London Homesick Blues

Written by Gary P. Nunn

Performed by Jerry Jeff Walker

G

Well when you?re down on your luck you ain?t got a buck

    D

in  London you?re a goner now even London bridge is falling down

     G                          C  

you  move to Arizona and I know what

C

and I?ll substantiate the rumor that the English sense of humor is

G

drier than the Texas sand

        Em                        Cm

you can put up your dukes you can bet your boots

        D

but I?m leavin? just as fast as I can now

                

Chorus:

D          C             Em  Am

I wanna go home with the armadilla?

             C             D            G

good country music from Amarilla and Abilene

                C                        D                 G

the friendliest people and the prettiest women you?ve ever seen

Verse 2:

G                                      D

Well it?s cold over here and I swear I wish they?d turn the heat on

D                                             G                                C

and where in the world is that English girl I promised I would meet on the 3rd floor

C                                                    G

and of the whole damn lot the only friend I got is a smoke and a cheap guitar

   Em                     Cm                        D

My heart keeps roamin? my heart keeps longing to be home in a Texas bar

Chorus

Verse 3

G                                             D

Well I decided that I?d get my cowboy hat and go down to the marble arch station

D

cause when a Texan fancies he?ll take his chances

G                                  C

chances will be takin? that?s  for sure

C                                                   G

and them limey eyes they were eyein? the prize some people call manly foot wear

              Em                              Cm

and they said you?re from down south and when you open your mouth

    D

you always seem to put your foot there

Chorus

(Repeated several times)
