Dont be a silly man

Em
I was sitting on my expectation
Am
Waiting for some validation
Em Am
I was far from my home, so far from home
Em
Waiting in a crowded room
Am Em
Talking with some people whom I’d met before
Am Em
They were traveling musicians just like me
Am Em
And I was basking in the comfort of their company
Am C B
Then a man came and a knock upon the door
C D
And a tower of my profession walked into the room
C D Em
The people I was talking to they couldn’t leave too soon
C Bbm
And thought I should know better
Bm7 Am
I was star struck and babbled like a loon
Em D G
I said it’s awfully nice to meet you
Em D G
It’s an honor and a pleasure
Em D G
And you’re a national treasure
Em D G C Am
And I hope that we can make some future plan heyyyy
Asus2
And he turned to me and said
Em Am
Don’t be a silly man
D Em
Don’t be a silly man
Em Am
He said I don’t need your worship or your praise
D Em
It’s a real conversation that I crave
Em Am D Em
It’s a real oohhhhhh

We talked about our virtues and our crimes
C D Em
We talked about the nature of these tenuous times
C Bbm Bm7
And how our constant search for immortality

Will always be denied

I said it’s awfully nice to meet you
Em D G
It’s an honor and a pleasure
