B7            F#m
  Sheep dog standing in the rain,
B7          F#m
  Bullfrog doing it again.
A               F#m          E
  Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles.
A                  F#m                    B7
  What makes you think you're something special
  When you smile?

B7           F#m
  Childlike no one understands,
B7          F#m
  Jackknife in your sweaty hands,
A              F#m           E
  Some kind of innocence is measured out in years.
A                  F#m              B7
  You don't know what it's like to listen
  To your fears.

Chorus:
Bm               Bm7
You can talk to me.
                 Em
You can talk to me.
Em6              Em7
You can talk to me.
           Bm             Em      Bm
If you're lonely you can talk to me.


B7         F#m
  Big man walking in the park,
B7         F#m
  Wigwam frightened of the dark,
A               F#m         E
  Some kind of solitude is measured out in you.
A                 F#m            B7
  You think you know it but you haven't got a clue.


Chorus:
Bm               Bm7
You can talk to me.
                 Em
You can talk to me.
Em6              Em7
You can talk to me.
           Bm             Em      Bm    B7
If you're lonely you can talk to me.

F#m         B7
   Hey bulldog.
F#m         B7
   Hey bulldog.
F#m         B7
   Hey bulldog.
F#m         B7
   Hey bulldog.
