Chords and lyrics

D      G          G7              D7/Am   C                  
He awakens early in the morning, when the high fog that will burn off
G                                                 D             
Later in the day still shades the bluff below Casa Pacifica.
G                    G7                        C                  
He breakfasts on orange juice and a poached egg served him by the valet
D                 D7              G           
Who still calls him Mr. President.
C                                           D               D7                 
He wanders alone or with his close friend Bebe Rebozo out on Red Beach
G                          Am                       D        D7
Out of sight of the secret service men, who out of his hearing refer to him
G                   C               D              G                 
As the old man, and try to keep out of his way.
C              D               D7                 
Sometimes he rummages through the stacks of unanswered mail,
D7                               G
Or disconsolately plays the piano.
Am                             C            D     D7
He is terribly depressed, with much to be depressed about.
G               G7                                      C                                
He awakens early in the morning, when the high fog that will burn off
G                                                 D             
Later in the day still shades the bluffs below Casa Pacifica.
G                    G7                        C                  
He breakfasts on orange juice and a poached egg served him by the valet
D                 D7              G           
Who still calls him Mr. President.
