Oh, [D] you know it sure is hard [Em] to leave here, Carrie, [G] but it's really not my home.
[C] Maybe it's [D] been too long, a time since [G] I was scrambling in the street.
[C] Now they've got me used to that clean white linen [G] and that fancy French cologne.
[C] Oh, Carrie, get out your game.
I'll [D] put on my finest silver.
Oh, you're a [G] mean old daddy, [C] but I like you fine.
Come on down to the [D] mermaid cafe and [G] I will buy you a bottle of wine.
[C] And we'll laugh and toast to nothing [G] and smash our empty glasses down.
[C] Let's have a round for these [G] freaks and these soldiers.
A [D] round for these friends of mine.
Let's have [Cm] another round for Brad Pitt, dear, for who keeps [G] me in this tourist town.
[C] Carrie, get out your game.
[Bb] I'll put on my finest [G] silver.
[A] Oh, you're a mean [G] old daddy, [C] but I like [F]
you fine.
Told you it was a [C] while I didn't play this.
Maybe I'll [G] go to Amsterdam.
Now, maybe I'll go to Rome.
And I'll rip your grand piano and put some flowers round my room.
[C] But let's not talk [G]
about fairly wells now.
The night is a starry dawn.
[C] And they're playing that scratchy rock and roll [G] beneath the mantle of Rome.
[C] Come on, Carrie, get out your game.
[D] I'll put on my finest silver.
[A] Oh, you're a mean [G] old daddy, [C] but I like you.
Yes, I do.
I like you fine.

[C] Come on, Carrie, get out your game.
I'll put [G] on my finest silver.
We'll [A] go to the [G] Mermaid Cafe, have a fun [C] tonight.
[Dm] Oh, you're a [G] mean old daddy, but you're [C] out of sight.
