Libby - From Another Passenger - 1976

F                 
If all our flights are grounded
Em7                    A7
Libby, we'll go to Paris
      Bb
And dance along the boulevards
          Am7             D7
And have no one to embarrass
GA
Puttin' on the Ritz in style
          F#m7        B7
With an Arab and an heiress
E             E7    A
Libby, we'll fly anyway
F#m   E               Am7
And leave behind our blues
D                  E
Half sung melodies
        Am7           D
We'll trade them all in
         G 
For a Paris breeze
              C   
Libby, we'll fly

F  G

C
See how dark the circles grow
       Bm7                E7
In a town that has no light
     A            
So many eyes just staring out
 F#m7                B7
Into the bloodshot night

      E        E7             A
And Libby, I hate to see you cry
    F#m
And I
           E               Am7
Want to share it all with you
             D                  E
And if it brings us to our knees
        Am7         D        G
We'll trade it all in for a Paris breeze
              C 
Libby, we'll fly 

F                   
They say it don't come easy
          Em7
And they say that love is blind
     Bb
If you're afraid to be close
       Am7             D7
Then love is hard to find
             G
And if you spend too much time winning love
         F#m7          B7
There's no time to be kind
     E           E7
And Libby, I'm guilty of your crimes

F#m         E        Am7
I'm just another passenger
D                     E
Travelling on these crazy high seas
Am7          D
Very likely be the same
       G 
In a Paris breeze
          C
Libby, we'll fly away

F  G


F                 
If all our flights are grounded
Dm                    G7
Libby, we'll go to Paris
      C              
And wish we were back home again
       Bm7
Or sailing on the ocean
          A
Just a window and a drink
             F#m7       B7
To set our dreams in motion
E                      E7 A   F#m
But Libby, we'll fly anyway, hey
      E          Am7
And leave our blues
D           E
Half sung melodies
Am7            D          G
Trade them all in for a Paris breeze
              C           E   F   G
Libby, we'll fly............
