G Em With a dark and rolling sea G Em Between my true love and me G Em D G I keep walking through this cold hard town G Em While I wait for better days G Em I could use a place to stay G Em D G Or a floor where I could lay my blanket down
Chorus:
C G If I could beg, steal or borrow C G D A ticket on some ship or pla-ane C G I'd be leaving London tomorrow C D G To fly to my own love again G Em Up at dawn to change my shirt G Em And to wash away the dirt G Em D G Then it's over to American Express G Em Not one letter did I find G Em No, she didn't send one line G Em D G Though I know she has my forwarding address
Chorus:
C G If I could beg, steal or borrow C G D A ticket on some ship or pla-ane C G I'd be leaving London tomorrow C D G To fly to my own love again G Em Last night The Troubadour G Em Was so full, they barred the door G Em D G And I sang a song she knows quite well G Em But it wouldn't take too long G Em To make up another song G Em D G For a lonesome and a last farewell
Chorus:
C G If I could beg, steal or borrow C G D A ticket on some ship or pla-ane C G I'd be leaving London tomorrow C D G To fly to my own love again C G I'd be leaving London tomorrow C D G To fly to my own love again
