A
James Dean, James Dean
A
I know just what you mean
D            A
James Dean, you said it all so clean
E                  D
And I know my life would look allright
A
If I could see it on the silver screen
A
You were the lowdown rebel if there ever was
A
Even if you had no cause
D            A
James Dean, you said it all so clean
E                  D
And I know my life would look all right
A
If I could see it on the silver screen

D
We'll talk about a low-down bad refrigerator,
A
You were just too cool for school
D                   
Sock hop, soda pop, basketball and auto shop,
E                                           D
The only thing that got you off was breakin' all the rules
A
James Dean, James Dean
A
So hungry and so lean
D            A
James Dean, you said it all so clean
E                  D
And I know my life would look all right
A
If I could see it on the silver screen

D
Little James Dean, up on the screen
A
Wond'rin' who he might be
D
Along came a Spyder and picked up a rider
E
And took him down the road to eternity

A                       D                      A
James Dean, James Dean, you bought it sight unseen

A
You were too fast to live, too young to die, (bye-bye)
A
You were to fast to live, too young to die, (bye-bye)
A
Bye-bye, Bye-bye, Bye-bye, Bye, bye
