Mr. Jones Am F Dm G / C F G

I was down at the New Amsterdam, staring at this yellow haired girl
Mr, Jones strikes up this conversation with this black haired flamenco dancer
She dances while her father plays guitar. She’s suddenly beautiful
We all want something beautiful, I wish I was beautiful

So come dance this silence down through the morning, sha la la la la la uh huh
Cut up Maria, show me some of them Spanish dances
Pass me a bottle Mr. Jones
Believe in me, help me believe in anything I want to be someone who believes

CH{ C Mr. F Jones and me G tell each other fairy tales Stare at the beautiful women
She’s looking at you , ah no, she’s looking at me
Smiling in the bright lights Coming through in stereo
When everybody loves you, you can never be lonely

I will paint my picture, paint myself in blue and red and black and grey
All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful
Grey is my favorite color, I felt so symbolic yesterday
If I knew Picasso I would buy myself a grey guitar and plays

CH{ Mr. Jones and me, look into the future Stare at the beautiful women
She’s looking at you, I don’t think so, she’s looking at me
Standing in the spotlight, I bought myself a grey guitar
When everybody loves me, I will never be lo…nely

Am I will never be F lonely, Am I will never be G lo…nely
Am I want to be a lion, F everybody wants to pass as cats
Am We all want to be big big stars, G but we got different reasons for that
Am Believe in me, because F I don’t believe in anything
Am And I want to be G someone to believe, to believe, to believe

CH{ Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the Barrio
Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
She’s perfect for you, there’s got to be somebody for me
I want to be Bob Dylan
Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
When everybody loves you, son, that’s about as funky as you can be

CH{ Mr. Jones and me, staring at the video
When I look at the television want to see me staring right back at me
We all want to be big stars, but we don’t know why, and we don’t know how
But when everybody loves me, I’m gonna be just about as happy as I can be
Mr. Jones and me, we’re gonna be big stars………
