G

[Verse 1]
     G/A G/B C       D        G
When I   a---wake, I think of you
    G/A  G/B C                       D     
Who made my  heart break and made me feel like a fool
    C                  Bm
You led me on, just to bring me down
    E7        Am
And I fell so low
           D                  Em
So, if the stars are bright tonight
         D      G   C G
I’ll get up and go


[Verse 2]
  G/A G/B C      D              G
O-on  my  way, I walked through town
        G/A  G/B  C          D     
Stopped at   your house, but you weren’t around
    C                 Bm
The lights were on to ward off thieves
      E7                 Am
While you stayed out all night
           D                G
But it was you who stole my heart
         C                 D
When you hadn’t any right


[Chorus]
     G  Em        D        G
It’s my town, but I had to leave it
         Em              C          D
And head South where the climate is kind
         G    Em         D   C       Em A7
And if a time comes when I’m feeling better
        C             D            G       C G
I’ll be back with the birds in the Spring


[Instrumental]
G    Em  D  G    Em  D  G  C G


[Verse 3]
  G/A G/B C          D        G
Paid  my  fare and I took the train
    G/A  G/B C        D     
I’d soon for-get, but now I felt the pain
  C                 Bm
I tried to think of better days
E7          Am
Lying in my berth
  D          G
I pondered revenge
    C                   D
For what it was worth


[Chorus]
     G  Em        D        G
It’s my town, but I had to leave it
         Em              C          D
And head South where the climate is kind
         G    Em         D   C       Em A7
And if a time comes when I’m feeling better
        C             D            G       C G
I’ll be back with the birds in the Spring
