(From the EP Hoots Mon)

Intro: 
 
    D5          A5          G5 
 
Then play the chords instead of picking 
 
 
Verse 1 
 
D5                            A5                  G5 A5 
As I watch the smoke drift by I contemplate my life 
D5                                  A5 G5 A5 
Am I doing this for him or just for me? 
D5                                   A5             G5  A5 
Is my conscience right to tell me to approach this man? 
D5                           A5 G5 A5 G5 B5 D5 A5 G5 
Can I be what he wants me to be? 
 
 
Verse 2 
 
D5                                   A5                 G5  A5 
Many thoughts of things to come keep running through my mind 
D5                            A5  G5  A5 
Take it all or turn and walk away? 
D5                                    A5               G5  A5 
My future looks so bright ahead but a question eats my mind 
D5                          A5 G5 A5 G5 B5 D5 A5 G5 
Can he be as bad as people say? 
 
 
Chorus 
 
D5 
There's a man who's always watching me 
A5 
He must be waiting for my popularity 
G5 
I wish he'd go away 'cause I don't like him at all 
D5 
He never has a single word to say 
A5 
And when I look at him he turns and walks away 
G5                                          D5 A5 D5 
He's not a man I know as far as I can recall 
 
 
Final riff (just like intro riff but higher) 
 
 
 
 
  
                    

     				
  
      			        
          	
          	

              
x
