Intro: Am  G  C  Am  D  G 

   Dm 
An angel on a Harley 
                                         Am 
Pulls across to greet a fellow rolling stone 
         Dm 
Puts his bike up on it's stand 

Leans back and then extends 
                     Am 
  Scarred and greasy hand...he said 
G                                               C     G4/B Am 
  How ya doin bro?...where ya been?...where ya goin'? 
         D 
Then he takes your hand 

In some strange Californian handshake 
                G 
And breaks the bone 

        Have a nice day 
   Dm 
A housewife from Encino 

Whose husband's on the golf course 
          Am 
With his book of rules 
  Dm 
Breaks and makes a 'U' and idles back 
                          Am 
To take a second look at you 
G 
You flex your rod 
                C   G4/B Am 
Fish takes the hook 
       D 
Sweet vodka and tobacco in her breath 
G 
  Another number in your little black book

D                      G 
  Oh babe, I must be dreaming 
      Dm 
I'm standing on the leading edge 
                                      Am 
The Eastern seaboard spread before my eyes 
  Dm 
"Jump" says Yoko Ono 
                                          Am 
"I'm too scared and too good looking" I cried 
 G 
"Go on", she says 
                          C        Am 
"Why don't you give it a try? 
 D                                  G 
Why prolong the agony all men must die" 
Dm 
  Do you remember Dick Tracy? 
                 Am 
Do you remember Shane? 

And mother wants you 
           Dm 
Could you see him selling tickets 
                                 Am 
Where the buzzard circles over Shane 

The body on the plain 
        G 
Did you understand the music Yoko 
                  C         G4/B Am 
Or was it all in vain?  Shane 
     D 
The bitch said something mystical "Herro" 
       G 
So I stepped back on the kerb again
