[Verse]
Gb                  
  By: jimmy buffett
         Gb        
Nineteen seventyone
       Db               
Hardly seems a long time
B             Db        
Just a minute of the day
Bbm                   B        
But the man who stood beside me
Ab             Db           Db7
More than gave himself away   
               Db                  
The food stain on his spotted shirt
B               Gb      
A gray beard on his face
      B           Gb        
A man composed of many names
Db               Gb     
So I just called him ace


[Chorus]
B                                             
Chorus: But ace can't read and ace can't write
Db                          B    
And he sleeps on a bench at night
                                Gb    
A little man the world has left behind
B                               
 He ain't bitter he ain't sweet
Db                      B     
Makes his living on the street
      Db                Gb        
Never knowing what he's gonna find


[Verse]
        Db         
Born in mississippi
B              Db7       
Picking cotton as a child
Bbm       B           
Left soon for the city
Ab7                      Db      
Where he heard that life was wild
Gb       Db             
That was fifty years ago
B                     Gb     
When nothing's really strange
                 B       Gb           
From a poor dirt farm to dirty streets
Db            Gb         
Is really not much change


[Chorus]
B                                             
Chorus: And ace can't read and ace can't write
Db                          B    
And he sleeps on a bench at night
                                Gb    
A little man the world has left behind
B                               
 He ain't bitter he ain't sweet
Db                      B     
Makes his living on the street
                        Gb        
Never knowing what he's gonna find

[Verse]
        Db            
Go back to the country
B     Db                  
No he really can't do that
Bbm              B            
   Wasted years have left him
Ab                 Db       
Nothing but an old straw hat
Gb         Db            
So he puts it on his head
B                Gb     
And waves a last goodbye


[Chorus]
        B                  
No time left to turn around
            Db     Gb 
And no time to ask why
B                                      Db   
 Chorus: Ace can't read and ace can't write
                            B    
And he sleeps on a bench at night
                           Db   Gb    
A little man the world has left behind
B                          Db   
 He ain't bitter he ain't sweet
                        B     
Makes his living on the street
                        Db    Gb  
Never knowing what he's gonna find
B                                  Db  Gb    
 And this old world has left poor ace behind
