[Verse 1]
[G]This is the day[F]
Of the ex[A]panding [F]man
[G]That shape is my sha[F]de
There where I [A]used to [D]stand
[F]It seems lik[E]e only yesterday[Am]
I gazed through the [Bb]glass
At [E]ramblers, wild [B]gamblers
That's [Dm]all in the [E]past[Dm][E]

[Verse 2]
[G]You call me a foo[F]l
You say it's a [A]crazy [F]scheme
[G]This one's for rea[F]l
I already [A]bought the dream
[F]So useless to [E]ask me why
[Am]Throw a kiss and say g[Gm]oodb[C]ye
[F]I'll make it thi[Em]s time
[D]I'm ready to cro[G]ss that fine line

[Dm]I, I'll play just [C]what I feel
[Bb]Drink Scotch whisky [Am]all night [G]long
[F#]And [F]die behi[Em]nd the[F] wheel
[Am]They got a name
for the [Em]winners in the world
[Dm]I, I want a name[C] when I lose

[G]My back to the wal[F]l
A victim of [A]laughing [F]chance
[G]This is for me[F]
The essence of [A]true ro[D]mance
[F]Sharing the thi[E]ngs
we know and [Am]love
With those of my [Bb]kind
Li[E]bations, sen[B]sations
That [Dm]stagger the [E]mind[Dm][E]

[Verse 4]
[G]I crawl like a vip[F]er
Through these sub[A]urban [F]streets
[G]Make love to these wom[F]en
Languid and [A]bittersweet

[Am]Cover every game[Gm] in town[C]
[F]A world of my [Em]own
[D]I'll make it my hom[G]e sweet home

As I ap[A]proach the stand

[Am]Sue me if I play[Gm] too long[C]
[F]This brother is [Em]free
