Jan Egeland Chords

[Intro]
Em   C   Am x2
 
[Verse 1]
Em                    C         D
   Gray hair, glasses, suitcase
Em
   Humble, clever
C
   Constantly working for peace
Am
   Uganda, Congo
Em          D           C
   And the Oslo treaty plan
       Bsus4          B
Oh my God, what a plan
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
        C
Not as famous as Gahr Støre
       G                D
Not a daddy's boy like Jens
         C
But when handgrenades are flying
         Bsus4                B
There's just one man you can trust
 
[Chorus]
             C               G
When there's war and all is hell
            D
Send in Jan Egeland
    B  C            B         Em  G C#m
The United Nations superhero man
    Em C             G
Mad dictator with a gun
            G C G D
Send in Jan Eeeegeland
         B                   Em  C Am
Oh how I wish, I was Jan Egeland
 
[Verse 2]
Em                       C          Am
   Blue eyes, firm hands, nice legs
Em
   Clean shaved body
C
   Drinking his protein shakes
Am
   Spray-tan, skin cream
Em      D                       C
   And buttocks like he was eighteen
        Bsus4              B
He's a peacekeeping machine
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
        C
And he stares, into the mirror
         G                  D
Flexing muscles in the night
          C
And says "Boy, I think you're ready
      Bsus4            B
To protect some human rights"
 
[Chorus]
             C               G
When there's war and all is hell
             D
Bring in Jan Egeland
    B  C            B         Em  G C#m
The United Nations superhero man
   Em    C              G
He plays golf with Kofi Annan
             G    C    G      D
And looks at maps with George Cloon
         B                        C#m
Oh how I wish, that I was Jan Egeland

[Pre-Chorus 3]
           C
When he's sad he goes to funerals,
     G              D
in unusually heavy rain
       C
Large amounts of water in his face
          Bsus4            B
But that doesn't hide his pain
 
          C
He breaks down just like a homo
            G                  D
And starts crying just like a girl
       C
But I guess you can cry and still be a man
        Bsus4                 B
if your day job is saving the world
 
[Chorus]
             C               G
When there's war and all is hell
             D
Send in Jan Egeland
     B C            B             Em  G C#m
He's a macho musclepumping crying God
   Em      C                    G
If there's one man you should trust
          G C G   D
It is the Jaaanny-boy
         B                   Em
Oh how I wish, I was Jan Egeland
