Verse 1:
Gb/Db      Db
Rules and regulations
  Gb/Db         Db    Ab
And real estate are things I've left behind
Gb/Db       Db
Flights are always leaving
Gb/Db       Db    Ab
Silver wings unfolding on a dime
   Ebm7
But I won't forget to tell you
               Fm  Bbm
If I could only reconnect the line
 Gb        Db/Gb     Ab            Db
I never really knew you, but come back I'd like to find the time

Verse 2:
Gb/Db      Db
Drugs and consequences
  Gb/Db       Db       Ab
And ferris wheels just took us up and down
Gb/Db         Db
Fights were always brewing
Gb/Db        Db    Ab
Two perfect understudies for a clown
      Ebm7
If I could piece it all together
  Fm            Bbm
Or maybe find you through a friend
    Gb        Db/Gb
Last I heard it was St. Louis
   Ab            Db
But I wish that it was Mandalay Again


Chorus:
   Ab
Come back I'd like to find the time
    Gb           Db
Plant a seed and raise a little Cain
   Bbm        Ab       F   Bbm
Come back we'll throw a rope around the moon
    Gb         Ab    A  Db
And pretend that we're in Mandalay Again


Verse 3:
Gb/Db      Db
Fuel and information
  Gb/Db        Db    Ab
Are Siamese twins who poison everything
Gb/Db         Db
Lies that left us drowing
Gb/Db       Db    Ab
Rumor that burned like gasoline
       Ebm7
I could have read you like a book
  Fm          Bbm
Instead I acted dumb and blind
   Gb        Db/Gb
I was younger then and foolish
   Ab            Db
Come back I'd like to find the time


Chorus:
   Ab
Come back I'd like to find the time
    Gb           Db
Plant a seed and raise a little Cain
   Bbm        Ab       F   Bbm
Come back we'll throw a rope around the moon
    Gb         Ab    A  Db
And pretend that we're in Mandalay Again


Bridge:
   Bbm            Ab
It it wasn't in the afterglow of wine
    Gb            Db/F
Or the chatter of some European girl
     Bbm               Ab
I'd have understood that after all these years
      Gb               Ebm/Gb
There were those who chose to separate our worlds
Gb      Ab
Separate our worlds

Ab       Db


Chorus:
   Ab
Come back I'd like to find the time
    Gb           Db
Plant a seed and raise a little Cain
   Bbm        Ab       F   Bbm
Come back we'll throw a rope around the moon
    Gb         Ab    A  Db
And pretend that we're in Mandalay Again

We'll pretend that we're in Mandalay again
