A          F 
When I was young 
                         A 
Coach called me the tiger

I always had

A knack with the danger

Living in fear in the year of the tiger 


        F 
Italian shoes 
Like these rubes know the difference 
            G 
Suitcase of cash 
In the back of my stick shift 
       F 
I had to be the best of the bourgeoisie 
       G 
And my kingdom for a cup of coffee

Living in fear in the year of the tiger
