Standard (EADGBE)

 A worried man with a worried mind

No one in front of me and nothing behind

 There's a woman on my lap and she's drinking champagne

Got white skin, got assassin's eyes

 I'm looking up into the sapphire tinted skies

 I'm well dressed, waiting on the last train

Standing on the gallows with my head in a noose

 Any minute now I'm expecting all hell to break loose

People are crazy and times are strange

 I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range

 I used to care, but things have changed

This place ain't doing me any good

I'm in the wrong town, I should be in Hollywood

 Just for a second there I thought I saw something move

Gonna take dancing lessons do the jitterbug rag

Ain't no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag

 Only a fool in here would think he's got anything to prove

 Lot of water under the bridge, lot of other stuff too

Don t get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through

People are crazy and times are strange

I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range

 I used to care, but things have changed

 I've been walking forty miles of bad road

 If the bible is right, the world will explode

 I've been trying to get as far away from myself as I can

Some things are too hot to touch

 The human mind can only stand so much

You can't win with a losing hand

Feel like falling in love with the first woman I meet

Putting her in a wheel barrow and wheeling her down the street

People are crazy and times are strange

 I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range

 I used to care, but things have changed

 I hurt easy, I just don't show it

 You can hurt someone and not even know it

 The next sixty seconds could be like an eternity

 Gonna get low down, gonna fly high

 All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie

 I'm love with a woman who don't even appeal to me

 Mr. Jinx and Miss Lucy, they jumped in the lake

I'm not that eager to make a mistake

People are crazy and times are strange

 I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range

 I used to care, but things have changed
