in the mud
And an overcast play just taken away
From the lover's in love at the centre of stage yeah
FLoving is fine if you have plenty of time
For Gwalking on stilts at the edge of your mind
FLoving is good if your dick's made of wood
And the Gdick left inside only half understood her
Fmaj7What makes her come and what makes her stay?
  G6What make the animal run, run away yeah
Fmaj7What makes him stall, what makes him stand
And G6what shakes the elephant now
    (mute)
And what makes a man?
         Fmaj7              G6  Am6/9 (?)
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Am6/9    G6   Fmaj7       G6  C  
No I don't know you any more
CNoCmaj7, no, Fmaj7no, no...
Cooh yeah... Fmaj7hey hey...
same as first time, except sub  E7for B/Am
I don't know if I'm wrong
'Cause shes only just gone
Why the *** is this day taking so long
I was a lover of time and once she was mine
I was a lover indeed, I was covered in weed
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Well closer to god is the one who's in love
And I walk away cause I can
Too many options may kill a man
Loving is fine if it's not in your mind
But I've ***ed it up now, too many times
Loving is good if it's not understood
Yeah, but I'm the professor
And feel that I should know
What makes her come and what makes her stay?
What make the animal run, run away and
What makes him tick apart from him prick
And the lonelier side of the jealousy stick
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
No I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
No I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Hell I don't know you any more
No, no, no no...
Well I don't know if I'm wrong
'Cause she's only just gone
Here's to another relationship
Bombed by my excellent breed of gamete disease
I finished it off with some French wine and cheese
La fille danse
Quand elle joue avec moi
Et je pense que je l'aime des fois
Le silence, n'ose pas dis-donc
Quand on est ensemble
Mettre les mots
