Well, I've roamed about this Earth
With just a suitcase in my hand,
GCm
And I've met some bog-eyed Joe's,
Gm
I've met the blessed, I've met the damned.
Cm
But of all the strange, strange creatures
In the air, at sea, on land,
EbGmCmF
Oh, my girl, my girl, my precious girl,
GCm
I love you, you understand.
Cm
So, reel me in, my precious girl,
G
Come on, take me home.

'Cause my body's tired of travelling
GCm
And my heart don't wish to roam. No, no.

I have wandered, I have rambled
I have crossed this crowded sphere,
ADm
And I've seen a mass of problems
A
That I long to disappear.
Dm
Now, all I have's this anguished heart,
ADm
For you have vanished too.

Em
Because love, it stays within you,
B
It does not wash up on a shore.
Em
But a fighting man forgets each cut
E
Each knock, each bruise, each fall,

But a fighting man cannot forget
