          E                     Asus2 F#m7    B7sus4  B7
I got a school boy heart, a novelist  eye

E                  C#m   F#m7    E/G# A     B7
Stout sailor’s legs and a license to fly

E           Asus2        F#m7         B7sus4 B7
I came with nomad feet and some wandering toes

E           C#m                 F#m7 E/G# A  B7
That walk up my long board and hang off the nose
[Verse 1]
        G#m
I suppose

A9                              G#m7
The need to focus never arose

C#7                                     F#m
So something like a Swiss army knife

                B7
That’s my life

G#m             A9                             G#m7
Frankenstein had nothing on this body of mine

C#7                               F#m            D9(b5)
The villagers still flockin’ to see, to see me

           C7                   B7
Breaking free, breaking free
[Chorus 2]
  E                     Asus2 F#m7              B7sus4  B7
Cause I got a school boy heart, a novelist eye

E                  C#m   F#m7    E/G# A     B7
Stout sailor’s legs and a license to fly

          E               Asus2    F#m7          B7sus4  B7
I got a bartender’s ear and beachcomber’s style

   E        C#m            F#m7 E/G# A  B7
Piratical nerve and a Vaudevillian style
[Link]
E       Asus2  F#m7         B7sus4  B7
I       Oo

E       C#m    F#m7 E/G# A  B7
I       yi  yi  yi  yi  yi
[Verse 2]
      G#m
I suspect

A9                             G#m7
I died in some cosmic shipwreck

C#7                                    F#m
With all hands spread all over the deck

              B7
What the heck

G#m              A9                            G#m7
Then some kind of obscene and unscrupulous mind

C#7                     F#m               D9(b5)
Began to pick up what he could find

       C7                B7
Added ice, shook me twice, added ice, rolled the dice
[Chorus 3]
 E                     Asus2 F#m7             B7sus4  B7
Now I got a school boy heart, a novelist eye

E                  C#m   F#m7    E/G# A     B7
A sailor’s legs and a license to fly

          E               Asus2    F#m7      B7sus4  B7
I got a native tongue from way down south

  E        C#m            F#m7 E/G# A  B7
It sits in the cheek of my gulf coastal mouth
[Chorus]
 E                     Asus2 F#m7             B7sus4  B7
Now I got a school boy heart, a novelist eye

E                  C#m   F#m7    E/G# A     B7
A sailor’s legs and a license to fly

          E               Asus2    F#m7         B7sus4  B7
I came with nomad feet and some wandering toes

  E        C#m            F#m7 E/G# A  B7
That glide up my longboard and hang off the nose
[Outro]
E       Asus2  F#m7         B7sus4  B7
I       Oo

E       C#m    F#m7 E/G# A  B7
I       yi  yi  yi  yi  yi
