These are just the simple facts I will relate to you  
       G/A                              Asus4 
Though they are not connected, each and every one is true  
        D                         Asus4 
If they seem a bit untidy, well unravelling them is fun  
  G/A                              Asus4 
I will not stand corrected, I have not harmed anyone

One sane and simple answer on the bright side of my mind

I knew a man from Windsor who went to Detroit every night  
    G/A                              Asus4 
And Stateside of the tunnel, customs agents gave him flight  
   D                                    Asus4 
He threw his stash in the river and his bedroll on the ground  
    G/A                                     Asus4

D                   F                 G                   Asus4 
I might be out here fishing, man, but that ain't where it stops  
    F        G        D             F         G        D

One day when I'm old and grey and consider what's gone by

I always will be proud of every tear I've ever cried  
    D                             Asus4 
And all of the old jokes we told around the candle light 
   G/A                              Asus4 
To all those tender damsels who had helped us in the night
