Legend in Your Own Time Carly Simon
Legend In Your Own Time from Anticipation - 1971
Intro: E7#5
W[Am7]ell I have known yo[Dm7]u
Since you were a s[Am7]mall boy[Dm7]
And your m[Am7]ama used to say[Dm7]
My b[Am7]oy is gonna grow up and be
S[Dm7]ome kind of leader som[Am7]e day[Dm7]
[E7]Then you'd turn on the radio
And s[A6]ing with the singer in the band
[Am7]And your mama would say to you
This is[Bm]n't exactly what s[E7]he had planned
But you're a leg[Am7]end in your own ti[Dm7]me
[Am7]A hero in the footl[Dm7]ights
[Am7]Playin' tunes to f[Dm7]it your rhyme
But a legen[Bm]ds only a lonel[E7]y boy
When he g[Am7]oes home alone.[Dm7]
[Dm7] [Am7] [Dm7] [E] [E7]
[Am7]And although I know[Dm7] you
[Am7]Still have the hear[Dm7]t of that small boy
[Am7]Well, you lend it o[Dm7]ut far too much
[Am7]And no one woman lo[Dm7]ving you
[Am7]Can ever tell if she's been really t[Dm7]ouched
[E7]Then you turn on the radio
And s[A6]ing with the singer in the band
[Am7]And think kind of sadly to yourself
[Bm]This isn't exactly what you had[E7] planned
But you're a leg[Am7]end in your own ti[Dm7]me
[Am7]A hero in the footl[Dm7]ights
[Am7]Playin' tunes to f[Dm7]it your rhyme
But a legen[Bm]ds only a lonel[E7]y boy
When he g[Am7]oes home alone....[Dm7] (Ab [Am7]lib)[Dm7] [Am7]
