[N] [Em]
I loved the Lone Ranger, [Bm] and I loved that Dennis Law.
[A] Him and George Best, [Em] and sure knew how to kick a bomb.
I wanted to be a cowboy, [Bm] like the Crackin' Whip.
[D] Stand up in that [Am] lonely street, [E] with six guns on my hip.
Along [Em] the mighty Beatles came, [Bm] and everyone went,
Ah!
[A] They could play and sing and everything.
[Em] And of course that John could draw.
Well that was it for me.
[Bm] I never once looked back.
[A] Tricks to land and waves to catch.

[Em]
Are you looking at me?
Who are [D]
you looking [Am] at me?
[Em]
Are you looking at me, pal?
Well, when we headed south, [Bm] where the surf can crash and end.
[A] From black and white to [Am] colour, [E] from innocence to sin.
It was summer in December, [Bm] blowing heat waves in my mind.
Evil talk and [Am] funny, [Em] some cruel and some were kind.
From the crackle of the cane, [Bm] to the frown of a big black snake.
[Am] From the breakers at Bondi, [Em] down to Walliga Lake.
From the sound of a million fly screen [B] doors closing in the past.
Like [Am] that chimney the fires couldn't burn, [E] I was built to last.

[Em] Are you looking at me?
Who [D] are you looking [Am] at me?
[Em] Are you looking at me, pal?
When I flew across the ocean, [B]
I was number one.
[Am] People gave me everything, [Em] and I didn't need a gun.
Walking down that avenue, I [B] never felt so alive.
[A] People calling out my name, [Em] and I'd only just arrived.
There was a tightrope walking [Bm] bagpiper in the middle of Central Park.
[Am] Steam was rising from the ground.
[Em] I wore my cape out after dark.
I had myself a moment, [Bm]
like day out in the sun.
[Am] It's an unfinished story, [Em] but it's more than just begun.
And I know more than one thing, but [Bm] not more than two or three.
[Am] And I'll tell you if you'll listen, [Em] and I'll tell you for free.
There's no life being a cowboy, [B] and eating all them [Bm] beans.
[Am]
Coffee's cold and the herd is gone, [Em] and all you've got's your dreams.
You can always put your spurs back on, [Bm] but save them for Halloween.
You're better off [Am] heading north, [C] or somewhere you've never [D] been.
