G G7add9
the papers lie there helplessly in a pile outside my door ,
C/G go
i tried and tried , but i just can’t remember what they’re for .
C/G G6
the world outside is tugging like a beggar at my sleeve ,
G C/G go
oh that’s much too old a story to believe .
____
Gmaj7 C/G
and you know that it’s taken it’s share of me ,
Em C/G go
even though you take such good care of me .
Gmaj7 C/G
now you say morocco , and that makes me smile ,
go
i haven’t seen morocco in a long , long while .
____
Gmaj7 C/G
the dreams are rolling down across the places in my mind ,
go C/G go
and i’ve just had a taste of something fine .
___

the future hides and the past just slides , england lies between ,
floating in a silver mist so cold and so clean .
california’s shaking like an angry child will ,
who has asked for love and is unanswered still .

and you know that i’m looking back carefully ,
cause i know that there’s still something there for me .
but you said morocco , and that made me smile ,
it hasn’t been that easy for a long , long while ,

and looking back into your eyes i saw them really shine ,
giving me a taste of something fine ,
Gmaj7 C/G Gmaj7 Em C/G go
something fine~~~~~~
____

Gmaj7 C/G
now if you see morocco , i know you’ll go in style
go
i may not see morocco , for a little while .
Gmaj7 C/G
and while you’re there i was hoping you might keep it in your mind ,
go C/G go
to save me just a taste of something fine .
