[Verse 1]
F Dm
I've spent my days in restless ways, I've messed around with waifs and strays
G C
But after all, that's what I wanted
F Dm
She was simply searching for another house, another door
G C
When she knocked on mine, she got it
[Verse 2]
F Dm G
I opened up her eyes to situations she had previously denied
C
Even existed
F Dm
And once or twice I made her cry, but heaven knows, I didn't try
G C
To foul it up, or twist it
[Chorus]
Bb Am
The walrus and the carpenter, the whiting and the snail
F Bb
The lightning and the winds that wail
G
And all the freaks that ever were and the weirds that will be
C
Got nothing on you and me (got nothing on you and me)
[Instrumental]
F Dm G C F Dm G C
[Chorus]
Bb Am
The walrus and the carpenter, the whiting and the snail
F Bb
The lightning and the winds that wail
G
And all the freaks that ever were and the weirds that will be
C
Got nothing on you and me (got nothing on you and me)
[Verse 3]
F Dm
'Cause, you and me are gonna be the sensation of the seventies
G C
They'll maybe even build us a statue
F Dm
And in some distant future day, when we're strolling down the promenade
G C
You'll turn to me and say, "Is that you?"
[Chorus]
Bb Am
The walrus and the carpenter, the whiting and the snail
F Bb
The lightning and the winds that wail
G
And all the freaks that ever were and the weirds that will be
C F
Got nothing on you and me (got nothing on you and me)
[Outro] (## repeat and fade to end ##)
F Dm F Dm
You and me
