A Song For Jeffrey
=======================
written by Ian Anderson
Intro: D C G D
    
Gonna lose my way tomorrow,
gonna give away my car.
I'd take you along with me,
but you would not go so far.
Don't see what I do not want to see,
you don't hear what I don't say.
Won't be what I don't want to be,
I continue in my way.
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin',
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin',
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin' to,
I don't want to.
G C Bb G 2's
Everyday I see the mornin' come on in the same old way. 
I tell myself tomorrow brings me things I would not dream today.
flute solo over D C G D (?)
G C Bb G 3's
Gonna lose my way tomorrow,
gonna give away my car.
I'd take you along with me,
but you would not go so far.
Don't see what I do not want to see,
you don't hear what I don't say.
Won't be what I don't want to be,
I continue in my way.
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin',
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin',
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin' to,
I don't want to.
G C Bb G 3's
Intro again: D C G D A few times
