Capo 1
D A
You're like my yellow Boomerang
G A D
When you say you gonna have to leave
D A
Then like my yellow boomerang
G A D
you come boomeranging back to me
A
On Monday night for no apparent reason
G D
You said you were going out
A
Got to join the Navy or the Foreign Legion
G D
To find out what life's all about
G A D
Ah, it's the same old story
G A D
But then again I can't be too sure
G A Bm
And I'm so glad the next day
E A
...when I hear your tappin' and a knocking on my door
You're like my yellow Boomerang
When you say you gonna have to leave
Then like my yellow boomerang
You come boomeranging back to me
On Friday night you had a revelation
You wanna go to Brazil
Stay a while at Rio for the celebrations
Depending on how you feel
Ah, it's the same old story
But then again I can't be too sure
And I'm so glad the next day when
I hear your tappin' and a knocking on my door
You're like my yellow Boomerang
When you say you gonna have to leave
Then like my yellow boomerang
You come boomeranging back to me
You're like my yellow Boomerang
When you say you gonna have to leave
Then like my yellow boomerang
You come boomeranging back to me
