Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
Well I loved the Lone Ranger [Bm]and I loved
that Dennis Law
[Am]Him and George Best,
sure knew [Em]how a kick a ball
I wanted tae be a cowboy,
and [Bm]learn a crack a whip
[A]Stand up in [Am]that lonely street,
two [Em]six guns on my hip
Along the mighty Beatles came,
and every[Bm]one went ahhh
They could [Am]play and sing and everything,
[Em]and of course that John could draw
Well that was it for me,
I [Bm]nev er once looked back
[A]Tricks [Am]to learn, waves to catch,
[Em]had a plan of attack

[Verse 2]
[D]
Are you lookin' at [Am]me?
[Em]Are you lookin' at m[D]e?
Are you lookin' at me?
[Am]Are [Em]you lookin' at me, pal?

[Verse 3]
[Em]
Then we headed south,
where the [Bm]surf came crashing in
From [A]black and white [Am]to colour,
from in[Em]nocence to sin
It was summer in December,
[Bm]blowing heatwaves in my mind
[Am]People talking funny,
some [Em]cruel and some were kind
From the crackle of the cane,
[Bm]to the frown of a big black snake
From the [Am]breakers at Bondi,
[Em]down to Wallaga Lake
From the sound of a million fly screen doors,
[Bm]closing on the past
Like [Am]that chimney the fires couldn't burn,
[Em]I was built to last

[Verse 4]
[D]
Are you lookin' at me?
[Am]Are [Em]you lookin' at me[D]?
Are you lookin' at [Am]me?[Em]

[Verse 5]
Are you lookin' at me, pal?
[Em]
When I flew across the ocean,
[Bm]I was number one
[Am]People gave me everything,
and I [Em]did n't need a gun
Walking down that avenue,
I never felt [Bm]so alive
[Am]People calling out my name,
and I'd [Em]only just arrived

[Verse 6]
[Em]It was a tight rope walking bagpiper,
in [Bm]the middle of Central Park
[Am]Steam was rising from the ground,
and I wore [Em]my cape out after dark
I had myself a moment,
[Bm]my day out in the sun
[Am]It's an unfinished story,
[Em]but it's more than just begun

[Verse 7]
[Em]
And I know more than one thing,
[Bm]but not more than two or three
[Am]An I'll tell you if you'll listen,
and I'll [Em]tell you for free
It's no life being a cowboy,
[Bm]and eating all them beans
The [A]coffee's [Am]cold, 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 [Am]better off heading north,
or somewhere you've never [D]been

[Verse 8]
Are you lookin' at [Am]me?[Em][D]
Are you lookin' at [Am]me?[Em]
[D]Are[Am][Em]
[D]you lookin' at me?[Am]
[Em]I said, are you lookin' at me, pal?
