           G            D
While they fish out the fisheries
  Am7         G
I wish on the wisheries
~     Em        Dsus2 D
Mixed up in the mys---teries
C     D      C     D
Every night, every night


        G               D
I pedal hope, now, from port to port
        Am7         G
I never stay at the last resort
    ~   Em                Dsus2 D
I'm not tall, but I never come  up short
  C      D      C       D
I always pay, I pay and pay


   G                 D
I got arrested and I got away
      Am7          G
I met Clint and he made my day
       ~   Em        Dsus2 D
Tarred and feathered in La Brea
C      D    C      D
What a pit, what a pit


  G                   D
I formed my own government
       Am7               G
I cast pearls before the parliament
    ~    Em            Dsus2 D
Got some girls for the ex----president
C       D     C      D
No, not him, another one


        G                D
Though I appear none too glamorous
       Am7        G
I have often been amorous
       ~ Em    Dsus2 D
Though I am an ignor-animous
C    D        C          D
Ignoranimous, that's the word


 G              D
My chances were ludicrous
        Am7          G         ~ Em
She was graceful and luminous
               Dsus2 D
My heart sank, bi----tuminous
C     D      C  D
But I asked, anyway


          G           D
Through a window, she kissed my face
          Am7          G
Pushed me down, put me in my place
           ~     Em             Dsus2   D
The French would call that the 'coup de grace'
C          D      C      D
No, that's not my native tongue


INSTRUMENTAL: G  D  Am7  G  ~ Em  Dsus2 D  C D  C D

Found a raincoat in a London fog

Got a kitten from a catalogue
    ~ Em   Dsus2  D
Got a demo from a demagogue
  C         D        C           D
I played it loud, it pleased the crowd


      G                 D
While they fish out the fisheries
           Am7             G
I miss the missing and the mysteries
    ~     Em             Dsus2  D
I broke a dish signed by Cyd Charisse
C      D      C      D
Yea, I pay, I always pay
  C       G
I pay and pay
