London Homesick Blues Chords

  			G  
 Well, when you're down on your luck,  
  
and you ain't got a buck,  
  D  
in London you're a goner.  
  
Even London Bridge has fallen down,  
   G  
and moved to Arizona,  
          C  
now I know why.  
  
And I'll substantiate the rumor that the English sense of humor  
  G  
is drier than than the Texas sand.  
        Em                             Em7 
You can put up your dukes, and you can bet your boots  
        D  
that I'm leavin' just as fast as I can.  
  

 G         C             G    Am  
 I wanna go home with the armadillo  
            C              D            G  
Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene  
 C                        D  
The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever   
  
seen.  
  
  G  
 Well, it's cold over here, and I swear  
 D  
I wish they'd turn the heat on.  
  
And where in the world is that English girl   
 G                                  C               
I promised I would meet on the third floor.  
  
And of the whole damn lot, the only friend I've got  
    G  
is a smoke and a cheap guitar.  
   Em                     Em7 
My mind keeps roamin', my heart keeps longin'  
     D  
to be home in a Texas bar.  
  
Chorus  
  
G  
 Well, I decided that I'd get my cowboy hat  
      D  
and go down to Marble Art Station.  
  
'Cause when a Texan fancies, he'll take his chances.  
 G                                C  
 Chances will be taken, that's for sure.  
  
And them Limey eyes, they were eyein' the prize  
         G  
that some people call manly footwear.  
         Em 
And they said you're from down South,  
             Em7 
and when you open your mouth,  
   D  
you always seem to put your foot there.  
  
  
Repeat chorus till the cows come home
