"The Calico Girl" [Verse]

Life would be fine

If I never had to earn another dime

G#                                     F    F7
Making my mind up would be mindless to me

'Cause I'd be gay and carefree

C#          A#7
Under my palmtree

   D#    G#        C#      A7  
A Calico girl with me
[Verse]
            C#
I'd shoot crap with the king

               F         F7
Play poker with the president

        A#m
I'd eat nightingale tongue

                    C#    C#7
The queen cooked for me

With Cleopatra she was my Calico girl

A Calico girl with me
[BREAK]
     F                       A#m
And we would sit beneath the pale moonlight

   F                       A#m
And serenade until our hearts' delight

   C7                  F
My Monte Carlo man is by my side

Just for you, all for you

Making my mind up would be mindless to me
[Chorus]
      F#          F#m
Oh but it's just a daydream

    C#          A#7
I've nothing it seems

D#7            G#7    C#   A#7
Except for this old jalopy

Oh but to be gay and carefree

C#        A#7
Under my palmtree

   A7      G#7        C#
A Calico girl with me
