C# B (x2)

C#            B                 C#       B
Back in sixty-eight in a sweaty club (oh Geno)
       C#                      B             C#   B
Before Jimmy's machine and the rocksteady rub (oh Geno)
     B                         F#m
On a night when flowers didn't suit my shoes
        B                    F#m
After a week of flunkin' and bunkin' school
    B                  F#m
The lowest head in the crowd that night
    B                             F#m
Just practicin' steps and keepin' out of the fights


A         E          B            F#
 Academic inspiration you gave me none
A           E              B                 F#
 You were Michael the lover the fighter that won
A             E                   B               F#
 And now just look at me as I'm a-looking down on you
A           E               B                  F#
 No I'm not being flash it's what I'm built to do

C# B (x2)

C#                B                        C#         B
That man took the stage his towel swinging high (oh Geno)
C#              B                     C#        B
This man was my bombers, my dexys, my highs (oh Geno)
        B                             F#m
And the crowd they all hailed you and chanted your name
               B                        F#m
But they never knew like we knew me and you we're the same
    B                      F#m
And now your all over your song is so tame
    B                                  F#m
Brrrr you fed me your bread and I'll remember your name

A         E          B            F#
 Academic inspiration you gave me none
A           E              B                 F#
 You were Michael the lover the fighter that won
A             E                   B               F#
 And now just look at me as I'm a-looking down on you
A           E               B                  F#
 No I'm not being flash it's what I'm built to do
