The sun is warm as the day is long 
G 
I just got the feeling I can do no wrong 
C 
I've got a long way to walk 
C 
Can't afford my next meal 
  D 
I tell a few lies but my hunger is real 
             G 
And it won't mean a thing in a hundred years 
G 
No, it won't mean a thing in a hundred years 
G 
Mademoiselle tell me do you play 
G 
Well, if she shakes her head, well then that's okay 
C                    G 
I watch her walk away in haste 
D 
There's just no accounting for some people's taste, 
             G 
And it won't mean a thing in a hundred years 
G 
No, it won't mean a thing in a hundred years 
G 
Big angry man in the doorway there 
G 
Just keep on walking like I don't care 
C 
Why you giving such an evil eye 
              D 
Could it be you were ignored by every passerby 
G 
And it won't mean a thing in a hundred years 
G 
No, it won't mean a thing in a hundred years 

G 
Play in the park for tobacco and food 
G 
Then I excuse myself but they think I'm rude 
C 
Tourist don't want me to end his show 
           D 
But this colorful attraction got places to go 
         G 
And it won't mean a thing in a hundred years 
G 
No, it won't mean a thing in a hundred years

G 
Sit at the pier watch the sun go down 
G 
Another lost little boy in a big old town 
C 
I want to laugh I want to cry 
        D 
But no matter how hard I may try 
   G 
It won't mean a thing in a hundred years 
G 
No, it won't mean a thing in a hundred years 
G 
It won't mean a thing in a hundred years 
G 
No, it won't mean a thing in a hundred years
