_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ I would [G] have _ _ [D] played you if you wanted me.
_ But remember one thing, _ lose your _ [G] head. _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] And [D] I'm sparing you from the pain.
_ So I got out _ _ of _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ the place you could [C] hide away.
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [A] [D] The big capacity didn't fit in.
_ The French police wouldn't give me [C] no _ _
[G] peace.
_ _ [D] They claimed I was [Dm] a [D] nasty person.
_ _ Down along the left-hand mountain, my
[C] _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ was knocked down [D] by a human stampede.
_ _ _ Before inciting the people, [C] I
_ [G] _ _ _
_ [Bm] When all I wanted was [D] a couple, _ _ I [Bm] was accused. _ _ _
[D] I _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ moved on _ _ _ down in Rome.
_ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ I [D] was supposed to keep a young man alive.
_ _ My body stunk, but I _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ had [Bm] time.
I [D] was not out of luck.
_ _ _ Getting desperate, indeed I was.
_ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [Bm] Looking like [D] a tourist attraction.
_ _ Oh my dear, I better get out [C] of [G] here.
_ Don't _
_ _ _ _ [D] give no second shot.
I wasn't [G] ready for this.
No, [D] no.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ I moved right out here.
_ _ _ Listen.
On the Peking Ferry, I was [C] feeling merry.
[G] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ Sailing on my way back here.
_ I fell in love with a sweetheart [G] _ lady. _
_ _ _ By [D] the light of an eastern moon.
_ She sang a lullaby, used a [C] pill.
[G] _ _ _
_ _ She claimed [D] I was a nasty person.
She took me out on deck.
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
Oh, I feel.
_ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[D] _ Wait a minute. _ _ _
I [B] [C] firmly [D] believe that [G] I
_ _ _ _ _ didn't [D]
need anyone but me.
_ I sincerely thought I was so [G] complete. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Look how [D] wrong you can be.
_ _ The women of _ that [G] time, I assume.
_ _ _ They wouldn't give [Bm] you the [D] time of _ day.
But the split-eyed lady knocked me off my [G] feet.
_ _ _ _ _ God, I _
_ [D] found her.
_ And if there was one thing I could say to [G] you. _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] To have you on the [D] way down the road.
I couldn't quote you no Dickens.
[G] Shaggy old _ Keats. _
_ _ Cookies all [D] been said before.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ You didn't [D] have to call me _ anyway.
_ Sorry, now. _ _
