Take it With Me

Capo:  2

Standard tuning

    G                            C
The phone's off the hook, no one knows where we are

            G                           D
It's been a long time since I drank champagne

    Em       D        C            G
The ocean is blue, as blue as your eyes

          G            D         G
I'm gonna take it with me when I go

G                        C
Oh, long since gone, and now way back when

   G                 D
We lived in Coney Island

Em       D          C    G
Ain't no good thing ever dies

          G            D         G
I'm gonna take it with me when I go


         Em   C                G
Far, far away, a train whistle blows

                Em    C                Am     D
Wherever you're going, wherever you've been

           Em  C                   G
Waving goodbye   at the end of the day

                     Em   C                  Am    D
You're up and you're over   and you're far away


Oh, always for you, and forever yours
It felt just like the old days
We fell asleep on Beaula's porch
I'm gonna take it with me when I go
All broken down by the side of the road
I was never more alive or alone
I've worn the faces off all the cards
I'm gonna take it with me when I go

Children are playing at the end of the day
Strangers are singing out on our lawn
There's got to be more than flesh and bone
All that you're loved is all that you own

In a land there's a town, in a town there's a house
In that house there's a woman
And in that woman there's a heart that I love
I'm gonna take it with me when I go
I'm gonna take it with me when I go
