  performed by Waylon Jennings.

  

  

  Verse 1:

           A                                        D

  	He went to Paris lookin' for answers to questions 

                E7           A

  	That bothered him so

               

  	He was impressive,young and agressive

           D                      E7 

  	Savin' the world on his own

           D                    A   

  	Warm summer breezes,French wine and cheeses 

           D                  E7   

  	Put his ambition at bay

               A                         

  	The summers and winters scattered like splinters

               D            E7             A  

  	And four or five years slipped away

  

  

  Verse 2:

           A                                       D 

  	He went to England,played the piano,and married

              E7            A

  	An actress named Kim

  

  	They had a good life,she was a good wife 

               D                          E7  

  	And bore him a young son named Jim

           D                     A    

  	All of the answers and all of the questions

              D                       E7

  	He locked in his attic one day

                     A  

  	'Cause he liked the quiet clean country livin'

                D          E7             A

  	And twenty more years slipped away

  

  

  Verse 3:

           A                                           D  

  	War took his baby,Bombs killed his lady and left him

               E7        A 

  	With only one eye

  

  	His body was battered,his whole world was shattered

           D                        E7      

  	All he could do was just cry

                     D                A

  	While the tears were fallin' he was recallin'

              D                   E7  

  	Answers that he never found

                 A 

  	So he hopped in a freighter,skidded the ocean

               D            E7         A     

  	And left England without a sound

  

  

  Verse 4:

           A                                                  D

  	Now he lives in the islands,fishes the pilin' and drinks

                E7              A

  	His Green label each day

  

  	Writing his memoirs,losin' his hearin'

                  D                           E7

  	But he don't care what most people say

                 D                   A

  	After eighty-six years of perpetual motion

                 D                         E7

  	If he likes you he'll smile and say

                  A                  

  	"Jimmy,some of it's magic,probably tragic,

                 D          E7           A   

  	But i had a good life all the way"

  

              A                                     D  

  	He went to Paris lookin' for answers to questions

                E7           A   

  	That bothered him so
