Chameleon
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the album Blue Moves
G Bm/F# Em G/D C G/B Am7 G/B C D
G Bm/F# Em G/D
The last I heard of you
C G/B Am7 C
You were somewhere on a cruise in the Mediterranean
G/D Bm/F# Em G/D C G/B
So imagine my surprise to see you very much alive
Am7 E7
In the English rain again
Am
And I can still recall wet afternoons
C/G D
When we were small and simply childish
G A/G D/A
But you've created your own ghost
F#/Bb Dsus4 D
And the need you have is more than most to hide it
F G F G C
Oh, Chameleon, you're stealing your way back into my eyes
D/C G/D
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
C/E D/F#
You're a devil, you're a devil in disguise
B Em A Dsus4 D
Do you really change me, or am I going crazy
G Bm/D C C/D G
Chameleon, Chameleon, Chameleon, you're free again my child
I remember still those lazy summer days
We'd kill out hunting danger
And we were alien to all outsiders
We had no desire to talk to strangers
C Bb
