Intro        Em         G         A7      Cmaj7

Verse 1

Em
Won't you take my hand
G
Won't you be my friend
A7                 Cmaj7
Take my advice, go away
Em                               G
When the days get short and the chips are down
A7                          Cmaj7
Will you be there, will you stick around

Verse 2

Em
And if thou shalt give
G
Thou shalt be deceived
A7                          Cmaj7
This traveling band was not well received
Em              G
No open arms or reception lines
A7                      Cmaj7
Just handlebars wearing five point stars

Chorus

E                   B
Am I living in your dream
G                           C  G
We got the guns, we got the guns
G                                Asus2  B
A thousand to one, a thousand to one
     Em            D
He's the man, he's the man
         C
He's the man who loved life
F
Served by different stories
                    C
Am I living in your dreams
F
Pretty metal green
                     C        Em
Can I ride upon your wings so free

Verse 4

Em                            G
In the canyon walls there's a trusty lot
A7
The stakes were high
Cmaj7
The sun was hot
Em                      G
You can rest assured as casinos rise
     A7                      Cmaj7
Buzz around my ears like the dragonflies

Chorus

E                   B
Am I living in your dream
G                           C  G
We got the guns, we got the guns
G                                Asus2  B
A thousand to one, a thousand to one
     Em            D
He's the man, he's the man
         C
He's the man who loved life
F
Served from different shores
                    C
Am I living in your dream
F
Pretty metal green
                    C         Em
Am I living in your dream, so real
F
Heard a million stories
                    C
Am I living in your dream
F
Pretty metal green
                    C             Em
