They say the grass on the other side of the fence is greener than the greenest green in the whole darn box
I say it doesn’t matter whatcha have, as long as you love all you got
I’ve got a puppy that adores me
I’ve got a dead end job
I’ve want something that I’ll never have again
Now do you think I’m odd
Yeah Star Wars 1-3 might not have been that great, but it’s still better than doin taxes on a Friday Night
Yeah yer girl has hair all over her face, but aren’t you glad that there’s no hair on her elbows?

I can pay my bills
I’ve got lot’s of things that can never be replaced

My Girl is a Magic Champion (And the Prettiest Girl in the Shoppe)
D,G,A
My Girl, My Girl, she’s a magic champion
She’s beat’em all from here to there
No one will be sad
So don’t go on feelin bad
When you get beat by the prettiest girl in the shop
When it comes to flippin cards
There’s few I’ve seen as good
As the girl I’m married to today
She’ll counter all your spells
Beat you down with big bad monsters
She’ll steal your heart as she knocks you in the head
Chorus
Oh, I see you got the shakes
As you shuffle ‘round your hand
Wondering what you possibly can do
There’s nothing you can say
She won’t go out with you on a date
Yes, I’m the lucky nerd that she calls mine
Chorus

“You are Loved”
v- Em Am C G c- C G
Life hasn’t treated you kind
But we all have to find
A reason to carry on
I’ll try and do my part
Make the world better with some art
And remind you that you are loved
You are Loved*8
All people do is curse your name
You try your best to rise above their game
But the days seem to drag on
Take the short drive back home
I’ll be there waiting you’re not alone
And I’ll remind you that you are loved
Chorus
Lay your weary head down at night
Dread what comes with the morning light
Sleep seems to come so hard
Close your eyes and see my face
Memories of me that can’t be replaced
And reminds you that you are loved
Chorus
Repreat 1st verse as outro

“Not All Nerds are Virgins”
Capo 3 C G A Em
I know it’s hard to believe
But it’s true, oh its true
I’ve got a lil story to tell you
And it’s true
Not all Nerds are Virgins
We got nerdy girls too
Not all nerds are virgins
Some chicks think we’re cool
It’s cool to buy star wars toys
And finish your girl’s set
That missing comic you’ve been looking for
She’s got it I bet
Not all Nerds are Virgins
We got nerdy girls too
Not all nerds are virgins
Some chicks think we’re cool
If your war hammer collection don’t scare her off
She’s the one for you
Not all Nerds are Virgins
Some girls think we’re cool
You pick up her badge for the con
So she don’t have to wait in line
And she got that princess leia outfit
Your both ready for a good time
Not all Nerds are Virgins
We got nerdy girls too
Not all nerds are virgins
Some chicks think we’re cool
If your girl suggest you cosplay Jessie and James
Yeah, she’s the one for you
Not all nerds are virigins
Some girls think we’re cool
Not all Nerds are Virgins
We got nerdy girls too
Not all nerds are virgins
Some chicks think we’re cool
If your girl sends you a link to this song
She’s the one for you
Not all Nerds are Virgins
Some girls think we’re cool

“I wear my emotions on my sleeve and bare my soul on my shirt”
G C D
I wear my emotions on my sleeve
I bare my soul on my shirt
On when my girlfriend broke up with me
That really hurt
And I let you know my pain by whats on my shirt
You know I like to play a little dungeons and dragons
And when I do my shirt give me plus two
I like Big Bang Theory a lot I really mean that
You all know cause my shirt says, “Bazinga”
Chorus
Bridge Riff: Em A C D
I see you lookin at my shirt and tryin to read it
An inside joke or maybe a snaky quip
Often my shirt says I am TheLoneGunman
Now go do what it says and buy my Cds
Chorus

“This guitar is not a Guitar It's a Gun”
G C
Oh you all look like you’d like to hear a song
And I’ll play one for you now it isn’t long
You know I like to keep’em short and I like to keep’em funny
But what I really really like is all your money
Yeah this guitar is not a guitar it’s a gun, yeah it’s a gun
And this show is not really a show
It’s a stick up!
Oh do not move if you know what’s good for you
Don’t be a hero; don’t give me no attitude
Hold out your cash I’ll take it, if you don’t yer gonna get wasted
Don’t mess with me cause I’m desperate and insane
Chorus
my mp3 is not really an mp3 it’s a scam yeah it’s a scam
And my smile is not really a smile
It’s a wicked grin!
Chorus

She’s asks me if I know my name
She asks me again
She asks where I’m going
She asks me where I’ve been
I’ve been to heaven
A glorious place
Where the people live in peace
A world of beauty
With multiple moons
And the occupants all stay young
I’ve been to heaven
A light is shining in my eyes
And shadows seems to move
I hear a wailing in the distance
I seem to float above the room
Time and space, become one
The wormhole opens and I’m gone
I’m going to heaven
A glorious place
Where the people live in peace
A world of beauty
With multiple moons
And the occupants all stay young
I’m going to heaven

“Training Kids for War”
Chords: Capo 3 G C D
I maybe young but I see what they’re trying to do
It’s rare a kid like me is born let alone in battle school
We’re training all day and all night
I don’t get letters from mom and dad anymore
Training Kids for War
Let the games begin battle for the best in class
Im the youngest but my squad can adapt so fast
We’re training all day and all night
There’s not a safe haven or a friend to be found
The enemy’s gate is down
Training kids for War
This makes public school seem such a bore
We all know what we’re here for
Training kids for War
The buggers got us good but us humans won’t be tame
My team is all assembled we practice through this game
We’re training all day and all night
We don’t get letters from mom and dad anymore
Training kids for War
Chorus

What to Remember during the Zombie Apocalypse
Capo 5 E A High E (barre) C G D
The Fortune tellers predicted
The upcoming apocalypse
Zombies all around
Eating the brains of everyone in town
But before hat dreadful day
I feel you should know
Just how to kill a zombie
So this is how it goes
You must remove the head
Or destroy the brain
Take a bat or hockey stick
And bash it in the head
Or better yet a sword
Attack the neck and make it dead
Well I guess technically
It’s already dead
So run it over with your tank
And make it dead again
Chorus
Chorus

“Do what Filkers Do”
Chords F D E C
Travel ‘round the world
Faster than the speed of light
Singing songs that fill me
With so much delight
I love to play guitar
Singing songs about stuff
Put the record on
I know you can’t get enough
Sittin in a circle
Singing till the morning light
We may not do it well
But we all do it right
Surrounded by my friends
Who all feel the same
Science fiction tv shows
Comic books video games
Sing a Song Sing a Song
Sing it all day and night long
Sing a Song Sing a Song
Oh won’t you sing along
Sing a Song Sing a Song
Sing me something new
Sing a Song Sing a Song
Do what filkers do
Workin on computers
Is one way to pay the bills
But that kind of life
Won’t get you any thrills
You know that I’m a dreamer
I really wanna fly
Shoot me off in a rocket
I’ll wave the world goodbye
Traveling through space
Living among the stars
Going where no man has gone before
don’t seem so hard
Chorus

My Famous Last Song
D chord with bass run down to G and back up to D with the lick.
I’m out of things to say
So now I must go away
I hope to come back another day
What’s a filker without his songs? (Who am I without my songs?)
But a fan boy living with his (my) mom
Collecting items from the movie tron
Playing games and reading books
Wishing we (I) could fight captin hook
But here time steals our (stole my) youth
This is the last song I’ll sing tonight
I hope its one you’ll all like
My Cds are priced just right
