Leaving London 
9
 

       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 

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
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
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
