Since you were a small boy
          Am7 (x02010@1)            Dm7
And your mama used to say
    Am7My (x02010@1)boy is gonna grow up and be
 Dm7                   Am7 (x02010@1)  Dm7

     A6And (x04xxx@1)sing with the singer in the band

       Bm (x24432@1)              E7This (020130@1)isn't exactly what she had planned
                
                Am7 (x02010@1)             Dm7
But you're a legend in your own time

A hero in the footlights

Still have the heart of that small boy
Am7 (x02010@1)              Dm7 
Well, you lend it out far too much
Am7 (x02010@1)              Dm7 
And no one woman loving you
Am7 (x02010@1)                               Dm7  
Can ever tell if she's been really touched
