SILVER SPOON
Paul Stanley, Vini Poncia
Intro: Guitar only:
Rhy. Fig 1:
Rhy. Fig 2a: (2x)
Rhy. Fig 2a: (2x)
I ain't lookin' like nobody's fool, save it for somebody else
And I ain't makin' any desperate move, 'till I'm satisfied myself
Rhy. Fig 2b:
I ain't waitin' for no invitation, I just wanna walk on thru
Rhy. Fig 3a:
I never needed anybody, and like my daddy said
Rhy. Fig 4: (2x)
I wasn't born with a silver spoon, nowhere to hide in a crowded room
Rhy. Fig 5a:
I see the attitude that's in your eyes, I got no reason to apologize
'Cos what's so special 'bout a girl like you
With a silver spoon
Rhy. Fig 2a:
Rhy. Fig 2a:
In a city where the buildings rise, I was just another face
Rhy. Fig 2b:
But mama told me when somebody dies, no one else can take your place
Rhy. Fig 3a:
I never needed anybody, and like my daddy said
Rhy. Fig 4: (2x)
I wasn't born with a silver spoon, nowhere to hide in a crowded room
Rhy. Fig 5a:
I see the attitude that's in your eyes, I got no reason to apologize
'Cos I've got something for a girl like you
With a silver spoon
Rhy. Fig 2a: (4x)
Rhy. Fig 3b:
I always knew I'd be somebody, I kept it in my head
I never needed anybody, and like my daddy said
Rhy. Fig 4: (2x)
I wasn't born with a silver spoon, nowhere to hide in a crowded room
Rhy. Fig 5b:
I see the attitude that's in your eyes, I got no reason to apologize
'Cos I've got something for a girl like you
Girl like you, girl like you, with a silver spoon
Rhy. Fig 2c: (2x)
"Don't try to tell me where you're going or what you'll do,
'cause where I'm from... Everybody's somebody. Hey!"
Rhy. Fig 2c:
You've got everything but much to soon
I wasn't born with a silver spoon
Everything u wanted underneath the moon
I wasn't born with a silver spoon
(repeat and fade)
