If it | seems like I’ve been lost in let’s remember |
If you think I’m feeling older and missing my younger days

Oh, then you | should have known me much better |
Cause my past is something that never
| A |
Still I | would not be here now if I never had the hunger |
And I’m not ashamed to say the wild boys were my friends
| D |
Cause I | never felt the desire till their music set me on fire |
| E6 | D |
And then I was | saved, | yeah |
| E6 |
That’s why I’m keeping the | faith |
Only Flagg Brothers had them with the Cuban heel
Iridescent socks with the same color shirt
And a tight pair of chinos
| D |
I | put on my shark skin jacket |
You know the kind with the velvet collar
I took a fresh pack of Luckies and a mint called Sen-Sen
My old man's Trojans and his Old Spice after shave
| D |
Combed my | hair in a pompadour |
Like the rest of the Romeos wore
| E6 | D |
A permanent | wave | yeah |
| E6 |
We were keeping the | faith |
| E | D | A |
You can | get just so | much from a | good thing |

You can | linger too | long in your | dreams |
| E | D | A |
Say | goodbye to the | oldies but | goodies |
| Bm7 |
Cause the | good old days weren’t always good |
| E7 |
And | tomorrow ain’t as bad as it seems |
A |
Learned stickball as a formal education |
Lost a lot of fights but it taught me how to lose O.K.
| D |
I | heard about sex but not enough |
| A |
I found you could dance and still look tough any | way |
I found out a man ain’t just being macho
Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food drank a lot of take-home pay
| D |
I | thought I was the Duke of Earl |
When I made it with a red-haired girl
| E6 |
We were keeping the | faith |
| E | D | A |
You can | get just so | much from a | good thing |
| E | D | A |
You can | linger too | long in your | dreams |

Now I | told you my reasons for the whole revival |
Now I’m going outside to have an
Ice cold beer in the shade

I’m going to | listen to my 45’s |
Ain’t it wonderful to be alive
When the rock 'n' roll

When the memory | stays, | yeah |

But if | you need to be | satis | fied |

I’m s | hameless baby I don’t | have a prayer |

Every time I see you sta | nding there |

I go down upon my | knees | |

And I’m | changing swore I’d | never compromise |

Aw, but you convinced me o | therwise |

But a n | ice girl wouldn’t | tell you what you should | do | |

Oh, l | isten boy, I’m sure that you think you got it a | ll under cont | rol |

When you | love someone you’re | always insec | ure |

L | isten boy, it’s good information from a m | an who’s made mist | akes |

Just a wo | rd or two that she gets from you could be the d | ifference that it m | akes |

