When We're Human(Keyboard chords)

	        Intro: E  B 
  
Verse 1:
                  E 
If I were a human being  

I'd head straight for New Orleans  
        A 
And I'd blow this horn so hot and strong  

Like no one they've ever seen 

You've heard of Louis Armstrong?  
              E 
Mister Sidney Bechet?  
                     A 
All those boys gonna step aside  

When they hear this old ex-gator play  

Listen! 
  
( C#  G# ) 
  
 
 
E 
When I'm human  

As I hope to be  
  
I'm gonna blow this horn  
         C# 
'Til the cows come home  
F# 
And everyone's gonna bow down to me 

   
 
Verse 2:
 
F# 
When I'm myself again  
  
I want just the life I had  
E 
A great big party every night  
C#m 
That doesn't sound too bad  
                     B 
A redhead on my left arm 
  
A brunette on my right  
  E 
A blonde or two to hold the candles  

Now that seems just about right  

Eh, Louis? 
   
 
Pre-Chorus
 
E 
Life is short  

When you're done, you're done  
A                   C 
We're on this earth to have some fun  
B 
And that's the way things are  
  
 
 
E        B 
When I'm human 
   
And I'm gonna be  
                     C#m 
I'm gonna tear it up like I did before  
G#m                  B 
And that's the royal guarantee  

  
  
Verse 3:
A 
Your modesty becomes you 
         C# 
And your sense of responsibility  
                          F# 
I've worked hard for everything I've got  
  
And that's the way it's supposed to be  
     C# 
When I'm a human being  

At least I'll act like one  

If you do your best each and every day  

Good things are sure to come your way  
  
  

C# 
What you give is what you get  
A#m                A 
My daddy said that and I'll never forget  
C# 
And I commend it to you 
C# 
When we're human 
  
And we're gonna be 

F#                     F 
I'm gonna blow my horn  
F#                      C# 
I'm gonna live the high life  
F#                                       A# 
I'm gonna do my best to take my place in the sun 
C#  F#  G#    Fm 
When we're human
