[Intro]
A D A A D A A D A
[Verse 1]
A D Once knew a man who thought he was another guy, A he was livin' a lie. A D He took a chance by roaming the streets in the night, A Till he learned how to fight. D A He met trouble one night, another man with his wife. D A So he brought out his knife, didn't mean to take his life. D E Now he's got to get away, hear him say
[Chorus]
A I'm going down to the Liverpool Docks, D Try to hitch a ride, ain't gonna break no rocks. E D A E And I never had a friend, I never needed one. A I'm going down to the silvery sea, D I'm gonna go some place where they won't find me. E D And maybe I can go where I won't ever have to come A E back again.
[Guitarsolo]
D A D A x2
[Verse 2]
A D He took his time, lived his life alone, A An' his thoughts were his own. A D He lived in a place he'd never heard of before, A In Block number four. D A Then one night at his door, he stood facing the law. D A On the paper he saw, what they wanted him for, D E They're gonna take him back, and he said
[Chorus softly]
A I'm going back to the Liverpool Docks, D Gonna take a ride, gonna break some rocks. E D A E And I never had a friend, but I never needed one.
[turn to full voice]
A Take a ride on the silvery sea, D I'm gonna go some place where they won't find me. E D And I don`t wanna go `cause I know that I`ll never come A E back again.
[Outro]
A I'm going down to the Liverpool Docks, D Try to hitch a ride, ain't gonna break no rocks. E D A And I never had a friend, I never needed one.
