     A                                 Amaj7
Your mind sings some lyrics like we're memory

     A7                           F#
Your sad our goodbyes sound nostalgy

     E                           E6
Your chords swung me from an old hollow tree

     D7                        D7
I'm living like a vagabond, I just can't decide

A                   A
When to leave

         A                            Amaj7
But it's roots are in the river to my mood it swings

  A7                         F#
A vow even is impossible to keep

      E                              E6
Every day is starting on the balance beam

D7                             D7
Still you're standing with me, always carrying

A
The melody

G                      G
Smiling all the while, the paint chips off

      G     D    A
Of my Mardi Gras beads

         A                        Amaj7
It's the images contained not the lens or frames

  A7                               F#
Recalled to my mind before I fall asleep

  E                              E6
A list of regrets is no place to be

    D7                      D7 
I'm coming in late but I'll never modulate us

A                 A
To a minor key

G                      G
Smiling all the while, the paint chips off

      G     D    A
Of my Mardi Gras beads
