Joni Mitchell - Carey - Live 1974 chords
Start Jamming...
you're [C#] talking to me
[G#] [F#] [C#]
I'm dancing from Africa
[G#] last night I couldn't sleep
[F#] oh you know it's surely a [C#] sight to see
but it's really [G#] not my home
[C#]
I've been good, hells up filthy
[G#] I've got beach tar on my feet
[F#] and I miss my [C#] team up in
and my [G#] fancy French Cologne
yeah, Gary, get [C#] out your [D#] game
[C#] I'll put on my [Cm] finest [F#] silver
boy you're [C#] a mean old daddy
but I like you
come [F#] [C#m] on [C#] down to the midnight cafe
with [G#] me and I'll buy you a bottle of wine
[F#] and we'll laugh [C#] close to nothing
and [G#] smash our empty glasses down
[A#m] let's have [C#] a round for these creeps
and these [G#] soldiers
round for these friends of mine
[F#] let's have a round [C#] for the devil
who [G#] keeps me in this tourist town
Gary, get [C#] out your game
I'll put on my finest [G#] silver
[F#] boy you're a mean old [C#] daddy
but I like you
I like mean old [F#] daddy sometimes
[C#] [D#m] [C#] [F#]
[C#] [D#m] [C#] [F#]
[Fm] [F#]
[C#] [D#m] [C#]
[G#] [F#] [C#]
[G#] [D#m] [C#] [E]
[C#] maybe I'll go dance today
[G#] maybe I'll go to [G] Rome
[F#] and rent me a [C#] grand piano
put some [G#] flowers round my room
[A#m] but let's not [C#] talk about
Fairview Wells [G#] now
and that is a starry dome
[F#] and they're playing on [C#] scratchy rock
and I'll be [G#] roving in the mountain of moon
[G#m] Gary, get [A#m] out your [G#] game
[C#m] I'll put on my [G#] finest silver
[F#] boy you're a [C#] mean old [G#] daddy
but [C#] I like you
[F#] the [C#m]
[C#] wind is in from Africa
[G#] the sea is full of [F#] sheep
you know it sure is [C#] sunny
but it's [G#] really not fair
[G#m]
[F#] and it's been [C#] too long a time
since [G#] I was scrambling down in the [Gm] street
and [F#] they got me used to not [C#] leaving
and that [G#] fancy French cologne
Gary, get out [C#] your game
I'll put on my finest silver
[F#] boy you're a [C#] mean old daddy
but I like you
[F#] I [C#] [D#m] [C#]
[F#] [C#] [D#m] [C#] like, I like, I like
[F#] [C#] [D#m] [A#m] [F#] [C#] [F#] [C#]
