Start Jamming...
[C] [F#]
[C#] [G#] Phone's are fucked, [D#] no [F#] one knows where we are, it's a long time [D#] since I drank champagne.
[G#]
[A#m] The [Fm] ocean's blue, [F#] as blue as your [C#] eyes.
I'm gonna take it with me [G#] when I [Fm] go.
[C#]
[G#] Oh, [C#] long since gone.
[F#] Now, way back when, we lived in Coney [A#m] Island.
[C#] [G#]
[A#m] Ain't [Fm] no good [F#] thing ever [C#] dies.
I'm gonna take [G#] it with [C#] me [G#] when
[C#]
[A#m] Far, far [C#] away.
Train whistle blows, [Fm] wherever [A#m] you're [C#] going, [D#] wherever you've been.
[C#] [G#]
Waving [A#m] goodbye, [C#] [F#]
at the end [C#] of the day.
[Fm] You're up [A#m] and you're [C#] over, [G] and you're far away.
[C#] [G#]
[C#] Always for [G#] you, [F#] forever yours.
It felt just [D#] like the old [G#] days.
[A#m] Fell [Fm] asleep on [F#]
Bueller's [C#] porch.
I'm gonna [G#] take it with me when I go.
[C#]
Oh, broken down.
By [F#] the side of the road, I was never [A#m] more alive or [C#] alone.
[G#]
[A#m] I've worn [Fm] the faces [F#] off all the [C#] cards.
I'm gonna take [G#] it with me when I go.
Children [A#m] are [C#] playing, [F#] at the end of the [C#] day.
[G#m] [A#m] Strangers are
[C#] singing, on [F] our [C#] [G#] lawn.
[F#] There's got to [A#m] be [C#] more, [G] than flesh [C#] and bone.
[A#m] All that you've [C#] loved, is all you own.
[G#] Your land, [F#] and in that town, there's a house, and in that house, there's a [A#m] woman.
[C#] [G#]
[A#m] And in [Fm] that woman, there's [F#] a heart [C#] I love.
I'm gonna take it with [G#] me when I go.
I'm gonna take it [C#] with me [G#] when I [C#] go.
