Amsterdam Chords by Al Stewart

[Eb] Oh, I just came back from Holland on the very last day of autumn
Made it through the customs, took the bus [Bb] into town _ _
[Fm] The flat looked cold and empty, [Db] the chairs unused and dusty
[Bb] Just a few old letters and papers lying [Eb] around _ _
The Dutch people were friendly, you know, they put me up and they fed me
All along the tour of one [Ab] night stands _
[Abm] All my days and all my [Eb] ways are so confused
I tell you [Bb] right now, I'm gonna make it back [Eb] to Amsterdam
And you can [C] feel [Gb] fine any [F] time you choose [Bb] to lose yourself [Eb] for a while
Bottle [Ab] of wine, [Bb] some backstreet [C] cafe
_ [Bb]
Or out [Cm] on the streets [F] as a chance for you [Bb] to meet anybody [Eb] you please
Taking [Ab] the time [F] to ease your [Ab] blues away
[Bb] _
[Eb] Fred was a crazy driver, he took us at a hundred miles an hour
Down a side street out of a traffic [Ab] jam
All [Abm] my days and all my [Eb] ways are so confused
I tell [Bb] you right now, I'm gonna make it back to [Eb] Amsterdam _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _
_ [Ab] _ [Bb] Oh, _ [C] _ _ [Bb] _
_ [Cm] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _
_ [Ab] _ _ [F] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Bb] _
[Eb] I just came back from Holland on the very thing I was wanting
Just to find some way to let you know [Bb] how I feel
You [Fm] can't say much in an evening [Db] if you know you're soon leaving
[Bb] There's not much time to talk and it may [Eb] be as well _ _
But I wanted to give you something because you know you really help me
So I've written a song with a small West [Ab] Indian band
And [Abm] though it seems some days that all my ways [Eb] are bound to lose
I tell you [Bb] right now, I'm gonna make it back [Eb] to Amsterdam _ _
[Cm] Amsterdam, _ _ [F] Amsterdam, _ _ [Ab] Amsterdam Amsterdam
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
