Julian Velard - The Guy Who Chords

* = one strum 

   G                     
I remember when we were five
   C
A couple of kids sitting side by side
   G
On a picture perfect day on the way 
   C*
to school
   G
Along came Brendon Jimmy James
   C
With his golden hair and his angel face
   G
He stole my brand new bike 
                  C*
and my girlfriend too
(He stole you too)

            G*              D*      C*
All of the nights that I've spent alone
          G*             D*        C*
Am I the dog who doesn't get the bone


Chorus:
 G
Tell me what I gotta do
      D
Gotta walk across the wire for you
      C
Gotta catch a bullet in my teeth
      G
Do pushups in the desert heat
      G
Tame a lion, get black and blue
      D
From boxing with a kangaroo
      C
Still you never notice what it is I'm going through
 G                      D                      C
How do I get to be the guy who gets to be with you
                         G*
How do I get to be with you

  G
Midnight strikes and the line is long
  C
For the monster movie marathon
  G
When I get the guts to ask you to the prom
  C
Thanks but no you say to me
  G
'Cause Captain Dan on the football team
  C
Is so good-lookin and he's twice as strong
(he's twice as strong)

            G*              D*        C*
All of the days that I've dreamed of love
          G*             D*            C*
My time has come now - I've dreamed enough


Chorus:
 G
Tell me what I gotta do
      D
Gotta walk across the wire for you
      C
Gotta catch a bullet in my teeth
      G
Do pushups in the desert heat
      G
Tame a lion, get black and blue
      D
From boxing with a kangaroo
      C
Still you never notice what it is I'm going through
 G                      D                      C
How do I get to be the guy who gets to be with you
                         G*
How do I get to be with you

   C*                 G*
I can see us in the future
               C*
Girl in the picture
               G*
Where are you now
   C*                       G*
Remember when you see me waving
                      C*
It's not 'cause I'm waving
                     D*
You're watching me drown

            G*             D*       C*
All of the nights that I've spent alone
                G*        D*     C*
Why can't you throw this dog a bone

Chorus:
 G
Tell me what I gotta do
      D
Gotta walk across the wire for you
      C
Gotta catch a bullet in my teeth
      G
Do pushups in the desert heat
      G
Tame a lion, get black and blue
      D
From boxing with a kangaroo
      C
Still you never notice what it is I'm going through
 G                      D                      C
How do I get to be the guy who gets to be with you
 C
Shoot myself into outer space
 C
Lose the cops in a getaway chase
 G                      D                      C                  
How do I get to be the guy who gets to be with you
 C
Save a baby in a burning fire
 C
Be the man that you desire
 G                      D                       C
How do I get to be the guy who gets to be with you
                         G*
How do I get to be with you
