E 
I wanna chill,I wanna sit real still
E
I wanna sleep like the dead on a bed of roses
C#m       D
Me and my lovely wife
A            D7
We're in the prime of life

E
I wanna feel real, I wanna free-wheel
E
I wanna steal the show from under their noses
C#m     Bm
I wanna get you off
A             Abm
Ain't that enough?

          F#m            F#
I'm gonna abseil down my ivory tower
    B            B7
And buy myself a jaguar


     C#m   C#m7  A      F#  (Riff run up: F#, G, Ab, A, Bb, B)
I'm a bad  am-----bassador
C         A7                  D7        B7
For that elusive place you're searching for
        C#m  C#m7  C#m6    Am9
I wanna show you   so much more
    E  C#m    D   A     D7     E
But maybe some other time


I wanna play with the big boys
I wanna ride with tough guys
On a japanese motorbike
I wanna hold your hand
Hey, What's your favoutrite band?

I wanna look like they looked
I wanna shake like they shook
I wanna take what they took
I wanna get you high
Don't ask me why

Coz it's just something I've got to do
I'll try to make it up to you

I'm a bad ambassador
C         A7                  D7        B7
For that elusive place you're searching for
        C#m C#m7   C#m6     Am9
I wanna show you   so much more
   E  C#m    D   A     D7     E
But maybe some other time
   E  C#m    D   A     D7     C
Yeah, maybe some other time

Well I'm not the pope and I don't wanna be
    B              B7
The Arch Bishop of Canterbury


I'm a bad ambassador
For that elusive place you're searching for
I wanna show you so much more
Yeah I could show you so much more
But I'm a bad ambassador
Well, Maybe some other time...
