Deep Purple - No One Came: chords

E7
Maybe it's because I'm only starting
That I think it won't take too long
Maybe it's because I can see you laughing
D        A                   E7
That I think you've got it wrong
E7
Maybe I could be like Robin Hood
Like and outlaw dressed all in green
Someone said what's he gonna turn out like
   D              A          E7
And someone else said never mind

E7         C#m
Well I was big and bold and more
than twice as old
As all the cats I'd ever seen
I grew my hair and bought a suit
Of shiny white or was it cream
I shook and shivered danced and quivered
And stood on a mountain top

Chorus:
A7
No one came from miles around and said
                            G D
Man your music is really hot

Well I knew what they meant because I was a freak
My throat was tired and worn
My pretty face just looked out of place
As they poured on the scorn
I wrote on yellow paper from a man who was the king
He said my boy we'll have some crazy scenes
There weren't any scenes at all like he was talking about
He must've been the king of queens

Well I could write a million songs
about the things I've done
But I could never sing them so
they'd never get sung
There's a law for the rich and one for the poor
And there's another one for singers
It's die young and live much longer
Spend your money and sit and wonder

Chorus

I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star
Nobody knows who's real and who's faking
Everyone's shouting out loud
It's only the glitter and shine that gets through
Where's my Robin Hood outfit

Well I've come and I've gone
before you wink an eye
No one ever cared enought to say goodbye
The money's good and the time you have
Fun and games galore
But you spend your money and lie in bed forgotten
And you wonder what you did it for

Chorus
