Verse:
Em                 Am              Em
There’s a man who leads a life of danger
    Em                            B7
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger
     Em                      Am
With every move he makes, another chance he takes
Em                Am            Em
Odds are he won’t live to see tomorrow

Chorus:
      Bm     Em         Bm     Em
Secret Agent Man, Secret Agent Man
        C           B7                         Em
They've given you a number and taken away your name

   Em               Am               B7               Bm               C
