Don't Look at My Shadow

G                       A7
New York City years ago tourists in the rain
C              D               G
Singin' on the swing shift for pennies
                         A7
Thinkin' 'bout the bayou cajun river song
C             D             G
Almost got my head broke in Texas

Purple Peacock Honky-Tonk in Eunice Louisiana
Bourbon whiskey free son just tune up the piano
Workin' clubs in New Orleans bringin' down a dollar
College boys drink beer and throw the bottles

Chorus:
            E7                      A
It's been a long long long way I've got some more to go
C                D            G
Don't look at my shadow its behind me
            E7                     A
It's been a long long long way in twenty years or so
C                    D            G
Thinkin' 'bout those times might amuse me
Instrumental + Chorus

L.A. Forum Sports Arena twenty thousand fans
Glad ya come to listen I'm gonna give you everything I can
I always had to play my music play it best I could
Hope you understand hear me good

You know the California dreamin' nearly put me down for good
Colorado Rocky Mountains saved my senses

Chorus and fade
