[Verse 1]
Em
I am a man, as a man, I've been told
Em
Bacon is brought to the house in this mold
Em
Born of your bellies, I yearn for the cord
Em
Years I have groveled, repentance ignored

[Bridge]
Am/E Em
And I have been blamed
Am/E Em
And I have been repented
Am/E Em D/E Em
I'm working my way toward our union mended

[Verse 2]
Em
I am a man who has grown from a son
Em
Been crucified by enraged women
Em
I am a son who was raised by such men
Em
I'm often reminded of the fools I'm among

[Bridge]
Am/E Em
And I have been shamed
Am/E Em
And I have relented
Am/E Em D/E Em
I'm working my way toward our union mended
Am/E Em
And I have been shamed
Am/E Em
And I have repented
Am/E Em D/E Em
I'm working my way toward our union mended

[Chorus]
C/E B7/E Am/E Em
We don't fare well with endless reprimands
C/E B7/E Am/E Em
We don't do well with a life served as a sentence and
C/E B7/E Am/E Em
This won't work well if you're hell bent on your offense
C/E B7/E Am/E Em
'Cause I am a man who understands your reticence

[Verse 3]
Em
I am a man who still does what he can
Em
To dispel our archaic reputation
Em
I am a man who has heard all he can
Em
'Cause I don't fare well with endless punishment

[Bridge]
Am/E Em Am/E Em
'Cause I have been blamed and I have repented
Am/E Em D/E Em
I'm working my way toward our union mended
