Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Sometimes I imagine myself as a drifter,

seeker of fortunes, connoisseur of great wines.

Dashing through meadows of yellow and green,

trying to catch the impossible dream,

leaving the straight life be..hind.

Sometimes my thoughts may find me in Mexico,

drinking tequila, going out of my mind.

Having a ball on a couple of bob,

treating the ladies to corn on the cob,

leaving the straight life be..hind.

Chorus

Suddenly all my silly thoughts disappear,

 she comes to me softly with crackers and beer,

winking and blinking and blowin' in my ear,

running away with my mi..nd.

It's great to be in love, I'm not really thinking of,

leaving the straight life be..hind,

 I'm just playing a game in my mind.

Do n' do do do do do do do do do....do n' do do do do do do do do do.

Once in a while in my mind I go bummin’,

going to nowhere, with no worry of time.

Running along chasing after a train,

humming a song in the sun and the rain,

leaving the straight life be...hind.

I can just see me on a tropical island,

riding the surf and drinking coconut wine.

Having me fun with golden girls in the sand,

chasing the sun through an innocent land,

leaving the straight life be..hind.

Chorus

Suddenly all my silly thoughts disappear,

 she comes to me softly with crackers and beer,

winking and blinking and blowin' in my ear,

running away with my mi..nd.

It's great to be in love, I'm not really thinking of,

leaving the straight life be..hind,

 I'm just playing a game in my mind.

Outro

Do n' do do do do do do do do do....do n' do do do do do do do do do.
