Royal Mile (Sweet Darlin') ? Gerry Rafferty
Submitted by John Daly

Am               G                   Am
I remember the sound of the passing train
Am                        G                   Am
As it rolled through the night in the pouring rain
Am                  G           Em                C
And the touch of a hand and the way she said 'Goodbye'.

Am                    G              Am
And we walked in the sun down the royal mile
Am                   G                Am   
Saw the light in her eye and the way she smiled
Am                   G          Em                  C
And she cried in the night and I heard her say 'Don't go'.

F               G                    C
What can I do, sweet darlin', I don't want to go away
F               G                     C
Looking at you sweet darlin', I know I want to stay
F               G
What can I do, sweet darlin'?

Am                  G             Am
In the light of the day I was rolling home
Am                G               Am
I was thinking of you waiting on your own
Am              G        Em                    C
And I wanted to call but then something said 'Oh no'.

Am                  G            Am
Yeah but now it's a dream, it's a memory
Am               G               Am
But I'll never forget what you gave to me
Am             G        Em            C
I was lost and alone but you made feel ok.


F               G                     C
What can I do, sweet darlin', I don't want to go away
F               G                     C
Looking at you sweet darlin', I know I want to stay
F               G
What can I do, sweet darlin'?

Am       G     Am
Am       G     Am
Am       G     Em    C
         G                       Am
I remember the sound of the passing train
Am                       G                Am
As it rolled through the night in the pouring rain
Am                  G          Em                  C
And the touch of a hand and the way she said 'Goodbye'.


F              G                     C
What can I do, sweet darlin', I don't want to go away
F              G                     C
Looking at you sweet darlin', I know I want to stay
               G
What can I do, sweet darlin'?


Am       G     Am
Am       G     Am
Am       G     Em    C
