Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

| | X4

Like a folk-singer's song I'm moving on

and I'm not the kinda man that acts very strong

when the girls are looking on,

when the girls (when the girls are looking on)

If you tied my hands and put chains on my feet

I can picture myself walking down any street

telling people that I meet

"Psst! looks like rain to me (looks like rain to me)

Bridge

every single day at eleven,I'm home in bed in sleep heaven,

Alone 'Cos my girl leaves at seven,ain't got time for my bed-in,

she says "Stop pretending,you're not John Lennon!"

Chorus

Will I ever get over this, having tasted your lips with a kiss?

You can cross me off your list,take these cuffs

from off my wrists,and drop your fists

Intro X1

As soon as I'm well I'm gonna leave my house

become more of a man and less like a mouse

drive my car down south to the Mississippi's mouth

to the Gulf Of Mexico's mouth I'll be soused

Every girl I made in the shade of esplanade

I saved In a song that I play when I'm afraid

of a full scale air raid from the choices that I made

BRIDGE,CHORUS

da da da da de da de da ....

no matter how much you take of each song that i make

Im not fragile, I don't break and I'm down at the lake

and I hope someday you'll have it made

with all that money that you make

It was fun while it lasted but then it was blasted

right out of the water and into Fantastic

now he feels shafted and she's already past it

(she's like elastic and he's just so spastic)

BRIDGE X1,CHORUS X3
