[Verse 1]
E7+9
Maybe it's because I'm only starting
E7+9
That I think it won't take too long
E7+9 D
Maybe it's because I can see you laughing
A E7
That I think you've got it wrong
E7+9
Maybe I could be like Robin Hood
E7+9
Like and outlaw dressed all in green
E7+9
Someone said what's he gonna turn out like
D A E7
And someone else said never mind
[Pre-Chorus]
E7 C#m
Well I was big and bold and more than twice as old
C#m
As all the cats I'd ever seen
C#m
I grew my hair and bought a suit
C#m
Of shiny white or was it cream
C#m
I shook and shivered danced and quivered
C#m A7
And stood on a mountain top
[Chorus]
A7
No one came from miles around and said
A7 G D
Man your music is really hot
[Verse 2]
E7+9
Well I knew what they meant because I was a freak
E7+9
My throat was tired and worn
E7+9 D
My pretty face just looked out of place
A E7
As they poured on the scorn
E7+9
I wrote on yellow paper from a man who was the king
E7+9
He said my boy we'll have some crazy scenes
E7+9 D
There weren't any scenes at all like he was talking about
A E7
He must've been the king of queens
[Pre-Chorus]
E7 C#m
Well I could write a million songs about the things I've done
C#m
But I could never sing them so they'd never get sung
C#m
There's a law for the rich and one for the poor
C#m

And there's another one for singers
C#m
It's die young and live much longer
C#m A7
Spend your money and sit and wonder
[Chorus]
A7
No one came for miles around
A7
And said man your music is really funky
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
E7+9
I believe that I must tell the truth
E7+9
And say things as they really are
E7+9 D
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
A E7
Could I ever be a star
E7+9
Nobody knows who's real and who's faking
E7+9
Everyone's shouting out loud
E7+9 D
It's only the glitter and shine that gets through
A E7
Where's my Robin Hood outfit
[Pre-Chorus]
E7 C#m
Well I've come and I've gone before you wink an eye
C#m
No one ever cared enought to say goodbye
C#m
The money's good and the time you have
C#m
Fun and games galore
C#m
But you spend your money and lie in bed forgotten
C#m A7
And you wonder what you did it for
[Chorus]
A7
No one came from miles around
A7
And said man who's he?