She’s a | trusting soul, she’s p | ut her trust in | you |

Well I’m | on the Downe | aster Al | exa |
| G | D | C |
And I’m | cruising through | Block Island | Sound |
| C | G | Am |
I have | charted a | course to the | Vineyard |
| Em | D | C |
But to | night I am | Nantucket | bound |
C | D | G | C |
We took on | diesel back in | Montauk | yesterday |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
And left this | morning from the | bell in Gardiner’s | Bay |
C | D | G | C |
Like all the | locals here I’ve | had to sell my | home |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
Too proud to | leave I worked my | fingers to the | bone |
| G | D | Em |
So I could | own my Downe | aster Ale | xa |
| G | D | C |
And I | go where the | ocean is | deep |
| C | G | Am |
There are | giants out | there in the | canyons |
| G | D | C |
And a | good captain | can’t fall | asleep |
C | D | G | C |
I’ve got | bills to pay and | children who need | clothes |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
I know there’s | fish out there | but where God only | knows |
C | D | G | C |
They say these | waters aren’t | what they used to | be |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
But I’ve got | people back on | land who count on | me |
| G | D | Em |
So if you | see my Downe | aster Al | exa |
| G | D | C |
And if you | work with the | rod and the | reel |
| C | G | Am |
Tell my | wife I am | trolling | Atlantis |
| G | D | C |
And I | still have my | hands on the | wheel |
| G | D | Em |
Now I | drive my Downe | aster Al | exa |
| G | D | C |
More and | more miles from | shore every | year |
| C | G | Am |
Since they | tell me I | can’t sell no | stripers |
| G | D | C |
And there’s | no luck in | swordfishing | here |
C | D | G | C |
I was a | bayman like my | father was | before |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
Can’t make a | living as a | bayman | anymore |
C | D | G | C |
There ain’t much | future for a | man who works the | sea |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
But there ain’t no | island left for | islanders like | me |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
If | you | said | good | bye to me ton | ight |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
There | would | still | be | music left to | write |
C# | F#m |
What else could | I do |
E7 | A | A7 |
I’m so insp | ired | by you |
D | Bm | E | A |
That hasn’t | happened for the | longest | time |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
Once | I | thought | my | innocence was | gone |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
Now | I k | now | that | happiness goes | on |
C# | F#m |
That’s where you | found me |
E7 | A | A7 |
When you put your | arms a | round me |
D | Bm | E | A |
I haven’t | been there for the | longest ti | me |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
I’m | that | voice | you’re | hearing in the | hall |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
And | the | great | est | miracle of | all |
E7 | A | A7 |
And how you n | eeded | me too |
D | Bm | E | A |
That has | n’t happened for the | longest | time |
E | E7 | F#m |
Maybe | this won’t | last very long |
| G#7 |
But | you feel so right |
C#m | F#m |
Maybe I’ve been | hoping too hard |
| B7 |
But | I’ve gone this far |
| E | E7 |
And it’s | more than I | hoped for |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
Who | knows | how | much | further we’ll go | on |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
May | be I’ | ll | be s | orry when you’re | gone |
C# | F#m |
I’ll take my | chances |
E7 | A | A7 |
I forgot how n | ice r | omance is |
D | Bm | E | A |
I haven’t | been there for the | longest | time |
E | E7 | F#m |
I had | second | thoughts at the start |
C#m | F#m |
Now I know the | woman that you are |
| B7 |
You’re | wonderful so far |
| E | E7 |
And it’s | more than I | hoped for |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
I | don’t c | are | what | consequence it b | rings |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
I | have b | een | a | fool for lesser t | hings |
E7 | A | A7 |
I think you | ought to | know that |
D | Bm | E | A |
I intend to | hold you for the | longest | time |
A | Bm |
Oh oh oh | oh oh oh oh |
C#m | D | E |
Oh oh oh | oh oh | oh oh |
Bm | C#m |
She’s been living in her | uptown world |
D | E | A |
I bet she | never had a | back street guy |
Bm | C#m |
I bet her mama never | told her why |
Bm | C#m |
She’s been living in her | white bread world |
D | E | A |
As long as | anyone with | hot blood can |
Bm | C#m |
And now she’s looking for a | downtown man |
F | Dm | Gm | C7 |
And when she | knows what she | wants from her | time |
F | Dm | Gm/D# | C7 |
And when she | wakes up and | makes up her | mind |
D | Bm |
She’ll see I’m | not so tough |
Em | E |
Just because | I’m in love with an |
Bm | C#m |
You know I’ve seen her in her | uptown world |
D | E | A |
She’s getting | tired of her | high-class toys |
Bm | C#m |
And all her presents from her | uptown boys |
Bm | C#m |
You know I can’t afford to | buy her pearls |
D | E | A |
But maybe | someday when my | ship comes in |
Bm | C#m |
She’ll understand what kind of | guy I’ve been |
F | Dm | Gm | C7 |
And when she’s | walking, she’s | looking so | fine |
F | Dm | Gm/D# | C7 |
And when she’s | talking, she’ll | say that she’s | mine |
D | Bm |
She’ll say I’m | not so tough |
Em | E |
Just because | I’m in love with an |
Bm | C#m |
She’s been living in her | white bread world |
D | E | A |
As long as | anyone with | hot blood can |
Bm | C#m |
And now she’s looking for a | downtown man |

Friday night I crashed your party |
Saturday I said I’m sorry

Sunday came and trashed me out a | gain |
| E | A |
And we | all enjoyed the weekend for a | change |
| A |
I was | stranded in the combat zone |
I walked through Bedford Sty alone
| E |
Even rode my motorcycle in the | rain |
| Bm |
And you | told me not to drive |
| G |
But I | made it home alive |
| E | A |
So you | said that only proves that I’m in | sane |

You may be | right I may be | crazy |

Turn out the | lights don’t try to | save me |

You may be | wrong for all I | know |

Remember how I found you there |
Alone in your electric chair

I told you dirty jokes until you | smiled |
| Bm |
You were | lonely for a man |
| E | A |
‘Cause you | might enjoy some madness for a | while |
| A |
Now | think of all the years you tried to |
Find someone to satisfy you
| E |
I might be as crazy as you | say |

