Verse 1:
Bm   A                      Bm
    Late September in the city
     A                         Bm
The sky is grey, the air is sticky
A                     Bm
I keep falling in and out of sleep
A    Bm
A                           Bm
Letting the sun scorch the grass
    A                           Bm
The flies are knocking on the glass
      A                     Bm                  A
But they’re the only other friends I have, you see

Pre-chorus:
  Gb
I need him so much that it hurts
   G
I wish he didn’t have to go to work
A                                    Gb
I just lie and watch the ceiling fan turn

Chorus:
        Bm                  Gb
He’s my man, we’re hand in hand
             A
To hell and back
          G              Em        Bm
And I’ll love him like nobody else can
        Gb              A
He’s my man, I’ve been damned
      G           Em    Gb
No, nobody has to understand
          Bm
Me and my man

Verse 2:
A                          Bm
I stay home and make his dinner
             A                          Bm
Even though somehow he keeps getting thinner
                      A
I wait, watching the washing machine
     Bm                   A
Spin round and round again

Pre-chorus:
   Gb
I need him so much that it hurts
   G
I wish he didn’t have to go to work
    A                                  Gb
He keeps complaining that his visions blurred

Chorus:
            Bm                  Gb
But he’s my man, we’re hand in hand
             A
To hell and back
          G              Em        Bm
And I’ll love him like nobody else can
        Gb              A
He’s my man, I’ve been damned
      G           Em    Gb    (nc)
No, nobody has to understand
          Bm
Me and my man

Bridge:
Gb               Bm
He keeps having feverish dreams
Gb                G
That he can never ever leave
    Gb                      Bm
He wakes, head aches, funny taste to his tea
               Gb
I want him to stay here forever
     Gb
He’s happiest with me

Cause he…

Chorus:
         Bm   Gb  A
He’s my man
          G              Em        Bm
And I’ll love him like nobody else can
        Gb                    A
He’s my man, he’s gone quite mad
      G           Em    Gb    (nc)
No, nobody has to understand

Me and my man
