Jimmy Buffett - Last Mango In Paris

Capo: 2nd fret

[Verse 1]
D G
I went down to Captain Tony’s
D G
To get out of the heat
D G
Then I heard a voice call out to me
D G
“Son come have a seat”

Bm G
I had to search my memory
Bm G
As I looked into those eyes
Bm G
Our lives change like the weather
D A
But a legend never dies

[Chorus]
D G
He said I ate the last mango in Paris
A D
Took the last plane out of Saigon
Bm Em
Took the first fast boat to China
A D
And Jimmy there’s still so much to be done

[Verse 2]
D G
I had a third world girl in Buzios
D G
With a pistol in each hand
D G
She always kept me covered
D G
As we moved from land to land

Bm G
I had a damn good run on Wall Street
Bm G
With my high fashion model wife
Bm G
I woke up dry beneath the African sky
D A
Just me and my Swiss Army knife

[Chorus]
D G
He said I ate the last mango in Paris
A D
Took the last plane out of Saigon
Bm G
Took the first fast boat to China
A D
And Jimmy there’s still so much to be done

[Instrumental]
D G A D Bm G A D

[Verse 3]
D G
We shot the breeze for hours
D G
As the sun fell from the sky
D G
And like the sun he disappeared
D G
Before my very eyes

Bm G
It was somewhere past dark-thirty
Bm G
And I went back to the head
Bm G
I read upon the dingy wall
D A
The words the old man said

[Chorus]
D G
He said I ate the last mango in Paris
A D
Took the last plane out of Saigon
Bm G
Took the first fast boat to China
A D
And Jimmy there’s still so much to be done

D G
He said I ate the last mango in Paris
A D
Took the last plane out of Saigon
Bm G
Took the first fast boat to China
A D
And Jimmy there’s still so much to be done

[Outro]
D
That’s why we wander and follow La Vie Dansante
G
On the night wind that takes us just where we roam
Em A D
That’s all we want La Vie Dansante

D
La La La La La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La La La La La

G Em A D
La la la la la la la la

D
That’s why we wander and follow La Vie Dansante
G
On the night wind that takes us just where we roam
Em A D
That’s all we want La Vie Dansante
