Mr Jones strikes up a conversation

With a blackhaired flamenco dancer
         Am  Am7              F            Dm7   
You know she dances while his father plays guitar

And pass me a bottle Mr Jones
Am            F  Dm                 G       
  Believe in me help me believe in anything

'cause I I wanna be someone who believes

 Mr Jones and me tell each other fairy tales
       C                      F    
And we stare at the beautiful women
              G                                  
She's looking at you Ah no no she's looking at me
C                F                   G                  
Standing in this bright light coming  through in stereo
     C         F         G                     Am7   
When everybody loves you  you should never be lonely

[Verse]
               Am             F      
Well I'm gonna paint myself a picture
Dm7             G                          Am  
Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
                     F                    G         
All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful
                   Am   Am7         F    
Yeah you know gray it's my favorite color
       Dm7    G                
I just get so confused everyday
Am7           F      
But if I knew Picasso
        G                            C   
I would buy myself a gray guitar and play


[Chorus]
   F            G                     
Mr Jones and me  look into the future
                 C             F    
Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
                 G                                       
She's looking at you I don't think so She's looking at me
C               F           G                          
Standing in the spotlight I bought myself a gray guitar
     C         F        G
When everybody loves me 
                   Am    
I hope I never get lonely

                  C
I wanna be a lion

 Everybody wants to pass as cats

  We all wanna be big bigbig big stars
G                                              
Yeah but then we get second thoughts about that
Am                      F                          
  Believe in me 'cause I don't believe in anything
        C     Am                  G      
And I I don't wanna be someone to believe

You should not believe in me


[Chorus]
          F            G                           
'cause Mr Jones and me stumbling through the barrio
        C            F              
Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
G                                                    C     
She's perfect for you Man there's got to be somebody for me
           F        
I wanna be Bob Dylan
G                                                      
Mr Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
C    F                  
When everybody loves you
G                                                   C 
Sometimes that's just about as fucked up as you can be
          F               G              
Can't you hear me because  I'm screaming
C            F       G        
I did not go outside yesterday
C             F              G       
Don't wake me  'cause I was dreaming
C                            F           G
And I might just stay inside again today 
C F               G
 Mr Jones and me 
                  G                 
We don't see each other much anymore
