VERSE:
G         G   Am                        C                  G   G
  "Geez", he said  the bands don't seem to play round here no more
Am                        C
  And Saturday night just aint the same
Am                    C               C             G   G
  Wish everything was back the way it used to be be-fore

  Now I sit here and push my long hair back behind my ears
Em                   Em         C                 C
  The face I used to hide behind  is now becoming ghostly with the years

bye Tiger  chasing those dolce vita times
Am7           C                   G         G
  Somehow you seem to have left me far behind
Am7                   Em9            Am7      Am7(11)
  But you can hear me whisper on the nightline  good

               I keep

VERSE-SHORT:
G        G    Am                   C            G      G
Shifting round  I wear the dust of many foreign streets
Am             C                     G  G
  Drifting and shifting with the wind__
Am                      Bm             C              'G  'G/F#
  Now this same wind is howling like a cyclone here in-side
Em          Em               C           C
  And I see I've got nothing left to hide

BRIDGE:
Am7        Em9            Am7          Am7(11)
  Nobody's gonna take the stage tonight
Am7             Em9        Am7  Am7
  So I sit here anyway and sigh   good

CHORUS:
G   G    Am7             C          G    G
bye Tiger  chasing those dolce vita times
Am7           C                   G         G
  Somehow you seem t'have left me far behind
Am7               Em9            Am7      Am7(11)
  You can hear me whisper on the nightline  good
Am7  Am7        Em9  Em9        Am7  Am7
bye  Tiger good-bye  Tiger good-bye
