Madman Across the Water piano leadsheet with chords

I can see

very well.

There's a boat on the reef with a broken back,

and I can see it very well.

There's a joke

and I know it very well.

It's one of those that I told you long ago.

Take my word, I'm a madman,

don't you know?

Once a fool

had a good part in the play.

If it's so, would I still be here today?

It's quite peculiar in a funny sort of way.

They think it's very funny ev'rything I say.

Get a load of him, he's so insane.

You better get your coat,

dear, it looks like rain.

We'll come again next Thursday afternoon.

The inlaws hope they'll see you very soon.

But is it in your conscience that you're after

another glimpse of the madman across the water?

you know?

The ground's a long way down,

but I need more.

Is the nightmare black or are the windows painted?

Will they come again next week?

Can my mind really take it?

We'll come again next Thursday afternoon.

The inlaws hope they'll see you very soon.

But is it in your conscience

that you're after

another glimpse of the madman across the water?
