Hey Little Twelve Toes(Chords)

	        
Intro: Dm7 D/E7,D/Cm9,Dm7 
 

D/E7    D/Cm7                  Dm7 
Now if man had been born with 6 fingers on each hand,  
D/E7 
He'd also have  
D/Cm9             Dm7                D/E7 
12 toes or so the theory goes. Well, with twelve  
        D/Cm9 
Digits, I mean  
         Dm7                      
Fingers, he probably would have invented two more  

Digits when he  
        D/E7               D/Cm9        Dm7 
Invented his number system. Then, if he saved the zero  

For the end,  
D/E7               D/Cm7              Dm7  
He could count and multiply by twelve just as easily as  
D/E7 
You and I do  

By ten.  
D/E7                     D/Cm9 
Now if man had been born with 6 fingers on each hand,  
Dm7 
He'd probably  
        D/E7                  D/Cm9 
Count: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,  
Dm7 
Nine, dek, el,  
           D/E7           D/Cm9 
Doh. 'Dek' and 'el' being two entirely new signs  
Dm7 
Meaning ten and  
        D/E7           D/Cm9            Dm7 
Eleven. Single digits! And his twelve, 'doh', would be  

Written 1-0.  
D/E7              D/Cm9                  Dm7    C7sus4 
Get it? That'd be swell, for multiplying by 12.  

verse 1 
Gm9        Gm6                       FM7 
Hey little twelvetoes, I hope you're well.  
Fm9     Fm6                   EbM7 
Must be some far-flung planet where you dwell.  
Em7b5                A7           Dm7 
If we were together, you could be my cousin,  
                       Bbmaj7 
Down here we call it a dozen.  
A7 
Hey little twelvetoes, please come back home.  

Interlude Same as Intro 

Now if man had been born with 6 fingers on each hand,  
His children  
Would have 'em too. And when they played hide-and-go-  
Seek they'd  
Count by sixes fast. And when they studied piano,  
They'd do their  
Six-finger exercises. And when they went to school,  
They'd learn the  
Golden rule, and how to multiply by twelve easy: just  
Put down a  
Zero. But me, I have to learn it the hard way.  
Lemme see now:  

Bridge 
        
F7                                      Bb7             
One times 12 is twelve, two times 12 is 24.  
                                       C7 
Three times 12 is 36, four times 12 is 48, five times  
      F7 
12 is 60.  

Six times 12 is 72, seven times 12 is 84.  
Bb7                                         C7 
Eight times 12 is 96, nine times 12 is 108, ten times  
12 is 120.  
F7                                                 D7 
Eleven times 12 is 132, and 12 times 12 is 144. WOW!  

verse 2 

Gm9                   Gm6            FM7 
Hey little twelvetoes, I hope you're thriving.  
Fm9            Fm6                     Ebmaj7 
Some of us ten-toed folks are still surviving.  
Em7b5                  A7       Dm7 
If you help me with my twelves, I'll help you with your  

 
                    Bbmaj7 
And we could all be friends.  
A7                        Dm7 
Little twelvetoes, please come back home.
