He’s up at 6am puts the iron to his shirt

Your bus leaves in an hour Yes Man don’t be late for work
G Bb Eb Bb
The boss is out of town, paper stacked a mile high

A sticky note says “Yes Man you’ll be working overtime”
F Bb Bb7
You’ll be working all your life away
[Chorus]
C7 G7
The Yes Man’s willing to carry the load
F7 C7 (G, A, B)
Knows not how to say no to anyone
C7 G7 F7
The Yes Man he’s just a bird in the flock, doesn’t know what he wants
A Abaug C/G A6/Gb
Say jump he’ll say how high
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 C
The Yes Man just nods his head and smiles
(G Bb Eb Bb Eb Bb F)
[Verse 2]
His wife she rules the roost, the theater is obscene
A spectacle for sport, a D list celebrity
Their children miss behave, he stares through the tv set
Wondering how many yesses yes him in this mess
If he’d only just yessed less somehow
[Chorus]
The Yes Man’s willing to carry the load
Knows not how to say know to anyone
Yes Man he’s just a bird in the flock, doesn’t know what he wants
Say jump he’ll say how high
The Yes Man he nods his head and smiles
[Bridge]
D7
Oh Yes man if you’re in there now’s the time you must act
A7
Yes Man you can do it leave and never look back
C7
Yes Man we believe in you, you must follow through
E7 F7 G7
Yes Man You can be a No Man too
[Chorus]
The Yes Man’s willing to carry the load
Knows not how to say know to anyone
Yes Man he’s just a bird in the flock, doesn’t know what he wants
Say jump he’ll say how high
Fmaj7 Fmaj
The Yes Man he nods his head
Fmaj7 Fmaj
That Yes Man he nods his head
Fmaj7 Fmaj C
That Yes Man he nods his head and smiles.
