I wish that I could know them one by one

All the handsome gentlemen with loving on their minds

Strolling in to take the ladies home

To everyone who cannot hold a pen

To all you heavy rounders with a headache for your pains

Who dread the thought of going 'round the bend

   F                C                  G 
To all the ones who learn to live with being second-guessed 
      F                              G 
Whose job it is to give more then to get

To all the sleeping giants who must wake 
   F                            G 
To every man who answers to the letter of the law 
    F                             G 
And all the rest imprisoned by mistake

To all of you with heartache that remains 
F                              G 
Maybe sometime later you might swim back into shore 
   F                                 G 
If someone could relieve you of your chains 



C                                 F 
Bless you all and keep you on the land or on the sea

Heaven can be yours, just for now
