The last I heard of you

You were somewhere on a cruise in the Mediterranean

So imagine my surprise to see you very much
alive
Am7 E7
In the English rain again

And I can still recall wet afternoons

When we were small and simply childish

But you've created your own ghost

And the need you have is more than most to hide it

Oh, Chameleon, you're stealing your way back into my eyes

Chameleon, Chameleon, Chameleon, you're free again my child
I remember still
those lazy summer days
We'd kill out hunting danger
And we were
alien
to all outsiders
We had no desire to talk to strangers
C Bb
