Leaving London

        G                Em
There's dark and rolling sea
        G           Em
Between my love and me
       G               D    Em7       G
As I walk through this cold lonesome town
     G                 Em
As I wish for a better day
  G               Em
I need a place to stay
        G               D         Em7      G      G7
if it's just a floor to spread my blanket down

       C                     G
And if I could beg, steal or borrow
  Em        C                 G    D
A ticket on some ole' ship or pla-ane
    C                 G
I'd leave ole' London tomorrow
        C         D             G
And I'd fly to my own true love again

        G               Em
Off and on to change my shirt
        G             Em
Just to wash away the dirt
              G       D    Em7 G
And then it's over to American Express
          G           Em
And not a letter do I find
    G                  Em
She didn't even send a line
      G               D      Em7 G         G7
And I know she has my forwarding address

       C                     G
And if I could beg, steal or borrow
  Em        C                 G    D
A ticket on some ole' ship or pla-ane
    C                 G
I'd leave ole' London tomorrow
        C         D             G
And I'd fly to my own true love again

     G         Em
Last night The Troubadour
       G                     Em
Was so full, they barred the door
      G                D            G
And I sang a song that she Loves so well
       G                Em
And it wouldn't take me long
        G          Em
To make up another song
        G         D    Em7 G          G7
About a sad and a lonesome farewell

       C                     G
And if I could beg, steal or borrow
  Em        C                 G    D
A ticket on some ole' ship or pla-ane
    C                 G
I'd leave ole' London tomorrow
        C         D             G
And I'd fly to my own true love again

      G                Em
At my room I close the door
          G              Em
Spread my blanket on the floor
G              D        G
Feeling like a man in a cell
      G                Em
Sleep finally comes to me
      G                Em
and I drift across the sea
       G                   D       Em7     G      G7
To the waiting arms of the girl I love so well

       C                     G
And if I could beg, steal or borrow
  Em        C                 G    D
A ticket on some ole' ship or pla-ane
    C                 G
I'd leave ole' London tomorrow
        C         D             G
And I'd fly to my own true love again
        C         D             G
Yes I'd fly to my own true love again
