1. I've seen the yellow lights go down the Mississippi
|F#m E |F#m E F#m tacet
I've seen the bridges of the world and they are for real
|D E |A F#m
I've had a red light off-the-wrist without even getting kissed
|D |E
It still seems so unreal.

2. I've seen the morning in the mountains of Alaska.
I've seen the sunset in the East and in the West.
I've sang the glory that was Rome
and passed the 'Hound Dog' singer's home.
It still seems for the best

Refr. And I'm far, far away
|D |E
With my head up in the clouds
|A A/G# |A/F# A/E
And I'm far, far away
|D |E
With my feet down in the crowds
|A A/G# |A/F# A/E
Letting loose around the world
|D |C#
But the call of home is loud
|F#m E |F#m E |F#m E
Still as loud

3. I've seen the Paris lights from high upon Montmartre
and felt the silence hanging low in No Man's Land.
And though those Spanish nights were fine
it wasn't only from the wine.
It still seems all in hand

Refr.

4. I've seen the yellow lights go down the Mississippi.
The Grand Bahama Island stories carry on.
And though those aligator smiles
stay in your memory for a while,
there still seems more to come.

Refr.
