Paul Simon

^A Mama Pajama rolled out of bed
and she ran to the police ^D station
When the ^E papa found out he began to shout
and that's what started the investi ^A gation ^{D A}
But it's against the l ^E aw, it was against the ^A law
What the mama ^E saw, was against the ^A law
^A Well the mama looks down and she spit on the ground
Every time my name gets mentio ^D ned
And the p ^E apa says "Oy, when I get that boy
I'm gonna stick him in the house of ^A detention ^D !" ^A
And I'm on my ^D way, I don't know ^A where I'm going
I'm on my ^D way, takin' my t ^A ime but I d ^B on't know w ^E here
Goodbye to R ^D osie, Queen of ^A Corona
S ^A ee ^E you, me, and Julio down by the schoolyard
See you, ^A me, and ^G Julio ^D down by the ^E school ^A yard
break: D D A A D D A
E D D }Whistling part
^A E ^{E A} } ^{G D E A D
A} In a couple of days they come and take me away
But the press let the story ^D leak
And when the r ^E adical priest come and get me released
We's all on the cover of ^A Newsweek. ^{D A}
And I'm on my ^D way, I don't know ^A where I'm going
I'm on my ^D way, takin' my t ^A ime but I d ^B on't know w ^E here
Goodbye to R ^D osie, Queen of ^A Corona
S ^A ee ^E you, me, and Julio down by the schoolyard
See you, ^A me, and ^G Julio ^D down by the ^E school ^A yard

P.S. Since there is two guitars in the recording on the CD, just to clarify, this is the
guitar playing. The other one is, I think, on the fifth fret (I don't remember) and is
with a capo.
