Roger McGuinn Without You written by Roger McGuinn/Jacques Levy
C Dm F C
There was no one else but you from the moment that we met
Dm F C
Foolish dreams were coming true it's a time I can't forget
Dm F C
Be my wife for evermore be my girl and comfort me
Dm F C
Put the lock upon the door smile and throw away the key
C G F C
Without you without you I'm without you
C Dm F C
With the movement of your head you could tell me what was wrong
Dm F C
Was it something that I said was my love for you too strong
Dm F C
If I knew this thing I did that was always in your way
Dm F C
I could make you do my bidding I could make you want to stay
Dm F C
Now I'm here without a friend cup of coffee in my hand
Dm F C
Walk the floor without an end staring at your wedding band

Without you without you I'm without you

Roger McGuinn America For Me Henry Van Dyke/Roger McGuinn
A Bm E A C#m F#m
It's fine to see the old world and travel up and down
D E A
Among the famous palaces and cities of renown
Bm E A C#m F#m
To admire crumbling castles and the statues of the kings
D E A
But now I think I've had enough of antiquated things
Bm E A C#m F#m
So it's home home again America for me
D E A
My heart is turning home again it's where I want to be
Bm E A C#m F#m
In the land of youth and freedom beyond the ocean wide
D E A
Where the air is full of sunlight and the flag full of stars
Bm E A C#m F#m
Oh London is a man's town there's power in the air
D E A
And Paris is a woman's town with flowers in her hair
Bm E A C#m F#m
And it's sweet to dream in Venice it's great to study Rome
D E A
But when it comes to living there's no place like home
Bm E A C#m F#m
So it's home home again America for me
D E A
My heart is turning home again it's where I want to be
Bm E A C#m F#m
In the land of youth and freedom beyond the ocean wide
D E A
Where the air is full of sunlight and the flag full of stars
Bm E A C#m F#m
I know Europe's wonderful yet something seems to lack
D E A
The past is too much with her and the people looking back
Bm E A C#m F#m
Oh the glory of the present is to make the future free
D E A
We love our land for what she is and what she is to be
Bm E A C#m F#m
So it's home home again America for me
D E A
My heart is turning home again it's where I want to be
Bm E A C#m F#m
In the land of youth and freedom beyond the oceans green
D E A
Where the air is full of sunlight and the flag full of stars

Roger McGuinn Living Legend written by Roger McGuinn
G C
Everybody called him a living legend
D G
But just being a legend didn't make him a living
C
And every day on the job his mind went spinning
D G
Back to twenty years ago and all the shows he was giving
G Am
He's a living legend he's got nowhere to go
C D C D
What he'd give to be on the road and to do another show
G Am
He's a living legend oh how he loved that life
C D C D G
Now he works in the factory and he just drinks beer at night
G C
Some of the younger stars grew up on his music
D G
And they liked his style so much they decided to use it
C
When he heard his songs on the radio he started to lose it
D G
But when the big money came in he couldn't refuse it
G Am
He's a living legend he's got nowhere to go
C D C D
What he'd give to be on the road and to do another show
G Am
He's a living legend oh how he loved that life
C D C D G
Now he works in the factory and he just drinks beer at night
G C
One day he brought his old guitar to the factory picnic
D G
And B.J. the country DJ heard him play it
G C
And everybody was still amazed at how well he could still pick
D G
And they booked him in the Golden Eagle before you could say it
G Am
He's a living legend he's got somewhere to go
C D C D
He's so glad to be on the road and to do another show
G Am
He's a living legend oh how he loves his life
C D C D G
And now he plays his music for the people every night

And now he plays his music for the people every night

One day you came into my mind
E G F# F#sus
And everything looked as though it was all mine
Bm D E G F# F#sus
Lovliness to gaze upon to feel your magic pulling me away
C# B
I thought I was on top of it all
C# B
Everyone else was so small
F#m
And I knew what you wanted to do I knew what you wanted to do
Bm D E
Often think of times when all your thoughts and words
G F#
Came close to making me lose my mind
Bm D E G F#
Only now recalling all the time envolving minutes that we spent alone

