G C G D F C
ASitting Din Mangrove Valley chasing light beams, everything wanders from baby to Z
G   C   G   D   F   C[C][B] [A] G  
Baby, baby, pretty young on Tuesday, old like a rum drinkin' de-mon at tea
AmBaby, baby, EmTell me what's the matter
AmWhy, why, tell me what&#8Em217;s your why now
BmTell me why Amwill you never come home
C[C] [B] [A] G  
Tell me what’s your reason if you’ve got a good one
DEverywhere I Fgo, the Cpeople all Ebknow
AEveryone&#8D217;s doin&G#8217; that rag (2X)
GTake my Cline and go Gfishing for a DTuesFday,
CMaybe take my supper, eat it Adown by the Dsea
GGave my Cbaby twenty, Gforty good DreaFsons,
C[C][B] [A] G  
Couldn’t find any better ones in the morning at three
AmRain gonna come, Embut the rain gonna go, you know
AmSteppin’ off sharply froEmm the rank and file
BmAwful cold and Amdark like a dungeon
C[C] [B] [A] G  
Maybe get a little bit dark ‘fore the day
DHipsters, Ftripsters, Creal cool Ebchicksters,
C#Everyone&#8F#217;s doin&B#8217; that rag
F#Hipsters, Atripsters, Ereal cool Gchicksters,
C#Everyone&#8F#217;s doin&B#8217; that rag
You Bneedn’t gilEd the lily, Boffer jewels tF#o tAhe sunset,
ENo one is watching or C#standing in your F#shoes
BWash your lonely Efeet in the Briver in the F#morAning,
E[E] [D#] [C#]B  
Everything promised is delivered to you
C#mDon’t neglect to piG#mck up what your share is
C#mAll the winter birds are G#mwingin’ home now
D#mHey, love, C#mgo and look around you
E[E] [D#] [C#] B  
Nothing out there you haven’t seen be fore now
F#Wade in the Awater, you&#82E17;ll nevGer get wet
If you C#keep on F#doin’ Bthat rag (2X)
BOne-eyed Ejacks and the Bdeuces are F#wild,
AAnd the Eaces are crawling up and C#down your F#sleeves
BCome back Ehere Bbaby F#LouAise,

And tell me the name of the game that you play
Is it all fall D#mdown, is it all go G#munder?
