Intro: C/G Fmaj7
C/G
Well the phone's off the hook
Fmaj7
No one knows where we are
C/G G
It's a long time since I drank Champaign
Am G Fmaj7 C/G
The ocean is blue as blue as your eyes
C/G G C/G
I'm gonna take it with me when I go
C/G
Now long, long ago
Fmaj7
And way back when
C/G G
We lived in Coney Island
Am G Fmaj7 C/G
Ain't no good thing ever dies
C/G G C/G
I'm gonna take it with me when I go
Am Fmaj7
Far, far away
C/G G
A train whistle blows
Am
Wherever you're going
Fmaj7 G
Wherever you've been
Am Fmaj7
Waving goodbye
C/G G
At the end of the day
Am
You're up and you're over
Fmaj7 G
And you're far away
C/G
Always for you
Fmaj7
And forever yours
C/G G
It felt just like the old days
Am G Fmaj7 C/G
We fell asleep on Beulah's porch
C/G G C/G
I'm gonna take it with me when I go
C/G
All broken down
Fmaj7
On the side of the road
C/G G
I was never more alive or alone
Am G Fmaj7 C/G
I've worn the faces off all the cards
C/G G C/G
I'm gonna take it with me when I go
Am Fmaj7
Children are playing
C/G G
At the end of the day
Am
Strangers are singing
Fmaj7 G
On our lawn
Am Fmaj7
It's got to be more
C/G G
Than flesh and bone
Am
All that you've loved
Fmaj7 G
Is all you own
C/G
In a land there's a town
Fmaj7
And in that town there's a house
C/G G
And in that house there's a woman
Am G Fmaj7 C/G
And in that woman there's a heart I love
C/G G Am Fmaj7
I'm gonna take it with me when I go
C/G G C/G
I'm gonna take it with me when I go