If I’m | crazy then it’s true |

That it’s | all because of you |

Janey was lovely, she was the | queen of my nights |

There in the darkness with the | radio, playing low and |

Surrounded by strangers I | thought were my friends |

I found myself further and fur | ther from my home and I |

There were oh, so many roads |

Never | worrying about paying, or even how | much I owed |

Here’s a little song I wrote |
| Bm |
You m | ight want to sing it note for note |
| D | A |
Don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy |
A |
In every life we have some trouble |
Bm |
But when you worry you make it double |
| D | A |
Don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy (don’t worry, be happy now) |
A |
Ain’t got no place to lay your head |
Bm |
Somebody came and took your bed |
| D | A |
Don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy |
A |
The landlord say your rent is late |
Bm |
He may have to litigate |
| D | A |
Don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy (look at me, I’m happy) |
A |
Ain’t got no cash, ain’t got no style |
Bm |
Ain’t got no gal to make you smile |
| D | A |
But don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy |
| A |
‘Cause w | hen you worry your face will frown |
| Bm |
And t | hat will bring everybody down |
| D | A |
So don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy (don’t worry, be happy now) |
| A | A |
Don’ | t worry, b | e happy now |
Don't worry, don't worry, don't do it
Be happy, put a smile on your face
Don't bring everybody down
Don't worry, it will soon pass whatever it is

I got the call today that I | didn’t wanna hear |
| D |
But I | knew that it would come |
A | E |
Old true friend of ours was | talking on the phone |
| D |
She said you | found someone |
| E |
And I | thought of all the bad luck |
And the struggles we went through
| D |
And how | I lost me and you lost you |
E |
What are these voices outside love’s open door |
| D |
Make us | throw off our contentment |
| E |
And | beg for something more? |
A | Bm7 | A/C# |
But I’m learning to | live without you | now |
| D |
But I | miss you sometimes |
| A/E | F#m |
And the | more I know, the | less I understand |
| D | Esus4 | E |
All the | things I thought I knew I’m | learning aga | in |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But my | will gets weak |
D |
And my thoughts seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |

Even if, even if | you don’t | love me any | more |
A | A | Asus2 | A | Asus2 | Asus4 |

All these | times are so uncertain |
| E |
There’s a | yearning undefined |
| D |
And | people filled with rage |
| A |
We all | need a little tenderness |
E | D |
How can love survive in | such a graceless age? |
| E |
Ah the | trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness |
| D | D |
They’re the | very things we | kill, I guess |
| E |
Our | pride and competition |
Can not fill these empty arms
| D |
And the | work I put between us |
| Esus4 | E |
You know it | doesn’t keep me | warm |
A | Bm7 | A/C# |
I’m learning to | live without you | now |
| A/E | F#m |
And the | more I know, the | less I understand |
| D |
All the | things I thought I’d figured out |
| Esus4 | E |
I | have to learn | again |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But | everything changes |
D |
And my friends seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 | E | A |
Even if, even if, | you don’t | love me any | more |
| G | D/F# |
There are | people in your life, | who’ve come and gone |
| Em | D/F# |
They | let you down, you know they | hurt your pride |
G | D/F# |
You better put it all behind you baby, ‘cause | life goes on |
| E |
You keep | carrying that anger, it will eat you up inside, baby |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But my | will gets weak |
D |
And my thoughts seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 |
Even if, even if | you don’t love me |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
Because the | flesh will get weak |
D |
And the ashes will scatter |
| A/E |
So I’m thinkin’ about | forgiveness |

Even if, even if | you don’t love me any | more |

Don’t look back, you could never look back

Everybody’s l | ooking for s | omething |

B | ack and forth, I sway with the wind |
Resolution slips away again
Right through my fingers, back into my heart
Where it's out of reach and it's in the dark

Sometimes I think I’m blind |
Or I may be just paralyzed

Because the p | lot thickens every day |
And the pieces of my puzzle keep crumblin’ away
But I know, there's a picture beneath

Somebody put me tog | ether |
A |
Layin’ face down on the ground |
My fingers in my ears to block the sound
My eyes shut tight to avoid the sight
| A | A |
Anticipa | ting the end, losing the wi | ll to fight |
D |
Droplets of “yes” and “no” |
In an ocean of “maybe”
| A |
From the b | ottom, it looks like a steep incline |
From the top, another downhill slope of mine
But I know, the equilibrium's there

Put his ear to the | wall, and like a distant | scream |

He heard one guitar, | just blew him away | |

Like a trip through the past, | that day in the rain | |
