Lyrics

(Ebm7)Gabey's comin', Gabey's (Cbmaj7)comin' to town,

(Ab7)So (Db6)what?

(Ab7)Who (Gbmaj7)cares?

(Bbm)Back on the (Gbmaj7)ship it (Fm7)seemed such a snap:

You'd (Gb6)tap a girl on the shoulder,

(Bbm6)She'd turn around,

(Bbm7)And she'd say:

"I love (A9)you."

(Dmaj7)But once on (Gmaj7)shore, it's (F#m7)not such a snap,

You (G6)get the cold shoulder,

(Bm6)The old runaround,

(D6)You're left with no one but (D9)you.

(Em7)Gabey's comin', (D9)Gabey's comin' to (Emaj7)town.

(Em6)A town's a lonely (B)town,

(G7)When you pass (C#dim)through,

(G7)And there is (C6)no one (Em)waiting (G7)there (Em)for (Dm7)you,

(B7)Then it's a (Emaj7)lonely town.

(Em6)You wander up and (B)down,

(G7)The crowds rush (A)by,

(G7)A million (C6)faces (Em)pass (G7)before (Em)your (Am)eye,

(B7)Still it's a (Emaj7)lonely town.

(E9)Unless (E7)there's (Bm6)love,

A love that's shining like a (Eb)harbor (Abmaj7)light,

(D7)You're lost in the (G6)night,

(B7)unless (B9)there's (E6)love,

(C#m)The (G#m)world's an empty (F#m7)place,

And ev'ry (G#m)town's (B9)a lonely (Em6)town.

(E9)Unless (E7)there's (Bm6)love,

a love that's shining like a (Eb)harbor (Abmaj7)light,

(D7)You're lost in the (Gmaj7)night,

(B7)unless (B9)there's (E6)love,

(C#m)The (G#m)world's an empty (F#m7)place,

And ev'ry (G#m)town's (B9)a lonely (Em)town.
