Song Structure/Lyrics:
======================
---> Play Riff 1 (x1)
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Nick:
  He was a king 'til she laid waste
  Now he can not fill up the space
  And I just see him drifting
  While he's drifting
  On bourbon alley feeling low
  Just because she let him go
  I don't think he even knows
  He'll ever be fine
---> Play Riff 2 (x2)
---> Play Chorus over:
Nick & SA:
  He's got a head full of ideas
  Let me tell ya that you wouldn't believe
  And he's got a heart made of pure gold
  And something else many tricks up his sleeve
  You might think he's a jester because he'll
  Make you laugh til' you cry and what else
  You better come with your best if you test him
  Unless you're ready to die
---> Play Riff 3 over:
SA:
  Wonder woman ditched wonder man
  That man's not part of your wonder plan
  Letter to the so called better bet on my man
  Believe it you will find out baby, ***
---> Play Chorus over:
Nick:
  He's got a head full of ideas
  Let me tell ya that you wouldn't believe
  And he's got a heart made of pure gold
  And something else many tricks up his sleeve
  You might think he's a jester because he'll
  Make you laugh til' you cry and what else
  You better come with your best if you test him
  Unless you're ready to die
---> Play Riff 1 (x1)
---> Play Riff 1 (x2) with Fill 1
---> Play Riff 1 over:
  A million people come and go
  Through a persons ebb and flow
  And faces keep on changing
  While they're changing
  Some certain few will stay in tact
  When they're not built on an act
  I know this important fact
  Don't get confused like
---> Play Riff 2 (x2)
---> Play Chorus over:
Nick & SA:
  He's got a head full of ideas
  Let me tell ya that you wouldn't believe
  And he's got a heart made of pure gold
  And something else many tricks up his sleeve
  You might think he's a jester because he'll
  Make you laugh til' you cry and what else
  You better come with your best if you test him
  Unless you're ready to die
---> Play Riff 3 over:
SA:
  First you love him then your loving him not
  All the while he just smiles giving all that he's got
  Do you find it in your heart to say he's not
  What you sought do you want me to continue with this or what
---> Play Chorus over:
Nick:
  Whoa yeah, Whoa yeah
Nick & SA:
  He's got a head full of ideas
  Let me tell ya that you wouldn't believe
  And he's got a heart made of pure gold
  And something else many tricks up his sleeve, sleeve, sleeve
