&quot;A Well Respected Man&quot; is a song by the British band The Kinks, originally released on the UK EP Kwyet Kinks in September 1965 (see 1965 in music). It was released as a single in the US in October and reached #13. Musically, it marked the beginning of an expansion in the Kinks' inspirations, drawing much from British music hall traditions, as well as from American rhythm and blues used later in songs such as &quot;Dedicated Follower of Fashion&quot;.

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café

La la la la la la la la Yeah,

There's a portrait

In a back room

Which I'll keep for days upon

Which I relent

It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.

C                             C6      C
Baby when I met you there was peace unknown
                            C6         C7
I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb.
      F                                     C  
I was soft inside there was something going on.

C                             C6      C
You do something to me that I can't explain
                     C6      C7         F                
Hold me closer and I feel no pain every beat of my heart
                       C           
We got something going on.

C              Fmaj7
Tender love is blind
              F
It requires a dedication.
Fm
All this love we feel needs no conversation.
   C                C6 C
We ride it together uh huh
       C                    C6 C
Making love with each other uh huh.

C
Islands in the stream
C6      F
That is what we are
Dm                        G
No one in between how can we be wrong?
      C           C6  F
Sail away with me to another world
         C                C6 C
And we rely on each other uh huh
         Dm               C6 C
From one lover to another uh huh.

C                               C6      C
I can't live without you if the love is gone
                               C6     C7
Everything is nothing when you got no one
            F
And you did walk in the night
                           C6   C
Slowly losing sight of the real thing.

    C                              C6     C
But that won't happen to us and we got no doubt
                            C6     C7
Too deep in love and we got no way out
        F
And the messages is clear
                              C6   C7
