The way I see it he said, you just can't win it,
            G                                              D
Everybody's in it for their own gain; you can't please 'em all,
               C                       E
There's always somebody putting you down,
                           A
I do my best and I do good business,
                        G
There's a lot of people asking for my time,
                          D
They're tryin' to get ahead; 
                  C                   E
they're tryin' to be a good friend of   mine,

I was a free man in Paris, 
       D
I felt unfettered and alive, 
G                Esus4             A
There was nobody callin' me up for favours 
            E
and no-ones future to decide,
             C
You know I'd go back there tomorrow 
            D                   G
but for the work I've taken on,
            Esus4          A                E
stokin' the star maker machinary behind the popular songs.

      E                        A
I deal in dreamers and telephone screamers,
         G                                    D
Lately I wonder what I do it for; if I had my way,
         C                                E
I'd just walk through those doors, and wan-der,
                  A
down the Champs Elysees;
              G
going cafe to cabaret, thinking
                         D
how I'd feel when I find,  
     C                   E
that very good friend of   mine
