Secret Agent Man
Johnny Rivers


Intro:  [riff]

Em                 Am              Em
There's a man who leads a life of danger
   Em                            B7
To everyone he meets, he stays a stranger
     Em                      Am
With every move he makes, another chance he takes
Em                Am            Em
Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow

       Bm      Em          Bm      Em
Secret   agent man, secret   agent man
             C           B7                         Em   [riff]
Well they've given you a number and taken 'way your name

  Em             Am             Em
Beware of pretty faces that you find
  Em                           B7
A pretty face can hide an evil mind
       Em                           Am
Ah, be careful what you say, you'll give yourself away
Em                 Am              Em
Odds are you won't live to see tomorrow

Refrain

Em              Am       Em
Swinging on the Riviera one day
Em                           B7
Lying on some balmy isle the next day
       Em                             Am
If you let the wrong word slip, while kissing persuasive lips
    Em                 Am              Em
The odds are you won't live to see tomorrow

Refrain

Em
Secret a-a-agent man
