[Verse 1]

      F5 G5                 Bb5  G5 Bb5
I was on   my way down to Mex - ic-o
C5        F5  G5               Bb5   G5 Bb5
There was trouble on the rise
C5     F5 C5                     Bb5 G5 Bb5
It was nothing more than I'd left    behind
C5        F5  G5              Bb5 G5 Bb5
Which was much  to my surprise
C5 C7
 I turned around and lit a cigarette
C7
Wiped the dust off of my boots
     F5 G5         Bb5    G5   Bb5 C5
When up ahead I saw   the crowd
  F5   G5           Bb5 G5 Bb5 C5
I knew it was no use
     D7
It's been the same way for oh so long
   C7                             Bb5        Bb5 C5  Bb5 C5
It looks like I'm singing the same  old song

[Verse 2]

  F5  G5              Bb5 G5 Bb5
A fine  and fancy man was he
C5    F5     G5               Bb5 C5 Bb5
Doing good things for the poor
C5     F5   G5                           Bb5    G5 Bb5 C5
Giving rides  in his rocking Eighty-eight   for free
      F5   G5               Bb5  G5 Bb5
They could not hope for more
C5      C7
When it came my turn he said to me
C7
"Have I seen your face before?"
       F5 G5              Bb5 G5  Bb5 C5
I said,  "Oh no, you must be  wrong
    F5   G5              Bb5 G5 Bb5
I'm from a distant shore"
C5 D7
So if you don't mind I'll just move along but
             C7                    Bb5          Bb7
It looks like  I'm singing the same   old song

[Verse 3]

  F5               Bb5 G5 Bb5
A Nineteen Forty movie star
C5     F5  G5             Bb5  G5 Bb5
With a long forgotten name
C5        F5 G5                Bb5 G5 Bb5 C5
She was a sexy mess in her pleated dress
     F5 G5              Bb5 G5 Bb5
Still hanging on to fame
C5      C7
With forgotten lines she missed her cue
C7
And left a glass of wine at home
        F5 G5                      Bb5 G5 Bb5 C5
She was singing the same song that I   was
F5    G5               Bb5  G5 Bb5 C5
Could we both be wrong?
   D7
So hand in hand we walked along,
C7
Each of us singin' the same old song.
