1	He went to Paris, looking for answers						He went to Paris lookin' for answers	1
	To questions that bothered him so						To questions that bothered him so
	He was impressive, young and aggressive						He was impressive, young and aggressive
2	Saving      world on his own						Savin' the world on his own	2
	But the warm summer breezes						But the warm summer breezes
	The French wines and cheeses						The French wines and cheeses
	Put his ambition at bay						Put his ambition at bay
3	The summers and winters, scattered like splinters						The summers and winters	3
1							Scattered like splinters	1
	And four or five years slipped away						And four or five years slipped away
4	He     went to England, played the piano						Then he went to England, played the piano	4
	And married an actress named Kim						And married an actress named Kim
	They had a fine life, she was a good wife						They had a fine life, she was a good wife
	And bore him a young son named Jim						And bore him a young son named Jim
5	All      of the answers and all of the questions						And all of the answers and all of the questions	5
	Locked in his attic one day						Locked in his attic one day
6	'Cause he liked the quiet clean country living						'Cause he liked the quiet clean country livin'	6
	And twenty more years slipped away						And twenty more years slipped away
7	Well the war took his baby,      bombs killed his lady						Well the war took his baby, the bombs killed his lady	7
	And left him with only one eye						And left him with only one eye
	His body was battered, his whole world was shattered						His body was battered, his whole world was shattered
	And all he could do was just cry						And all he could do was just cry
8	While the tears were a falling, he was recalling						While the tears were a-fallin'           he was recallin'	8
	Answers he never found						Answers he never found
	So he hopped on a freighter, skidded the ocean						So he hopped on a freighter, skidded the ocean
	And left England without a sound						And left England without a sound
9	Now he lives in the islands, fishes the pilings						Now he lives in the islands, fishes the pilin's	9
	And drinks his Green Label each day						And drinks his Green Label each day
10	Writing his memoirs, losing his hearing						Writing his memoirs, losin' his hearin'	10
	But he don't care what most people say						But he don't care what most people say
	Through eighty-six years of perpetual motion						Through eighty-six years of perpetual motion
11	If he likes you, he'll smile and he'll say						If he likes you he'll smile and he'll say	11
	"Jimmy, some of it's magic, some of it's tragic						"Jimmy, some of it's magic, some of it's tragic
	But I had a good life all the way"						But I had a good life all the way"
12	And he went to Paris looking for answers						Coda:	12
2							And he went to Paris lookin' for answers	2
	To questions that bothered him so						To questions that bothered him so
