Roger McGuinn Take Me Away written by Roger McGuinn
Jacques Levy
D C A G
G
You should have been there when the
B7 C
Time was right for the music to begin
Am D G
You shoulda been there when that band of gypsies started rolling in
B7 C
You should seen it you'da swore for sure the circus came to town
Am D
There were ladies ridin bareback and the mystery man
G
All painted like a clown
B7 C
You should seen October feelin like I never felt before
Am D
Flashin up New England skies like the fires of the revoluntionary
G
war
G B7
You should heard the music comin down like the hardest rain that ever
C
fell
Am
Waking up in the afternoons
D G
With a hundred lovers feedin in the same motel
D C G
Take me away take me away take me away
D C G
Take me away take me away take me away
D C G
Take me away take me away take me away
D C G
Take me away take me away take me away
B7 Em
To the place where the greatest show on earth is playing
Am D
High on your highway
G B7 C
You shoulda seen me I've been told I had a smile upon my face
Am D G
Slippin from state to state ending up in a drunken state of grace
B7 C
It wasn't very long ago I used to say this kind of life is rough
Am D G
You shoulda been there but I can tell you even that was not enough
D C G
Take me away take me away take me away
D C G
Take me away take me away take me away
D C G
Take me away take me away take me away
D C G
Take me away take me away take me away
