[Verse]
A D The way I see it, he said, you just can't win it C G Everybody's in it for their own gain; you can't please them all F A There's always somebody calling you down D I do my best and I do good business C There's a lot of people asking for my time G They're tryin' to get ahead F A They're tryin' to be a good friend of mine
[Chorus]
F I was a free man in Paris G C I felt unfettered and alive Asus4 D There was nobody callin' me up for favors A And no one’s future to decide F You know I'd go back there tomorrow G C But for the work I've taken on Asus4 D A Stoking the star-maker machinery behind the popular songs

[Verse]
A D I deal in dreamers and telephone screeners C G Lately I wonder what I do it for; if I had my way F A I'd just walk through those doors and wander D Down the Champs Elysees; C Going café to cabaret G Thinking how I'll feel when I find F A That very good friend of mine
[Chorus]
F I was a free man in Paris G C I felt unfettered and alive Asus4 D Nobody callin' me up for favors A And no one’s future to decide F You know I'd go back there tomorrow G C But for the work I've taken on Asus4 D A Stoking the star-maker machinery behind the popular songs
