Lyrics
Capo on 3rd fret..
Intro: [F] walk down to [dm] [g] [c] walk down to [am] [dm] [g] [c]
[C]in spite of you, you [f]like yourself An' [g]that's alright with [c]me [C]it gets so lonesome [f]fillin' space An' [g]someone must [c]believe
[C]erase them golden [f]memories An' [g]blow the candle [c]out [C]let's get on off [f]away somewhere An' [g]see what we're [c]about
Chorus: (play intro) Lay down your [f] weary [a min7] tune [g] again And [c] rest your [c/b] head on [a min] me Your [dm]phone call says you're sorry An' the [g]grapevine says you're [c]free
[C]your drugstore dady's [f]flesh an' blood Like [g]marilyn mon[c]roe [C]an' out there on the [f]runway now The [g]king's all set to [c]go
[C]they'll cover up the [f]window soon 'Cause [g]he'll be rollin' [c]in He's [c]elvis presley, [f]honey chile An' [g]i can't cop his [c]grin
Chorus
[C]the missionary [f]paid my way An' [g]put me off to [c]sleep [C]i woke up early [f]yesterday An' [g]found a place to [c]eat
[C]i got it down an' [f]felt relieved An' [g]jane went off to [c]work [C]it's wooden soldier's [f]christmas time An' [g]jane she is a [c]clerk
Chorus
[C]in spite of you, you [f]like yourself An' [g]i admire you [c]much [C]I'm out to get us [f]back in sync 'Cause we've been [g]so out of [c]touch
[C]just meet me next to [f]noah's ark An' [g]let's get out of [c]town [C]there's got to be [f]someplace somewhere These [g]rain clouds haven't [c]found
Chorus
