`Cause I`m tired of these scenes

For a blue coin won`t you bring back

all those colours to my dreams

Sugar Man met a false friend
On a lonely dusty road
Lost my heart when I found it
It had turned to dead black coal
Silver Magic ships etc.
3.
Sugar Man you`re the answer
That makes my questions disappear
Sugar Man `cause I`m weary
Of those double games I hear
-8 7 8-8 8   -8 7 8-8 8  -8 7 8-8 8
Sugar Man   Sugar Man   Sugar Man
