Chords for Joni Mitchell - Carey (Official Audio)

[B] [Fm] [G#] [C#] .
The wind is in from Africa, [G#] last night I couldn't sleep.
[F#] Oh you know it sure [C#] is hard to leave you [G#] Carrie, but it's really not my home.
[C#] My fingernails are filthy, [G#] I've got beach tar on my feet.
And [F#] I miss my [C#] clean white linen and my fancy French cologne.
[G#] Oh Carrie get [C#] out your cape, and I'll put [G#] on some silk.
[F#m] Oh you're a [C#] mean old daddy but I like you.
Come on down to the Mermaid Cafe [G#] and I will buy you a bottle of wine.
[F#] And we'll laugh [C#] and toast to nothing and [G#] smash our empty glasses down.
[C#] Let's have a round for these streets and these [G#] soldiers, a round for these friends of mine.
[F#] Let's have another round [C#] for the devil [G#] who keeps me in this tourist town.
Come on Carrie [C#] get out your cape, and I'll put [G#] on some silk.
[F#] Oh [C#] you're a mean [G#] old daddy but [C#] I like you, I like you, I like you, I like you .
Maybe I'll go to Amsterdam [G#] or maybe I'll go to Rome.
[F#] And rent me [C#] a piano and put [G#] some flowers round my room.
[C#] But let's not talk about Feathery Wells [G#] now, the night is a starry dawn.
[F#] And they're playing that [C#] scratchy rock and roll [G#] beneath the Macalum moon.
Come on Carrie get [C#] out your cape, and I'll put [G#] on some [F#] silk.
Oh [C#] you're a mean old daddy but I like you.
The wind is from Africa, [G#] last night I couldn't sleep.
[F#] Oh you know it sure is [C#] hard to leave you but it's [G#] really not my home.
[C#] Maybe it's been too long a time [G#] since I was scrambling down in the street.
[F#m] And they got me [C#] used to that clean white linen and that [G#] fancy French [C#] cologne.
[G#] Oh Carrie get [C#] out your cape, and I'll put [G#] on my finest silk.
[F#] [C#] Go to the Mermaid Cafe have fun tonight.
[F#] I said oh you're [C#] a mean old [G#] daddy but [C#] you're out of sight .
