Still Crazy After All These Years  by Paul Simon
Tabbed by Trevor Berns

This is played in the key of D.
See the video of Paul Simon playing this song on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjtOa8d_BHU

I put the bridge in a key that I like to sing with which is
more in keeping with the recoded key.
I left out the solo part and put in some transition chords.

Much thanks to BaddGuitar for his video link and tab in the recorded key.

              G      D        Am7        G        C9
I?m not the kind of man who tends to socialize

I seem to lean on old familiar ways
Bm     Am7                 D                G13no5*       Ab half dim*
And I aint no fool for love songs that whisper in my ears

Still crazy after all these years   Oh...
      A*                     D9
Still crazy after all these years

Now I sit by my window and I watch the cars
I fear I?ll do some damage one fine day
But I would not be convicted by a jury of my peers
Still crazy after all these years,  Oh
