Father John Misty - Only son of the ladiesman

^EWhen I heard the ladiesman was ^Adead ^E I saw the rolling stone stopped moving Saw my ancient hero on the Sunset Strip He left behind a legacy of ruin Now painted ladies want to hold my gun Wonder if the whole time if I'd been acting When I sang "Moon River" in that silent film Had I really made a sound when they called action

^AI swear that man was wom^C#mankind's first^E husb^C#mand They all died in a line to save him

^AI'm a steady hand, I'm a ^C#mDodger's fan I'm a leaning brand of a one night stand

^AI'm a ladies^Eman ^C#mOh s^Aome ladies^Eman Oh some ladiesman

^EConceus used a body at the ^Afune^Eral By virtue of the flailing of his conquests They tied down his casket with the garter belt Each troubled heart was beating in a sequin dress Someone must console these lonesome daughters No written word are valid will appease them Cowboy and the cop shot down the ladiesman The humid nights in LA are now silence I swear that man was womankind's first husband

^C#mOnly son of the ^Aladie^Esman Only son of the ladiesman Only son of the ladiesman
