James... we were always friends,
F                   Cm  D7
From our childhood days
Gm7                 C
And we made our plans,
F              Dm7     G       F/C C
And we had to go our separate ways.
F7/9              Bb
I went on the road
E7             A
You pursued an education.
Dm7     Gm7                 C
James...do you like your life,
F               Cm  D7
Can you find release,
Gm7                 C
And will you ever change
F              Dm7       G     F/C C
Will you ever write your masterpiece.
F7/9              Bb
Are you still in school
E7           A
Living up to expectations...

everybody knows how hard you tried
 Dm Bbmaj7 Am7
Hey...
     Ab                         Gm7
just look at what a job you've done
C#9          C          Asus     A
Carrying the weight of family pride.

James... you've been well behaved,
F                      Cm  D7
You've been working so hard
Gm7                 C
But will you always stay
F              Dm7       G       F/C C
Someone else's dream of who you are.
F7/9                  Bb
Do what's good for you
E7           A
or you're not good for anybody...
