Here it comes, another Bblonely day Fplaying the game
DmI'll sail Amaway on a Cmvoyage of no return to Gmsee
If Bbmeternal life is meant to FbeAm  
And if I Gmfind the key to the Bbmeternal dreamC  
The painted ladies of the Bbavalon Fplay in the sun
DmTake to the Amroad, to the nCmorth there lies the chills of coGmld
To the Bbmsouth there lies the tales FuntoldAm  
But in Gmbetween there lies the place to Bbmclose your eyes
And I will FstaFaugaaaaaDmaaaCaaBbay,
I'll not be Fback, eldoGmradoBbm  
I will be FfrFaugeeeeeDmeeeCeeBbee
of the Fworld, eldGmoradoBbm  C  
Say goodbye, the city's Bbheroes sing, Fbird on the wing
DmFeel, feel so Amfree through the Cmlife upon the rooftop Gmhaze
All the Bbmcheating and the broken FdaysAm  
So through it Gmall I see there's nothing Bbmleft for me
And I will FstFaugaaaaaDmaaaCaaBbaay,
I'll not be Fback, eldoGmradoBbm  
I will be FfrFaugeeeeeDmeeeCeeBbee
of the Fworld, eldGmoradoBbm  C  
Sitting here on top of Bbeverywhere, Fwhat do I care
DmDays never Amend, I know the Cmvoyage's end will soon be Gmhere
No Bbmeternal life is here for FmeAm  
And now I Gmfound the key to the Bbmeternal dream
And I will FstaFaugaaaaaDmaaaCaaBbay,
I'll not be Fback, eldoGmradoBbm  
I will be FfrFaugeeeeeDmeeeCeeBbee
of the Fworld, eldGmoradoBbm  
and I will FstaFaugaaaaaDmaaaCaaBbay,
I'll Fnot be back, Ebeldorado
