There are ten thousand graves in Hong Kong Protestant Cemetery
      D5                         C5                          F5      C5
Every one of them says "born and died, and the rest might be history"
Bb5                 C5
Walking there I'd cry
       Bb5                C5
For my love was there to lie
Bb5                           F5
I never knew shame to be so refreshing
         Bb5                                       F5
I'd sing Georgia on my mind, she would be "i'd be regressing"

D5    C5
(I'm alright!)
F5     C5
(I'm alright!)
D5    C5
(I'm alright!)

        D5                       C5                      F5   C5
Was the day of the boats for the fellas in coats in the Navy
       D5                        C5                             F5   C5
They'd be all around, change the face of this town cos they're lazy
Bb5              C5
Nineteen-fifty two
        Bb5               C5
was the year that I lost you
Bb5                             F5
I was with the soldiers in the school hall
Bb5                                        F5
Didn't know that you were ill, you didn't seem off

D5    C5
(I'm alright!)
F5     C5
(I'm alright!)
D5    C5
(I'm alright!)

G5               G5     D5     C5       F5                C5
Don't go, China show, new so blue so who's aboard the boats these days
      G5                    D5                F5         C5        
Some people are fixing the terrible mixing the crew of old whose sailors say

D5  G5   F5  C5    D5   G5   F5  C5
*whistling*

      D5             C5                          F5        C5   
Your life might be a mess of lights when you're on your own
        D5                        C5                       F5           C5
But the lights you'll see form a line that'll be pointing all the way home
Bb5         C5
I was here before
    Bb5             C5
My name was on the door
Bb5                                F5
Took a score of years to get to your seat
Bb5                                      F5
I'll send the next in line, he'll be a clean sheet

D5    C5
