Eldorado Lyrics

Jim Lauderdale Eldorado Lyrics

Intro: Am Am Em Em Dm Em Am Em
Jack of all trades, I mastered them all but one
Like it says on my calling card, thy will be done
I was a sailor once, you better believe it's so
I sailed sixty seven seas, lookin' for
El Dorado, Now it can't be told
I'm still searchin' for, The city of solid gold
Jack of all trades, been lookin' both high and low
I search closer to home these days, you never know
I was a sailor once, until I ran out of seas
Now I'm down on my knees, lookin' for
El Dorado, Just like days of old
Rays of the setting sun, city of Gold
If you don't believe me, why should I believe in you?
To set sail in eternity, let love be true
All that I'm sayin', you can check you dream at the door
Don't run off and forget, chasin' more and more
El Dorado, Where winter's never cold
No frosty winds to blow, city of Gold
Break: F-F-G
Are you searchin' for El Dorado and the seven cities of Gold?
Are you beyond all that, I ask it might be told?
You only look like me, I can't be sure
I can't trust my memory, it might be yours
Repeat Intro: Am Am Em Em Dm Em Am Em
When they chase me down, be a devil or two to pay
I'm a jack of all trades, out of my way
I was a sailor once, you better believe it's so
Sailed six of the seven seas, lookin for
El Dorado, Now it can't be told
I'm still searchin for the city of solid gold
El Dorado, Just like days of old
Rays of the setting sun, city of solid Gold
