Verse: 
A5                     G5            A5 
ribbons of love please keep me true sane 
F5             C5           A5 
until I reach home on the morrow 
A5             G5      A5 
never never to wander again 
    F5            C5        A5 
i'm weak and I'm weary of sorrow 
 
Chorus: 
C5                     G5        A5 
london to dublin, australia to perth 
  F5                    C5           A5 
i gazed at your sky, I tasted your earth 
F5                     C5           A5 
sung out my heart for what it was worth 
G5                   A5 
never again shall I ramble 
 
Verse: 
there's nowhere left in this world where to go 
my arms, my legs they're a-tremblin' 
thoughts both clouded and blue as the sky 
not even worth the rememberin' 
 
Chorus: 
now as I stumble 
and reel to my bed 
all that I've done 
all that I've said 
means nothin' to me 
i'd soon as be dead 
all of this world be forgotten 
 
Verse: 
no words of comfort no words of advice 
nothin' to offer a stranger 
gone the love, gone the spite 
it just doesn't matter no longer 
 
Chorus: 
my sky's getting far 
the ground's gettin' close 
my self goin' crazy 
the way that it does 
i'll lie on my pillow 
and sleep if I must 
too late to wish I'd been stronger 
too late to wish I'd been stronger
