[Db] Folks, I've been around [Abm] [Fm] [Ab] and I've seen some things.
[Db] [Ebm] [Db] [Ab] People moving faster [Db] than the speed of sound.
[Abm] [Ab] People moving [Dbm] faster than a speeding bullet.
[Db] [Abm] [Fm] People moving [Dbm] faster than Superman [Db] [Ab] all day and all night.
And I won't say if it's wrong [Dbm] or if it's right [Bbm] because [Ab] I've heard it fast myself.
[Db] [Ab]
But I do have a few [Db] words I'd like to pass along the course of this [Ab] song.
[Dbm] It goes something [Ebm] like [Ab] this.
Better not [Db] look down [B] if you [Db] want to [Ab] keep on flying.
Take the [Db] hammer down and [B] keep it [F] full speed ahead.
[Ab] Better [Db] not look back or you might just [F] wind up [Gb] crying.
[Ab] You can [Db] keep it moving [F] if you [Ab] don't look down.

[Ab] [Db] An old girlfriend of [F] mine showed up the other [Fm] day.
[Ab] [Db] Now this girl that lived for love, [Ab] in love, over love and [Db] under love all of her life.
[Abm] [F] [Dbm] If the arrows from Cupid's bow [Ebm] that was sticking in her [Db] heart [Ab] had been sticking in her body,
[Db] she'd look like a [Ab] porcupine.
[Db] And she asked me, she [Ab] said,
Baby, [Db] do you [Eb] think I've lived my life all [Ab] wrong?
[Db] And I thought about [Ab] it.
I really didn't want to give her no bad [Dbm] advice, [Bbm] so [Ab] I thought about it a little bit more.
[Db] And I thought about it.
[Ab] Thought about it.
[Db] [Bbm] And I thought about it.
[Ab] Thought about it.
[Db] This is what [F] I said.
[E] Well, [Ab] better not look [Db] down if you want to keep [Fm] on [Ab] flying.
Take the hammer [Db] down and keep [E] it full speed [F] ahead.
[B] Better not [Db] look back or you might just wind [F] up [Ab] crying.
You can [Db] keep it moving if [Ebm] you [E] don't look down.
[Ab] [Db] I was [B] walking down [Bbm] the streets at [E] sunrise one [Ab] morning [F] in [Ebm] London, England.
[Db] [Abm] And I saw this [Ab] long black Rolls Royce [Ebm] limousine [Abm] pulling slowly down the street.
[Db]
[Ebm] [Abm] [Ab] And in this Rolls Royce [F] limousine was the Queen of [Ebm] England [Abm] looking tired, [Db] just [Abm] got back from a party.
And she leaned out [Db] and she said,
[Abm] Aren't you BB King?
[Db]
[Abm] He said, Oh BB.
[Db] Sometimes [Abm] it seems like it's so hard to try to pull things together.
[Db]
[Abm] Can you tell me what you think I ought to do?
[Db] And I thought about it.
[Ab] First I thought you can't give the [Db] Queen no bad advice.
[Ebm] [E] [Ab] So I thought about it some [Db] more.
And [B] I thought about it.
[Ab] Thought about it.
[Db] And [Abm] I thought about it.
[Ab] Thought about it.
[Db] And [Eb] I thought about it.
[Abm] Thought about it.
This is what I said.
[Ab] Better [Fm] not look [F] down if you want to keep both [Ab] sides.
Get the [Db] hammer down and [B] keep it pulled [Ab] straight ahead.
Better [Db] not look back [Abm] or you might [E] wind up crying.
You can [Db] keep it moving if you don't [Ab] look down.
Better not [Db] look down [F] if you want to keep [Ab] both sides.
Get the hammer [Db] down and [B] keep it pulled [Ab] straight ahead.
