Well they tell ’em that I’m doin fine watching shadows on the wall:
F Dm G G G G
«Don’t you miss the big time, boy ? You’re no longer on the ball.»

One correction:
G G/F Am Am/G
No longer riding on the merry ground.
F#m7 F Ab6
I just had to let it go.
^^^^ This should be F#m7-5, or Am/F#. (202210)
And someone might want to go through and fix the numerous typos in that
posting. Other than that, the chords look okay.
