There was a man sitting on a bench
AA Piano Chord

Out of the crowd as his head lowly bowed

He just moaned and he made no sense
BmBm Piano Chord 

He'd just go

Verse 2:

I just couldn't help myself
Yes, I was born with a curious mind
I asked this man just what did he mean
When he moaned if he'd be so kind
And he'd just go

Verse 3:

Now that I've grown up
And the woman I love she has gone
Now that I'm a man, I think I understand
Sometimes everyone must sing this song
Listen to me sing

[repeat chorus; fade 4th time]

2: Everybody now
4: One more time, now
