My Lovely Lady
By: Jimmy Buffett
1973

  C             G 
  When I pay my bills
        F                     C
  Gonna leave these Tennessee hills
Am
  Take my lady to the sea
         C                  G
  That's where we both come from
         F               C
  That's where we both belong
Am                          G  
  Think I'll go back to the Keys

Chorus:
            F                                    C
     'Cause I don't want the fame that brings confusion
           F           G             Am
     Where people recognize you on a plane
     F                              C     
     All I want's the quiet and the comforts
           D              G           C
     That livin' with my lovely lady brings


Somehow we survived the double talk and jive
Things are looking better all the time
I owe her all I can 'cause she made me understand
The simple way that we should live our lives

Chorus:
     And I don't want the fame that brings confusion
     Where people recognize you on a plane
     All I want's the quiet and the comforts
     That livin' with my lovely lady brings

Let me tell you now she can eat her own weight up in crab meat
And there's plenty of that down there by the sea
Well we're sailin' in those warm December breezes
Sendin' picture postcards back to Tennessee

Chorus:
     Yes and I don't want the fame that brings confusion
     Where people recognize you on a plane
     All I want's the quiet and the comforts
     That livin' with my lovely lady brings
     Yeah that livin' with my lovely lady brings

Enjoy!
