D D/C# D/Bm Dmaj
Here we are, dear old friend.
Bm Bm/A G A
You and I, drunk again.
D D/C# D/Bm Dmaj
Laughs have been had; tears have been shed.
Bm Bm/A G A
Maybe the whiskey’s gone to my head.
D A Bm G
But if I were gay, I would give you my heart.
D A Bm G
And if I were gay, you’d be my work of art.
D A Bm G
And if I were gay, we would swim in romance.
A G A D Dsus2 D Em9
But I’m not gay, so get your hand out of my pants.
D-Dsus2-D-Em9

D D/C# D/Bm Dmaj
It’s not that I don’t care, I do.
Bm Bm/A G A
I just don’t see myself in you.
D D/C# D/Bm Dmaj
Another time, another scene.
Bm Bm/A G A
I’d be right behind you, if you know what I mean.
D A Bm G
‘Cause if I were gay, I would give you my soul.
D A Bm G
And if I were gay, I would give you my whole… being.
D A Bm G
And if I were gay, we would tear down the walls.
A G A D Dsus2 D Em9
But I’m not gay, so won’t you stop cupping my… hand.
D-Dsus2-D-Em9-D-Dsus2-D-Em9-D-Dsus2-D-Em9
D Dsus2 D Em9
We’ve never hugged; we’ve never kissed.
D Dsus2 D Em9
I’ve never been intimate with your fist.
D Dsus2 D Em9
But you have opened brand new doors.
D Dsus2 D Em9
Get over here and drop your drawers.
