  In the Shelter

  By: Jimmy Buffett

  1971

  

  Intro:  A  E    A  E  

  E              

      In the shelter

                                                A

      In the mornin' as the sun is brightly gleaming

  F#m  

      I heard her crying out,  "What is it all about?

        E                    A               E

      I just don't know, but I can't go back home"

  

  E 

      Lonely princess

                                                  A

      All the days out on your own are growing empty

  F#m

      Nothing is going well  

                                  E

      If you could only tell them how you feel  

           A                  E 

      But they're too real to understand

  

  Chorus:

     A             

       Too many trite expressions

                                   E

       Ending in forced rejections long ago

     A    

       To many innocent faces

                                  E

       In too many far out places somethings wrong 

                            B

       Let me tell you that somethings wrong

                      A                       E

       It's been that way so long, and it's a shame

  

  On the street car

  To the city where she knows she may lose it all

  Riding for just a dime, takin' her own sweet time

  And knowing well that this could be her final fall

  

  Past the boutique

  To the alley down the river, people pass her by 

  She sits on a big gray rock, takes off her boots and socks

  Not knowin' what she will do next just starts to cry

  

  Chorus:

     A 

       Too many wild rejections

                                 E

       Endin' in angry questions from her dad

     A

       Too many T.V. dinners

                                        E

       Ah, everyone loves a winner, but she was lost

       A                 E

       No one knows the trials she had

  

  (Repeat first verse, then)

  E                             A               E      A  E    A  E

  Hell, I just don't know,  but I can't go back home               (fade)
