[Verse 1]
F Eb Bb
She'll be cleaning all the windows
F Eb Bb
Singin' songs about Edith Piaf's soul
F Eb Bb
And I hear blue strains of "No Regredior"
F Eb Bb
Across the street from cathedral Notre Dame
F Eb Bb
Meanwhile, back in San Francisco
F Eb Bb
I try hard to make this whole thing blend
F Eb Bb
And we sit upon this jagged
Cm F
Story block, with you, my friend
Eb Bb
And it's a long way Buffalo
Eb Bb
It's a long way to Belfast city, too
Eb Bb
And I'm hopin' the Joyce won't blow the hoist
Eb Bb
'Cause this time, they bit off more than they could chew
[Chorus]
F Eb
As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on
F Eb
As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on, yeah

[Verse 2]
F Eb Bb
All the orange boxes are scattered
F Eb Bb
I guess the Safeway supermarket in the rain
F Eb Bb
And everybody feels so determined
F Eb Bb
Not to feel anyone else's pain
F Eb Bb
No one makin' no commitments
F Eb Bb
To anybody but themselves
F Eb Bb
Talkin' behind closed doorways
Cm F
Tryin' to get outside, get outside of empty shell
Eb Bb
And for every cross country corner, country corner
Eb Bb
For every Hank Williams railroad train that cries
Eb Bb
And all the chains, badges, flags and emblems
Eb Bb
And every strain on brain and every eye
[Chorus]
F Eb
As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on
F Eb
As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on

[Verse 3]
F Eb Bb
All the restaurant tables are completely covered
F Eb Bb
And the record company has paid out for the wine
F Eb Bb
You got everything in the world you ever wanted
F Eb Bb
And right about now, your face should wear a smile, do you know that?
F Eb Bb
That's the way it all should happen
F Eb Bb
When you're in, when you're in the state you're in
F Eb Bb
Have you got your pen and notebook ready
Cm F
Think it's about time, time for us to begin
Eb Bb
And meanwhile, we're over on a 52nd Street apartment
Eb Bb
Socializin' with the winos too
Eb Bb
Just to be hip, and get wet with the jet set
Eb Bb
But they was flyin' too high to see my point of view
[Chorus]
F Eb
As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on
F Eb
As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on
