When my neurons conspire to direct my thoughts

Away from divorce and competitive sports
E                                           B
Back to the place where all rivers run to the sea
A                E
Then I......I shall be free
A                E
Yes I.......I shall be free

On a see-saw in a strange land

The jackdaw sat on the cardinals hand

And the fiddlers played

And the planners plan what would be

On a back seat in a court room

Until the police came down with a new broom

And swept them clean

On the open road in a bar room

A pick up band plays a new tune
C
When the coloured girls sing

I feel my heart boom
 

G        G7       G        G7

When a new song hits the right note

When an insight strikes the mote

From my own eye

I'll feel the heat of the flickering flame

My old friend Philippe is waiting for me

Quelle sera, sera

What ever will be will be

When a friend dies and the tears rise

From that deep well that never runs dry

And the women break their bracelets

And the men take their whisky outside

The place where the dark side meets the angel in me???..

To focus instead on a love that is precious to me
