There's a tall thin man standing [C] in the shadows
[G] When he calls your name, his voice is [C] strong and clear
[G] It's a dark and smoky place, [C] so you can't quite see his face
[G] He pulls you close and whispers [C] in your ear
[G] And he tells you he was born [C] into some money
[G] But it didn't mean he had to [C] sit around
[G] And he knows a thing or two [C] about the things that you should do
[G] If you don't want to take life [C] lying down

There's a tall thin man standing [C] in the shadows _
[G] When he calls your name, his voice is [C] strong and clear
[G] It's a dark and smoky place, [C] so you can't quite see his face
[G] He pulls you close and whispers [C] in your ear _
[G] And he tells you he was born [C] into some money _
[G] But it didn't mean he had to [C] sit around _
[G] And he knows a thing or two [C] about the things that you should do
[G] If you don't want to take life [C] lying down _
[G] First of all, hang out a [Am] lot with [C] Hemingway _
[F] Spend some [G] time fighting [Am] bulls in Spain
You [G] should go three [D] rounds with Archie [Am] Moore and Sugar [C] Ray
[F] So damn [G] scary you won't [C] mind the pain _
[G] Be your ringside at the rumble [C] in the jungle
[G] Make friends with Honduras and [C] Jackie O
And [G] when they shoot poor Bobby down, you [C] wrestle Sir Hand to the ground
[G] Love your friends and miss them [C] when they go
You [G] should write a book or two and [Am] start a [C] magazine _
[F] Even [D] if it never [Am] makes a dime _
[G] You should swing out by [D] your feet above [Am] the circus [C] ring
[F] At the very [G] least throw parties [D] all the time _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ Time and time [Ab] will never get [C] there
Not so far [D] from here to there
We [Dm] must go _ _
[F] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ [G] So enjoy yourself, do the things that matter
Cause there isn't time and space to do [C] it all
_ _ [G] Love the things you try, [C] drink a cocktail where I tie
[G] Show a little grace if [C] you should fall
[G] Don't live [D] another day unless [Am] you make [C] it count
[F] There's someone [G] else that you're supposed [Am] to be
_ _ [G] Something deep [D] inside of [Am] you that still [C] wants out
[F] Bring shame on [G] you if you don't [D] set it free
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [D] _ _ [Am] _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ [C] _ _ _
