The wind is in from Africa, last night I couldn't sleepA E

Oh, you know it sure is hard to leave here, Carey, but it's really not my home D A E

My fingernails are filthy, I got beach tar on my feet A E

And I miss my clean white linen and my fancy French cologne D A E

Chorus

Oh, Carey, get out your cane A

And I'll put on some silver D E

Oh you're a mean old daddy, but I like you D E A

Come on down to the Mermaid Cafe and I will buy you a bottle of wine And well laugh and toast to nothing and smash our empty glasses down Lets have a round for these freaks and these soldiers, a round for these friends of mine Let's have another round for the bright red devil who keeps me in this tourist town Chorus Maybe I'll go to Amsterdam or maybe I'll go to Rome And rent me a grand piano and put some flowers round my room But lets not talk about fare-thee-wells nowthe night is a starry dome And they're playin that scratchy rock and roll beneath the Matalla moon Chorus The wind is in from Africa last night I couldnt sleep Oh, you know it sure is hard to leave here but, it's really not my home Maybe it's been too long a time since I was scramblin down in the street Now they got me used to that clean white linen and that fancy French cologne Oh, Carey, get out your cane I'll put on my finest silver Well go to the Mermaid Cafe Have fun tonight I said, oh, you're a mean old daddy, but you're out of sight

The BoxerSimon & Garfunkel

I am just a poor boy though my story's seldom told C C C Am

I have squandered my resistance G G

For a pocket full of mumbles such are promises G7 G7 C C

All lies and jests still a man hears what he wants to hear Am G F

And disregards the rest F C G F C C

When I left my home and my family, I was no more than a boy C C C Am

In the company of strangers G G

In the quiet of the railway station running scared G7 G7 C C

Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters where the ragged people go Am G F F C

Looking for the places only they would know G F C C

Chorus

Lie la lie, Lie la lie la lie la lie, Lie la lie, Lie la lie la la la la, lie la la la la lie. Am Am Em Em Am Am G F C

Asking only workman's wages I come looking for a job C C C Am

But I get no offers G G

Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue G7 G7 C C

I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome Am G F F

I took some comfort there, Lie lie lie lie la C G F C C

Then I'm laying out my winter clothes and wishing I was gone C C C Am

Going home where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me G G G7 G7 C

Leading me, going home C Em Am Am G F C C

In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade C C C Am

And he carries a reminder of ev'ry glove that laid him down G G G7 G7

Or cut him till he cried out in his anger and his shame C C Am

I am leaving, I am leaving but the fighter still remains mmmmm mmmm G F F C G F C C

And I wish I wore a ring so I could hock it. I'd like to hock it. C G D D Em Em Em Em

A young girl in a parking lot was preaching to a crowd,Em Em D D

There is a young cowboy he lives on the range. D A G F#m F#m

His horse and his cattle are his only companion. Bm G D F#m F#m

He works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyon. Bm G D F#m

Waiting for summer, his pastures to change. G D A Em7 Em7 A A

And as the moon rises he sits by his fire. G G A7sus4 D

Thinkin' about women and glasses of beer.Bm G D A

With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to go. G D A Em7 Em7 A A

There's a song that they sing when they take to the highway. G G A7sus4 D

A song that they sing when they take to the sea. Bm G D A

A song that they sing of they're home in the sky. G G A7sus4 D

Brown hair zig-zag around her face and a look of half surprise Like a fox caught in the headlights, there was animal in her eyes She said,"Young man, Oh can't you see I'm not the factory kind If you don't take me out of here I'll surely lose my mind." Chorus


So fine that I might crush her where she lay Bm A G A G G

So fine a breath of wind might blow her away Bm A G A G G





We was camping down the Gower one time, the work was pretty good She thought we shouldn't wait for the frost And I thought maybe we should We were drinking more in those days and tempers reached a pitch And like a fool I let her run With the rambling itch A7 G D/F# Em A7sus4 Bm G G

Oh, the last I heard she's sleeping rough back on the Darby beat White Horse in her hip pocket And a wolfhound at her feet And they say she even married once, a man named Romany Brown But even a gypsy caravan was too much settling down And they say her flower is faded now, hard weather and hard booze But maybe that's just the price you pay for the chains you refuse Chorus Oh, she was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing And I miss her more than ever words could say If I could just taste all of her wildness now If I could hold her in my arms today Well I wouldn't want her any other way

With your chrome heart shinin' in the sun, D Dmaj9 G D Dsus2

Long may you run. Bm A7 D G Bb11 D Dsus4 D

Well it was back in Blind River in nineteen sixty two When I last saw you alive. But we missed that shift on the long decline, Long may you run. Maybe the Beach Boys have got you now With those waves singin' Caroline. Rollin' down that empty ocean road, Gettin' to the surf on time.
