Here we are, dear old friends
     *      
You and i, drunk again
                                 
laughs have been had and tears have been shed
        *                  
maybe the whisky has gone to my head

Chorus:
             
but if i were gay
                  
i would give you my heart
             
and if i were gay
                  
you'd be my work of art
             
and if i were gay
                 
we would swim in romance
 
but im not gay
                
so get your hand out of my pants

Intro: 2x- , , , *

Verse:
                   
Its not that i dont care, i do
          *            
i just dont see myself in you
                 
another time, another scene
             *
i'd be right behind you
                   
if you know what i mean

Chorus:
             
cuz if i were gay
                  
i would give you my soul
             
and if i were gay
                  
i would give you my whole being
             
and if i were gay
                     
we would tear down the walls

But I'm Not gay
                
so wont you stop cupping my...hand

Intro: 2x- , , , *

Ending:
                        *
we've never hugged,we've never kissed
                            *
i've never been intimate with your fist
                       *
But you have opened brand new doors
        
get over here and
    *   ,,,*
drop your Drawers

============================================================================

I got this from studying the comedy central presents.  This is pretty much exactly the 
he plays it... During the part in the chorus, "But I'm not gay..." Play the A and the G 
eigth notes. Happy Hunting.
