1. I took off for a weekend last month

                 G                                   C

    just to try and recall the whole year,

     C                             F

    all of the faces and all of the places

       G                                             C

    wonderin' where they all disappeared.

  Am                             Em

    I didn't ponder the question too long,

                F                                      G

    I was hungry and went out for a bite,

            F                            C

    ran into a chum with a bottle of rum,

                    G                             C

    and we wound up drinkin' all night.

 

                    F                               C

It's those changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes,

  G                                      C

nothing remains quite the same,

         F                                C

with all of our running and all of our cunning

     G                                         F           C

if we couldn't laugh we would all go insane.

 

        C                                  F

2. Reading departure signs in some big airport

          G                                          C

    reminds me of the places I've been,

      C                                         F

    visions of good times that brought so much pleasure

                  G                                C

    makes me want to go back again.

           Am                         Em

    If it suddenly ended tomorrow,

                  F                                 G

    I could somehow adjust to the fall,

        F                                        C

    good times and riches and son of a bitches

             G                                   C

    I've seen more than I can recall.

 

                F                               C

These changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes

  G                                       C

nothing remains quite the same,

               F                               C

through all of the islands and all of the highlands,

     G                                         F           C

if we couldn't laugh we would all go insane.

3. I think about Paris when I'm high on red wine,

         G                                  C

    I wish I could jump on a plane.

      C                                  F

    So many nights I just dream of the ocean,

                 G                           C

    God, I wish I was sailin' again.

            Am                              Em

    Oh, yesterday's over my shoulder,

         F                                    G

    so I can't look back for too long,

                         F                                  C

    there's just too much to see waiting in front of me,

                 G                                    C

    and I know that I just can't go wrong.

 

                      F                                C

With these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes

   G                                      C

nothing remains quite the same,

         F                                C

with all of our running and all of my cunning,

   G                                   F               C

if I couldn't laugh, I just would go insane.

 

         G                                         F              C

+  If we couldn't laugh, we just would go insane.

         G                                     F      G       F

    If we weren't all crazy we would go in sane.
