Verse 1:
A DHe went to Paris lookin' for answers to questions
That bothered him so
He was impressive,young and agressive
D E7Savin' the world on his own
Warm summer breezes,French wine and cheeses
D E7Put his ambition at bay
AThe summers and winters scattered like splinters
And four or five years slipped away
Verse 2:
A DHe went to England,played the piano,and married
An actress named Kim
They had a good life,she was a good wife
D E7And bore him a young son named Jim
All of the answers and all of the questions
D E7He locked in his attic one day
A'Cause he liked the quiet clean country livin'
And twenty more years slipped away
Verse 3:
A DWar took his baby,Bombs killed his lady and left him
With only one eye
His body was battered,his whole world was shattered
D E7All he could do was just cry
While the tears were fallin' he was recallin'
D E7Answers that he never found
ASo he hopped in a freighter,skidded the ocean
And left England without a sound
Verse 4:
A DNow he lives in the islands,fishes the pilin' and drinks
His Green label each day
Writing his memoirs,losin' his hearin'
D E7But he don't care what most people say
After eighty-six years of perpetual motion
D E7If he likes you he'll smile and say
A"Jimmy,some of it's magic,probably tragic,
But i had a good life all the way"
He went to Paris lookin' for answers to questions
E7 AThat bothered him so
