Written by Ian Hunter, Overend Watts, Mick Ralphs, Dale "Buffin" Griffin and

Verden Allen.

Intro: G C

G C

Verse:

G G7
I changed my name in search of fame

C G
To find the Midas touch

Bm G G7
Oh I wish I hadn't wanted then

C
What I want now twice as much

G G7
We crossed the mighty oceans

C G
And we had a few divides

Bm G G7
But we never crossed emotion

C G
For we felt too much inside

Chorus:

D C
You know all the tales we tell

Bm G
You know the band so well

G7 C D G C G
But still I feel somehow, we've let you down

D C
We went off somewhere on the way

Bm G G7
And now I see we have to pay

C D C Bm Am G C
The rock 'n' roll circus is in town

G C

Verse:

And Buffin lost his child-like dreams

And Mick lost his guitar

And Verden grew a line or two

And Overends' just a rock 'n' roll star

Behind these shades

The vision fades
