      A           D7                 A
Goin' down Geneva; give me a helping hand.

I'm goin' down Geneva; give me a helping hand.
         E7          D7                  A    E7
It's not easy, baby, living on the exile plan.
Verse 2:
A                   D7                      A
 Down on the bottom; down to my new pair of shoes.
D7                                          A
 Down on the bottom; down to my new pair of shoes.
    E7                   D7                      A    E7
I'm down by the lakeside, thinking 'bout my baby blue.

             A                        D7                      A
Last night I played a gig in Salzburg, outside in the pouring rain.
             D7                                               A
Last night I played a gig in Salzburg, outside in the pouring rain.
          E7                D7                            A    E7
Flew from there to Montreux, and my heart was filled with pain.
Verse 4:
     A             D7                      A
Look out my window; back at the way things are.
     D7                                         A
Look out my window pane; back at the way things are.
            E7  D7                            A    E7
Just wonder how, how did things ever get this far?
Verse 5:
      A                         D7                      A
Vince Taylor, used to live here; nobody's ever heard of him.
      D7                                      A
Vince Taylor used to live here; nobody's ever heard of him.
     E7         D7                  A  E7
Just who he was, just where he fits in.
Verse 6:
             A           D7                  A
He was goin' down Geneva; give him a helping hand.
             D7                              A
He was goin' down Geneva; give him a helping hand.
