VERSE 1:
I would love to tour the Southland
In a travelling minstrel show
Yes I'd love to tour the Southland
In a traveling minstrel show

Yes I'm dying to be a star and make them laugh
Sound just like a record on the phonograph
Those days are gone forever
Over a long time ago, oh yeah

VERSE 2:
I have never met Napoleon
But I plan to find the time
I have never met Napoleon
But I plan to find the time

'Cause he looks so fine upon that hill
They tell me he was lonely, he's lonely still
Those days are gone forever
Over a long time ago, oh yeah

[SOLO]

BRIDGE / VERSE 3:
  Am                                      (short choppy chord)
I stepped up on the platform
    F        F                            (short choppy chords)
The man gave me the news
   Am                                     (short choppy chord)
He said, You must be joking son
      A A A   B B B     C C C   C# C# C#  (single bass notes)
Where did you get those shoes?
                                          (to Dm7 verse riff)
Where did you get those shoes?

Well, I've seen 'em on the TV, the movie show
They say the times are changing but I just don't know
These things are gone forever
Over a long time ago, oh yeah
