Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
I fell in love with the string man
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Who played guitar in a rock and roll band
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
And every night I'd watch them play
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
But it happened at the matinee---
ch]B[/ch
How I squirmed when he bent those strings
ch]C[/ch
And I screamed when he started to sing
ch]F[/ch
The way he moved and looked so groovy
ch]F[/ch
Well, ya know, he did something to me
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
String man...string man...string man...string man...
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
So I followed the string man
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Who played guitar in a string band
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
And every night I'd watch them play
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And they got better everyday
ch]B[/ch
Pretty soon, and what do ya think (what do you think)
ch]C[/ch
Everybody's saying they're the biggest thing (the biggest thing)---
ch]F[/ch
Hit records and making the scene (the scene)
ch]F[/ch
Sexy pictures in the fan magazines
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
String man...string man...string man...string man...
Horn Instrumental

Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
I strung along with the string man;
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
He always called me his biggest fan
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Though he was kind, I should have known better
ch]Bb[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Than to think we'd always stay together
ch]B[/ch
And then one night the show was wild and loud
ch]C[/ch
And I saw a pretty girl out in the crowd
ch]F[/ch
She waved at him and caught his eye;
ch]F[/ch
The way he looked at her it made me cry
N.C.
String man---
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch
String man...string man...
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch
String man...string man...
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Bb[/ch
String man...string man...
