There is a second VERSE which uses the same RIFF as the first VERSE

Followed by the second CHORUS, which is exactly the same as the first CHORUS

Then there is a second BRIDGE which is the same but REPEATED 4 TIMES

LYRICS TO SECOND VERSE

You've seen the man, he calls out for a drink, and you're all

You're all tied up in your backstage lines

And you, you just can't move a muscle

Six in the morning and you rise and you fall, you got to

You got to grab what you can

Here comes your man, baby, he's a winner, yeah

He's a gunslinger
