(Ebm7)Ga bey’s com in’, Ga bey’s (Cbmaj7)com in’ to town,
So (Db6)what?
Who (Gbmaj7)cares?
Back on the (Gbmaj7)ship it (Fm7)seemed such a snap: You’d (Gb6)tap a girl on the shoul der, She’d turn a round,
And she’d say: “I love (A9)you.”
But once on (Gmaj7)shore, it’s (F#m7)not such a snap, You (G6)get the cold shoul der, The old run a round,
You’re left with no one but (D9)you.
(Em7)Ga bey’s com in’,
(D9)Ga bey’s com in’ to (Emaj7)town.
A town’s a lone ly (B)town,
When you pass (C#dim)through,
And there is (C6)no
one (Em)wait ing (G7)there (Em)for (Dm7)you,
Then it’s a (Emaj7)lone ly town.
You wan der up and (B)down,
The crowds rush (A)by,
A mil lion (C6)fac
es (Em)pass be (G7)fore (Em)your (Am)eye,
Still it’s a (Emaj7)lone ly town.
(E9)Un less (E7)there’s (Bm6)love,
A love that’s shin ing like a (Eb)har bor (Abmaj7)light,
You’re lost in the (G6)night,
un less (B9)there’s (E6)love,
(C#m)The (G#m)world’s an emp ty (F#m7)place,
And ev ’ry (G#m)town’s
a lone ly town.
