You think you're gonna please her

       F
so you walk right up and tease her

        E              A
but she walks right on by

F#
You're scared to walk beside her

              F
'cause you're playin' with a spider

       E          A
who posesses the sky

              E                  A
She's got the green backs, my oh my

          E              A
You gotta act tall think big

                    E           A
if you wanna make a mark in her book

            E                   A
Gotta get a hit get a car fancy clothes

                          E              A
or she'll throw you right off of her hook

           E
Here's the news you are but one fish in her back garden sea

A                   E             A
  Gotta make like a shark to be free

                      E
Somethin' bad on your mind get it off
Take my tip, get it off, take my tip,
       B           Bb          A
get on out

F#