I thought I was on top of it all

C#m G#m A B7 E
If all my days were hills to climb and circles without reason
C#m G#m A B7 E
If all I was just passing time my life was just a season
E F#m A E
Dares and dreams and silly schemes and fillies running freely
C#m A B7
I was young and there was no song that didn't sound appealing
A B7 E F#m
I'd have my fun with a shy girl and maybe hop a train
A B7 E
And I'd look back at her standing in the rain
E F#m A E
Dirty hands and root beer stands and money like a river
C#m A B7
Making deals to see how it feels to get more than you're giving
A B7 E F#m
I'd have my fun with a gamblin man and bluff him with my face
A B7 E
And it's drinks for everybody in the place
C#m G#m A B7 E
If all my days were hills to climb and circles without reason
C#m G#m A B7 E
If all I was just passing time my life was just a season
E F#m A E
Shouting crowds and mummers shrouds and people going crazy
C#m A B7
Always said what was in their heads it surely was amazing
A B7 E F#m
I had my fun in the bull ring and never got a scar
A B7 E
It really wasn't hard to be a star

The Byrds Jack Tarr The Sailor written by Roger McGuinn
Dm C Dm C Dm
When first I come to Liverpool I went upon the street
C A
Had money at last I spent it fast got drunk as drunk could be
Dm C A
And when my money was all gone it was then that I wanted more
Dm C Dm C Dm
But a man must be blind to make up his mind to go to sea once more
Dm C Dm C Dm
Dm C Dm C Dm
I spent the night with Angeline to drunk to roll in bed
Me watch it was new and my money was too
C A
In the morning with them she fled
Dm C A
And as I roamed the streets of Bath the whores all would roar
Dm C
There goes Jarr Tarr the poor sailor
Dm C Dm Dm C Dm C Dm
He must go to sea once more
Dm C Dm C Dm
As I walking down the steet I ran into Robert Brown
C A
I asked him for to take me in and he looked at me with a frown
Dm C A
He said last night ya was paid off, with me ya jobless score
Dm C
But I'll take your advance and I'll give you the chance
Dm C Dm Dm C Dm C Dm
And I'll send you to sea once more
Dm C Dm C Dm
They shipped me aboard of a whaling ship bound for the Artic Sea
Where the cold winds blow thru the frost and the snow
C A
And Jamaica rum runs free
Dm C A
A'las I had no luck with my gear for I left all my money ashore
Dm C Dm C Dm
It was then that I wished that I was there safe with the girl's
ashore
Dm C Dm C Dm
Dm C Dm C Dm
Come all ye boat seafaring lads who listen to my song
C A
And when you come off them long trip with actions not go wrong
Dm C A
Take my advice drink no strong drink don't go sleeping with no whores
Dm C Dm C Dm
But get married lads and have all night in and go to to sea no more

Roger McGuinn If We Never Meet Again written by Jules Shear
G Em Am D
Well there's one thing I'd like to rearrange
Bm Em Am D
But after everything's already happened there's nothing left to change
G Em Am D
They can take their advice and use it all on themselves
Bm Em Am D
Cause when all the talking stops I want to have something else
C Bm
I want to have a little faith I want to know what a boy and a girl can
do
Em Bm C Am D
When they're dizzy cause they're just not spinning with this world
G C D G C D
Ah if we never meet again if goodbyes remain unspoken
G C D G C D
I won't glorify our past but our bond remains unbroken
G
If we never meet again
G Em Am D
Well there's one thing that I'll never forget
Bm Em Am D
It's the beauty of a friendship that's not over yet

Bm Em Am D
And I want to do that with somebody else the way it was done for me
C Bm
I want to have a little faith there's something better at the end of
this path

The Byrds Yesterday's Train written by Gene Parsons/Skip Battin
E F#m
When you meet someone that you don't know

But you know them just the same

You begin wondering if by chance it might be
A G#m F#m E
An Acquaintance from yesterday's train
E F#m A E E F#m A G#m F#m E
E F#m
Well there's something in her eyes that you've seen before
A E
Maybe a memory or a mistress from another world
F#m
But you know that the trees are green and a baby cries
A G#m F#m E
From dust to dust yet nothing dies
E F#m
You never know where we are in this endless place
A E
Or who we are in this endless space
F#m
But we know that the trees are green and a baby cries
A G#m F#m E
From dust to dust yet nothing dies
D C
Yesterday's train is rolling
D C
Can you touch it thru the mist
D C
Did you meet someone on yesterday's train

Can you tell it with a kiss can you tell it with a kiss

Its waters were sweet and its banks were green

A blue tick hound and redneck child

We thought we were birds of a feather

Ah the fish would bite, my how they'd fight

We'd catch them possums in the pale moonlight

For Nola, just to please her

Bugler's voice like Gabriel's horn

Up in the cypress and down through the corn

Golden sounds, yes to treasure

Jesus gonna take you for a chariot ride

Say goodbye, say goodbye

One day Nola, she brought the news, she said,

I hear young Bugler's done paid his dues,

He's been hit down, yes on that highway

Dry your eyes and stand up straight
