  {t:Pencil Thin Mustache}

  {st:Jimmy Buffett}

  

  [D]Now they make new [F#7]movies in [B7]old black and white

  [E7]With happy endings, where [A7]nobody fights

  So [D]if you find your[F#7]self in that nos[B7]talgic rage

  Honey, [E7]jump right up and [A7]show your age

  

  {c:Chorus:}

       I [D]wish I had a [F#7]pencil thin mus[B7]tache

     [E7]  The "Boston [A7]Blackie" [D]kind

       A [D]two toned [F#7]Ricky Ricar[B7]do jacket

       And an [E7]autographed picture of[A7] Andy Devine

  

       Oh I[D] remember bein' buck[D7]-toothed and skinny

       [G]Writin' fan letters to [Bb]Sky's niece Penny

       Oh I [D]wish I had a [F#7]pencil thin [B7]mustache

       Then [E7]I could solve some [A7]mysteries [D]too

  

  {c:Bridge:}

  Oh it's [Em]Bandstand, [B7]Disneyland, [Em]growin' up [B7]fast

  [Em]Drinkin' on a [B7]fake I.D.[Em]

  And [F#m]Rama of the [C7]jungle was [F#m]everyone's [C7]Bawana

  But [E7]only jazz musicians were [A7]smokin' marijuana

  Yeah, I [D]wish I had a [F#7]pencil thin [B7]mustache

  then [E7]I could solve some [A7]mysteries [D]too

  

  (same as above chords with this verse)

  But then it's flat top, dirty bob, coppin' a feel

  Grubbin' on the livin' room floor (so sore)

  Yeah, they send you off to college, try to gain a little knowledge,

  But all you want to do is learn how to score 

  

  Yeah, but [D]now I'm gettin' [F#7]old, don't [B7]wear underwear

  I [E7]don't go to church and I [A7]don't cut my hair

  But [D]I can go to [F#7]movies and [B7]see it all there 

  Just the [E7]way that it u[A7]sed to [D]be

  

  {c:Chorus:}

       That's why I wish I had a pencil thin mustache

       The "Boston Blackie" kind, a two-toned Ricky Ricardo jacket 

       And an autographed picture of Andy Devine

  

       Oh, I could be anyone I wanted to be 

       Maybe suave Errol Flynn or a Sheik of Arabie

       If I only had a pencil thin mustache

       Then I could do some cruisin' too

       Yeah, [D]Bryl-cream, a little dab'll do yah

       Oh, [E7]I could do some [A7]cruisin' [D]too
