[D#m]
[Fm]
[D]
I'll never [A] forget the [G] walk to [D] the station [G] Me [D] with your suitcase being brotherly and
[A]
strong [Dm] And trying to [D] make light of [C#m] the whole [Bm]
situation
In mild [D]
conversation [A] we moved through [G] the straw
[A]
And above all the roar [G] of the town [D] was the blue scarf
[G] I could hear the [D] birds singing for the joy of [A] the day
But there was [G] no help [E] from the city [Bm] forthcoming
[G] No [D] sympathy numbing [B] your [G] going away
[A]
And you with your bright [G] eyes and best [D] dress for travelling
[G] Me [D] in my work clothes unshaven [A] and plain
Oh I fully [G]
intended [E] to put [Bm] in the half day
[G] But my [D] good intentions went [A] with you [G] on the train
[E]
[G] And I'll [A] never look back [G] as the train [A] left the station
[G] I'll stow over [D] the roadway and walk [A] to the park
And there [G] in a bar [B] an old [Bm] man was singing
[G] And I sat [A] there drinking until it [G] got dark
[E] [B]
Until it got [D] dark

[A] [G]
[A]
[E] [D] And outside [A] the trees [G] they grew starlings [E] like apples
[G] Their hustle and [D] chatter not dampened by [A] the rain
They washed [G] down the pavements [B] and into [Bm] the gutters
And [G] soaked through my [A] clothes as [B] I set [G] out again
[E]
[A] And above me the stars [G] were hidden [D] by rain clouds
[G] The song of [A] the old man still locked in my brain
And all [G] emigration [E] the curse of [Bm] a nation
The [D] setting now fitting [A] his sad sweet [D] refrain
