The wind is in from Africa

Last night I couldn't sleep

                F               C
Oh, you know it sure is hard to leave here Carey

         G
But it's really not my home

C                                  G
  My fingernails are filthy, I got beach tar on my feet

      F                   C            G
And I miss my clean white linen and my fancy French cologne

                      C                         C6

Come on down to the Mermaid Café and I will

G
Buy you a bottle of wine

          F                  C                     G
And we'll laugh and toast to nothing and smash our empty glasses down

             C
Let's have a round for these freaks and these soldiers

  G
A round for these friends of mine

             F                               C
Let's have a nother round for the bright red devil

C
Maybe I'll go to Amsterdam

G
Maybe I'll go to Rome

    F                  C
And rent me a grand pi ano

             G
And put some camels 'round my room

C
Let's not talk about fare-thee-wells now

    G
The night is a starry dome

            F                     C
And they're playin' that scratchy rock and roll
