D
Oh I just came back from Holland
On the very last day of Autumn
A
Made it through the customs, took the bus into town.
Em
The flat looked cold and empty
C
The chairs unused and dusty
A D
Just a few old letters and papers lying around.
D
The Dutch people were friendly
You know they put me up and they fed me
G
All along a tour of one night stands.
Gm
All my days and all my ways
D A
Are so confused
Em
But I tell you right now
G D
I'm going to make it back to Amsterdam.
Bm E
And you can feel fine anytime
A D
You choose to lose yourself for a while
G
Bottle of wine
A D
In some back street cafe
Bm E
Or out on the streets there's a chance
A D
For you to meet anybody you please
G
Taking the time
E G A
To ease your blues away
D
Fred was a crazy driver
He took us at a hundred miles an hour
G
Down a side street out of a traffic jam
Gm
All my days and all my ways
D A
Are so confused
Em
But I tell you right now
G D
I'm going to make it back to Amsterdam.
Bm E A D G A D Bm E A D G E G A D
D
Oh I just came back from Holland
And the very thing I was wanting
A
Was to find a way to let you know how I felt
Em
You can't say much in an evening
C
If you know you'll soon be leaving
A D
There's not much time to talk, and it's maybe as well
D
But I wanted to give you something
Because you know you really helped me
G
So I've written you a song with a small West Indian band
Gm
And though it seems some days that all my ways
D A
Are bound to lose
Em
I tell you right now
G D
I'm going to make it back to Amsterdam
Bm
Amsterdam
E
Amsterdam
G
Amsterdam
D G D
