Tom: G
G Em C D
You always were a city kid though you were country raised
G Em C D
And back in some forgotten time we shared the cold north days.
G Em C D
But the simple life was not your style and you just had to escape
G C Bm Am D G G4 G G9
So it's goodbye to my lady of the islands.
G Em
On Remembrance Day the bands all played;
C D
The bells pealed throught the park.
G Em C D
And you lay there by the "Do Not" signs and shamed them with your spark.
G Em C D
Now winter moans in old men's bones as the day falls into dark
G C Bm Am D G G4 G G9
And it's goodbye to my lady of the islands.
Bm Em Am D
It was just like this behind the kisses you so soon swept away
Bm Em Am D
Oh, I always knew that someday you'd be bound to just get pulled away.
G Em C D
The summer sun beats on and on; the shops swim in the heat.
G Em C D
And you're standing by the traffic signs with taxis at your feet.
G Em C D
Well, I know that in your city skin you're feeling more complete,
G C Bm Am D G4 G G9
So it's goodbye to my lady of the islands.

No, I never got the letters that you said you'd send to me

So it's goodbye to my lady of the islands.
