We Don't Live Here No More
Words and music by Bill Danoff
Sung by John Denver
from Farewell Andromeda (1973)
G Am D G C G
Make believe you're on a boat without water around
Am D7 G C G
Picture yourself at a circus without any clowns
Am D Bm Em
Pretend that you're on a highway without any e----nd
Am Bm
Then empty the ashtray, sweep up the floor
Em A7 Am D
Put a lock on your door and if somebody calls in the morning
D7 G C G
Just say we don't live here no mo--re.
G Am D G C G
Draw me a picture of an island without any seas
Am D7 G C G
Show me a map of the whole world without boundaries
Am D Bm Em
Build me a home without windows or doors to go i----n
Am Bm
Then empty the ashtray, sweep up the floor
Em A7 Am D
Put a lock on your door and if somebody calls in the morning
D7 G C G
Just say we don't live here no mo--re.
G Am D G C G
Dream of the time when the tides ebbing now rise again
Am D7 G C G
Then you will know that to die is not really to end
Am D Bm Em
Living and dying are both your most intimate fri--ends
Am Bm
So empty the ashtray, sweep up the floor
Em A7 Am D
Put a lock on your door and if somebody calls in the morning
D7 G C G
Just say we don't live here no mo--re.
Am D
And if somebody calls in the morning
D7 G C G
Just say we don't live here no mo--re.
