Bobby Bare – Finger On The Button (Guitar)

       A                              E
I have appointed me the captain of my destiny

                                      A
And proclaimed myself the pilot of my soul

       D                             A
But my mind remains uneasy cause the rest of me

  E                             A
Depends on someone I don't even know

        D                                                        A
May the man who has his finger on the button have a lovely day today

     E                                                            A
Hope nothing hangs him up or ticks him off or bums him out in any way

     D                                                                  A
Lord help him keep his cool cause he could pull the final curtain on my play

        E                             D             E            A
May the man who has his finger on the button have a lovely day today

        A                                  E
I can recall when only God could start the world anew

                                     A
He who left his babies wasted on the shore

             D                                  A
But now that man could have the last word if he wanted to

E                            A
God ain't such a bad dude anymore

        D                                                          A
May the man who has his finger on the button have a lovely night tonight

          E                                                               A
Hope he's got himself a honey who knows what to do and I hope she does it right

          D                                                       A
And in my heart I know that he won't go bananas -- then again, he might

        E                             D             E              A
May the man who has his finger on the button have a lovely night tonight

        D                                                        A
May the man who has his finger on the button have a lovely day today

Hope nothing hangs him up or ticks him off or bums him out in any way

     D                                                                  A
Lord help him keep his cool cause he could pull the final curtain on my play

        E                             D             E            A
May the man who has his finger on the button have a lovely day today

         D                                            A
