There's A Man Behind The Guitar - John Miles

There’s a man behind the guitar

And he’s not too happy as a superstar

Am I asking too much

Will you reach out and touch

The man behind the guitar?

Big Motors comin'

Smokin', Dixie gum in

Knit me into a plastic man

Who can that natural be?

Smile though I don’t feel good

Wear clothes that they would

Losing all my best friends

Who are asking what happened to me

Take a good look and see

There’s a man behind the guitar

And he’s not too happy as a superstar

Am I asking too much?

Will you reach out and touch

The man behind the guitar?

Boy you will go far

You will be a real star

So much money to spend

That you can buy anything that you see

A movie queen to escort you

In the big Cadillac that we bought you

All these things and all I want

Is not like how it used to be

Just take a good look and see

Still get kicks out of guitar layin'

The girls go wild when they see my style

There’s a man behind the guitar

And he’s not too happy as a superstar

Am I asking too much

Will you reach out and touch

The man behind the guitar?
