(Verse 1)
I [E]walked into this bar and the [A]man refused;
He said, "We [E]don't serve strangers in [A]blue suede shoes;
We [E]don't give credit, and we [A]don't give way
We [E]have to think about what the [A]people might say..
Uh, you [E]know what I mean" I said, "[A]Sure, man"
[E] [A]
(Verse 2)
Oh, he [E]gave me a smile that was [A]sickly and wet,
And [E]I offered him one of [A]my cigarettes.
He [E]took it, afraid that he [A]might appear rude,
Then pro[E]ceeded to sell me some [A]second class food.
[B]Nice guy meet 'em [A]everywhere[G] [F#]

(Verse 3)
He said[E], "My oh my, I have [A]suffered too long,
And [E]this cigarette seems to [A]be very strong;
I [E]don't make the rules, I just [A]get what I take
And [E]I guess every rule was [A]made to break.
You can [E]take what you like, it [A]won't hurt me
Cause [E]I'm just working for the [A]company."
From the [E]green cigarette, He [A]took a long drag,
And said, "I [E]think I'll pick my [A]traveling bag.
I'm [E]tired of cheating, and [A]wasting my head
And [E]filling the boss's [A]bags with bread.
I [E]want to get out in the [A]sun and rain,
And [E]feel the wind on my[A] skin again;
The [E]world is large, and I've [A]got time yet.
And, [E]by the way, thanks for that[A] cigarette.
[B] [A]Thank you[G] v[F#]ery much."
[E] [A] "You know, I feel like a new man
[E] [A] Yes I do, I don't know why;
[B]I'd just like to say: [A]thank you[G] v[F#]ery [E]much(indeed)[A] It's a beautiful day
[E] I think I'll be on my [A]way (right away)
[B] I'd just like to say: [A]thank yo[G]u [F#]very [E]much.
Yes[A], I'm getting the hell out of [E]here
[E]Yes, I am[A] - bye, bye.
[B]That's the end of the message. [A]Thank you[G] ve[F#]ry [E]much. B[A]ye bye[E] [A]
