   C            F
I wish I was a pilot
   G               Am F
Flying on a paper plane
Standing on the shoulders of giants
To be seen by every man

Chorus:
         C                        F
I'll be good for as long as I am sinner
      G                   Am F
My intentions was on the times
         C
With a slap on the wrist
   F
A kiss on the cheek
     G                 Am      F       Am  F
You give to me what's my, my, my, my, my own
F            C
C-c-c-c-come in
        Am F
What's mine
             C
You can come in

Strip down open and naked
No one really seems to care
Apparently you know the difference
Between the money and a million

Chorus

What's mine
Come in

Am
I used to want to be a hero
Until I found out even heroes die
I'm Peter Parker's alter ego
Waiting on the telephone line

The devil made me a sinner
But the good Lord's gonna save me this time
As you turn your head you go walking in the den
And leave with me what's mine, mine,
mine, mine, mine

C-C-C-C-Come in
And take what's mine
To keep
I'll tell you the sorrows of tomorrow's
dreams can bring
But I'll live it all
