Intro                                

Verse 1


Won't you take my hand

Won't you be my friend
                 
Take my advice, go away
                               
When the days get short and the chips are down
                          
Will you be there, will you stick around

Verse 2


And if thou shalt give

Thou shalt be deceived
                          
This traveling band was not well received
              
No open arms or reception lines
                      
Just handlebars wearing five point stars

Chorus

                   
Am I living in your dream
                             
We got the guns, we got the guns
                                  
A thousand to one, a thousand to one
                 
He's the man, he's the man
         
He's the man who loved life

Served by different stories
                    
Am I living in your dreams

Pretty metal green
                             
Can I ride upon your wings so free

Verse 4

                            
In the canyon walls there's a trusty lot

The stakes were high

The sun was hot
                      
You can rest assured as casinos rise
                           
Buzz around my ears like the dragonflies

Chorus

                   
Am I living in your dream
                             
We got the guns, we got the guns
                                  
A thousand to one, a thousand to one
                 
He's the man, he's the man
         
He's the man who loved life

Served from different shores
                    
Am I living in your dream

Pretty metal green
                             
Am I living in your dream, so real

Heard a million stories
                    
Am I living in your dream

Pretty metal green
                                 
Am I living in your dream
