I was surprised, i was happy for a day in 1975[/tab]
[tab]
i was puzzled by a dream, it stayed with me all day in 1995[/tab]
[tab]
my brother had confessed that he was gay[/tab]
[tab]
it took the heat off me for a while[/tab]
[tab]
he stood up with a sailor friend[/tab]
[tab]
and made it known upon my sisters wedding day[/tab]
Etc.
Chorus ("they dont seem to mind"...go to end of G#m, then chorus):
