Year: 2006 - Album: The Definitive Collection

Written by Walter Becker/Donald Fagen

	  		verse 1  : 

G                                      Em   
I remember the thirty-five sweet goodbyes 

C                       D                 G      
When you put me on the Wolverine up to Annandale 

G                                                      Em 
It was still September when your daddy was quite surprised 

C                      D                        G 
To find you with the working girls in the county jail 
            
       C      
I was smoking with the boys upstairs 

        D   
When I heard about the whole affair 

         G     Em    
I said,  Oh   no 

G           Em          C 
William and Mary won't do  

            D             Am7 
Well I did not think the girl 

           Bm7      Em7 
Could be   so    cruel 

        D             Am7 
And I'm never going back 

        Bm7      G 
To my   old     school 


Verse  2  : 

G                               Em   
Oleanders growing outside her door 

C                  D                    G      
Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale 

G                                        Em   
I can't stand her doing what she did before 

C               D                    G      
Living like a Gypsy queen in a fairy tale 

         C 
Well I hear the whistle but I can't go 

           D 
I'm gonna take her down to Mexico 

           G        Em 
She said,  Oh      no 

G     Em           C 
Guadalajara won't do 

        D                 Am7 
Well I did not think the girl 

           Bm7    Em7 
Could be    so  cruel 

         D             Am7  
And I'm never going back 

         Bm7    G 
To my    old    school 


Verse  3 : 

G                            Em 
California tumbles into the sea 

C               D                 G 
That'll be the day I go back to Annandale 

G                                        Em 
Tried to warn you about Chino and Daddy Gee 

C                       D                       G 
But I can't seem to get to you through the U.S.Mail 

        C                
Well I hear the whistle but I can't go 

           D 
I'm gonna take her down to Mexico 

          G        Em 
She said, Oh      no 

G    Em           C 
Guadalajara won't do 

        D                  Am7  
Well I did not think the girl 

           Bm7      Em7 
Could be   so      cruel 

        D             Am7 
And I'm never going back 
            
         Bm7      G 
To my    old     school .
