GROOVY MOVIES- The Kinks

B E  RIFF  B E  RIFF

E                          A              E  E6  E7    
Sometimes I think I'm gonna better myself 
E                                A               E  E6  E7
Searching for acceptance in this big, wide world 
A                         D                 
Sometimes I think I won't make it
A                          D  
Playing in a rock 'n' roll band
    E          
Sometimes I wanna be a big shot director 
    D          
And try to make the world understand 

CHORUS:
                 A        D 
By making groovy movies 
                 A        D 
By making groovy movies 
                 A        D   E  RIFF
By making groovy movies 

All the movie makers of the world would be
Falling over backwards to have dinner with me 
I'll go down to [see my producer] 
And anytime I feel like a break
Or take a long vacation to San Tropez 
And think of all the money I'd make ...CHORUS

I don't want to be a producer 
I don't want to be a big star 
I just want to be a big shot director
And smoke a big Havana cigar ...CHORUS TWICE
