Intro:  D C G x3     C G D



        G           A           D
Saw him sittin on a sidewalk in Fresno
        G                   A
Braided hair and a tye-dyed t-shirt on
G         A             D
Talkin to himself about Vietnam
          G                   A
About the tour he did and the deal he got
             G                       A
He said this world ain't the same if you ask me.
           G                               A
If I could be somewhere else, I'd tell you where I'd

be

(Chorus)

       D            C          G
I'd be rollin' on a river with Creedance
         D                 A
Stealin' kisses from Peggy Sue
       D            C            G
I'd be knee-deep in sand on a Panama beach
       E          A
In the spring of '72
       G                   D
I'd be wastin' away on the dock of the bay
G                      D
Watchin' the tide roll in
             C                       G             
He said what I wouldn't give just to live those songs
D
again.



Saw him workin' the counter at Walgreens
With a new haircut and a Bachelor's Degree
Talkin' to himself about his raw deal
Cussin' Uncle Sam and the GI bill
He said This world ain't the same if you ask me
If I could be somewhere else, I'd tell you where I'd
be

He said this world ain't the same if you ask me.
If I could be somewhere else, I'd tell you where I'd
be

(Chorus)

Solo: Same as intro

He said this world ain't the same if you ask me.
If I could be somewhere else, I'd tell you where I'd
be

(Chorus)
