A Thousand Steps To Nowhere chords by Jimmy Buffett

Chords with lyrics

Norman Paperman - Male>
C majorC
A augmentedA thousand steps to nowhere
C majorC
That is all I see
C majorC
This night is asking questions
C majorC
Where and what for me
C majorC
A augmentedA thousand miles from Henny
C majorC
Who warned me from the start
G+G
I feel foolhardy, I miss Sardi's
C majorC
Thought I was so smart

Chorus
C majorC
Down is up, up is down
C majorC
That's just life in Kinja town
C majorC
The natives and the castaways
C majorC
That's just life for me these days

I've had it with this weather

My skin is pale as bleach

I'm heading back to Kinja

And stretch out on the beach

My past is in these boxes

All clean and neatly packed

No time for sorrow, I leave tomorrow

There's no turning back


No turning back, I'm island bound

I want to turn from white to brown

Sing and dance to calypso songs

Trade in this mink for a pink sarong

I really do admire him

And what he's taking on

This island and these crazies

But I fear he'll soon be gone

Can't let myself fall for him

A augmentedA terrible mistake

He's got Henny, I'm one too many

This time my heart could break

Chorus

A augmentedA thousand steps to nowhere

That is all I see

Paperman

My heart is pounding madly

Iris

Mine too, won't let me be

A augmentedA thousand reasons not to

Paperman

Strange but oh so true
I'm behaving

Iris
You're not past saving
A augmentedA thing we both should do

Henny
Cause he's happy

Duet
Down is up, up is down

Henny
I understand

Duet
That's just life in Kinja town

Henny
Cause he's my man

Duet

The natives and the castaways

That's just life for us these days

Henny

Cause he's happy

Duet

Down is up, up is down

Henny

I understand

Duet

That's just life in Kinja town

Henny

Cause he's my man

Duet

The natives and the castaways

Ensemble

That's just life for us these days

That's just life for us these days
