| G / / / | G / D C |Em / / / |Em / / / |
If you find me gone one day | G / / / | G / / / |
And the sad songs left half-done | F / / / | F / / / |
It won't be alone that I've gone away |Em / / / |Em / / / | A / / / | A / / / |
But a long way that I've run |Em / / / |B7 / / / | C / / / | C / / / |
I'll be gone with the girl in the gold silk jacket | G / / / | G / / / |E7 / / / |E7 / / / |
The girl with the pearl-driller's hands |Eb7/D / / / |D7 / / / | C / / / | C / / / |
| G / / / | G / / / |
If I fly the coop some time | G / / / | G / / / |
And take nothing but a grip | F / / / | F / / / |
With the few good books that really count |Em / / / |Em / / / | A / / / | A / / / |
It's a necessary trip |Em / / / |B7 / / / | C / / / | C / / / |
I'll be gone with the girl in the gold silk jacket | G / / / | G / / / |E7 / / / |E7 / / / |
The girl with the pearl-driller's hands |Eb7/D / / / |D7 / / / | C / / / | C / / / |
| G / / / | G / / / |
If one day you think me lost | G / / / | G / / / |
I'll be thinking with each kiss | F / / / | F / / / |
That the wrecked man has been found at last |Em / / / |Em / / / | A / / / | A / / / |
I waited too long for this |Em / / / |B7 / / / | C / / / | C / / / |
I'll be gone with the girl in the gold silk jacket | G / / / | G / / / |E7 / / / |E7 / / / |
The girl with the pearl-driller's hands |Eb7/D / / / |D7 / / / | C / / / | C / / / |
