Intro: C#m A C#m B
C#m A
Tracks in the tall toadflax where he crawled,
C#m
Past Dodge Summit toward Athabasca falls,
B
Practicing his Avocets and Gnatcatcher calls
C#m
Walrus trudged along
A
While low in a lodgepole branch nearby
C#m
Barnyard Owl watched with an amorous eye
B
“What unprecedented gift does this afternoon provide?”
C#m A
“I’ve flown across the sea where the soldierfish swam,
C#m
I’ve slept inside the shoe of the world’s tallest man,
B
I saw Charlotte Corday with the knife in her hand;
It was nothing new
C#m A
I’ve perched on Steele, Dakota’s sandhill crane
C#m
I flew among the Paiutes before the Mormon rain,
B
I was in Virginia City for the stringing up of Clubfoot Lane
But I’ve never seen anything like you.”
E A B
All untied, by and by!
E
But I’d pour the matrimony wine
(E) A B
All untied, by and by!
E
so if you’re ever so inclined…”
“What from the air now calls to water on the land?
What from my seclusion does this charlatan demand?
What to do now with my best-laid eremetic plans?
I’ve been to the Arfaks where the Sicklebills fly,
seen Tangier’s acrobatics nine stories high
I was there at Appomattox back in ’65 when the General arrived
But I’ve never been in this room before!
E A B
All untied, by and by!
E
that same old dream’s trapped in my mind
(E) A B
All untied, by and by.
E
I’m bound in ropes and on the firing line
(E) A B
All untied, by and by
Bsus
well, I wake up disappointed every time
B Bsus
well, I wake up disappointed every time
