Intro:
F G C Am F G C
F
Well I spoke to this man
G C
Said he'd been to the moon
Am F
Carved his name in the ground
G
Saw the world spinning round
C
(and) came back that afternoon.
F
And I laughed at this man
G C
Said he'd been lost at sea
Am F
Heard the sirens' call
G
Seen the pirates fall
C
To the monsters in the deep
F
I said I'd heard some tall tales
G Am
Some good stories in my time
Em F
So I asked him for proof
G
And he showed me the truth
C
There was dancing in his eyes.
1st horn interlude: F G C Am F G C
(you can play the guitar "riff" here, if you fancy)
F
I could not believe this man
G C
Said he was a millionaire
Am F
He said: "I know I dress in rags
G
But I drive a vintage 'Jag'
C
And I've got a diamond chandelier".
F
I said I think I need a drink
G Am

And made my way outside
Em F
You know I'd swear this was a spoof
G
If it wasn't for the truth
C
There was dancing in his eyes.
2nd horn interlude/solo: F G C Am F G C X2
(He isn't actually strumming anything here in the last part, maybe just one strum for each chord will do)
F
When I came back in the room
G C
The man had disappeared
Am F
He left a rock from the moon
G
An eyepatch and a diamond
C
From a chandelier.
