Oh...
VERSE 1
C Em Am F C
It won't be long before your train arrives at rainy Waterloo.
Em Am
It won't be long before you're leaving-
F C
You're leaving.
Em
And I'm jealous of your shoes,
Am F C
they take you step by step away from me.
Em Am
I'm jealous of this railway station-
F
Does that make me crazy?
PRECHORUS 1
Em
And my worn out love-
F Em Am
Like the worn out strings on my favorite guitar.
F Em F C
And I'm all out of words to make it better.
CHORUS
Em Am
There'll be no one to fight with now, you're leaving-
F C
No one to believe in.
Em Am
There'll be no one to dry your eyes at midnight,
F
On the doorsteps of London.
C
No more tender goodbyes,
Em
No more wrong; no more right.
Am F C
No more falling asleep to the sweetest lullaby.
Em Am
La la la, la la la, la-
F
La la la, la la la, la.
C Em Am F
VERSE 2
C Em Am F C
I'm jealous of that dress that kisses you in places they don't see.
Em Am F C
I'm jealous of the plane you're boarding, mmm.
Em Am F C
And I despise the view from way up there that leaves me down below.
Em Am F
I can't believe you're really leaving - Are you really leaving?

La la la, la la la, la.
