Intro: [C/G] [Fmaj7]
Well the [C/G]phone's off the hook
No one [Fmaj7]knows where we are
It's a long time since I [C/G]drank Cham[G]paign
The [Am]ocean is [G]blue as [Fmaj7]blue as your [C/G]eyes
I'm gonna [C/G]take it with [G]me when I [C/G]go
Now [C/G]long, long ago
And [Fmaj7]way back when
We lived in Coney [C/G]Isla[G]nd
[Am]Ain't no [G]good thing [Fmaj7]ever d[C/G]ies
I'm gonna [C/G]take it with [G]me when I [C/G]go
Far, far a[Am]way [Fmaj7]
A train whistle [C/G]blows [G]
Wherever you're [Am]going
Wher[Fmaj7]ever you've [G]been
Waving good[Am]bye [Fmaj7]
At the end of the [C/G]day [G]
You're up and you're [Am]over
And you're [Fmaj7]far away [G]
[C/G]Always for you
And [Fmaj7]forever yours
It felt just like the [C/G]old [G]days
We [Am]fell as[G]leep on [Fmaj7]Beulah's [C/G]porch
I'm gonna [C/G]take it with [G]me when I [C/G]go
[C/G]All broken down
On the [Fmaj7]side of the road
I was never more a[C/G]live or a[G]lone
I've [Am]worn the [G]faces off [Fmaj7]all the [C/G]cards
I'm gonna [C/G]take it with [G]me when I [C/G]go
Children are [Am]playin[Fmaj7]g
At the end of the [C/G]day [G]
Strangers are [Am]singing
[Fmaj7]On our [G]lawn
It's got to be [Am]more [Fmaj7]
Than flesh[C/G] and bone [G]
All that you've [Am]loved
Is [Fmaj7]all you [G]own
In a [C/G]land there's a town
And in that [Fmaj7]town there's a house
And in that [C/G]house there's a [G]woman
And [Am]in that [G]woman there's a [Fmaj7]heart I [C/G]love
I'm gonna [C/G]take it with [G]me when I [Am]go [Fmaj7]
I'm gonna [C/G]take it with [G]me when I [C/G]go
Well the [C/G]phone's off the hook
No one [Fmaj7]knows where we are
