verse 1
 
C              Am 
And i remember florida 
    F               G 
The land of endless malls 
C         Am 
Images of elvis flicks 
    F            G 
Convertibles and blondes 
C              Am 
And i remember cryin’ 
       F                     G 
As you walked away along the shore 
F                G                       C        G 
The last words i heard you say were what a bore 


verse 2 

C              Am 
And i remember drinking 
         F                    G 
In those air-conditioned bars 
C              Am                F 
Putting all my quarters in a juke-box 
                G 
With big silver stars 
C              Am            
And i remember nat king cole 
          F              G 
Singing a song about the rain 
F      G                  G  G/B Am 
Oh I'm feeling blue again---------- 
   F       G              C    C7 
Oh yea I'm feeling blue again---- 


           F    G          C     G/B  Am 
And it was just like a vacation 
        F       G           C    G/B  Am 
And i'm sure we had us some fun 
       F    G          C    G/B  Am 
It was just like a vacation 
      F             G              C 
And i swear we even sat out in the sun 



verse 3 

           C              Am 
You see my mother owned a trailer home 
        F                G 
On west Broward past A1A 
       C       
And to beat the north wind 
   Am 
We took a spin 
        F              G 
To that tin can by the sea 
               C 
Well i thought she was mine 
            Am 
But she was just passing time 
         F                        G 
She even passed out of town in my car 
F                G 
And left me with nat king cole 
           C         G/B  Am 
And the silver stars 
     F           G                   C 
Whoa,   nat king cole and the silver stars 


           F    G          C     G/B  Am 
And it was just like a vacation 
        F       G           C    G/B  Am 
And i'm sure we had us some fun 
       F    G          C    G/B  Am 
It was just like a vacation 
      F             G 
And i swear we even sat out 
      F             G 
Yea i swear we even sat out 
      F             G              C    Am 
Yea I swear we even sat out in the sun---- 
       C    Am 
In the sun---- 
       C    Am 
In the sun---- 
       C  
In the sun
