              E7 (020130@1)         A (x02220@1)That bothered him so

	He was impressive,young and agressive
         D (xx0232@1)                    E7 (020130@1)Savin' the world on his own
         D (xx0232@1)                  A (x02220@1)Warm summer breezes,French wine and cheeses
         D (xx0232@1)                E7 (020130@1)Put his ambition at bay
             A (x02220@1)The summers and winters scattered like splinters
             D (xx0232@1)          E7 (020130@1)           A (x02220@1)And four or five years slipped away

         D (xx0232@1)                   A (x02220@1)All of the answers and all of the questions
            D (xx0232@1)                     E7 (020130@1)He locked in his attic one day
                   A (x02220@1)'Cause he liked the quiet clean country livin'
              D (xx0232@1)        E7 (020130@1)           A (x02220@1)And twenty more years slipped away

         A (x02220@1)                                         D (xx0232@1)War took his baby,Bombs killed his lady and left him
             E7 (020130@1)      A (x02220@1)With only one eye

	His body was battered,his whole world was shattered
         D (xx0232@1)                      E7 (020130@1)All he could do was just cry
                   D (xx0232@1)              A (x02220@1)While the tears were fallin' he was recallin'
            D (xx0232@1)                 E7 (020130@1)Answers that he never found
               A (x02220@1)So he hopped in afreighter,skidded (x02210@1)the ocean
             D (xx0232@1)          E7 (020130@1)       A (x02220@1)And left England without asound (x02210@1)

              E7 (020130@1)            A (x02220@1)His Green label each day

	Writing his memoirs,losin' his hearin'
                D (xx0232@1)                         E7 (020130@1)But he don't care what most people say
               D (xx0232@1)                 A (x02220@1)After eighty-six years of perpetual motion
               D (xx0232@1)                       E7 (020130@1)If he likes you he'll smile and say
                A (x02220@1)"Jimmy,some of it's magic,probably tragic,
               D (xx0232@1)        E7 (020130@1)         A (x02220@1)But i had agood (x02210@1)life all the way"
