Bb
A grey and dark day in Yorkshire
D Gm
Old man Arthur's drinking tea
C
Thinking of the girls he had
F
They're now just memory
Bb
He lives inside his lonely head
D Gm
His days are nearly spent
C
The sun floods through the cat's whisker
And this is how it went
[Chorus]
F A
Oh darling come back home
Bb
England's grown so cold
F C
And all the village know
F
You were for youth,
A
You scarcely knew the truth,
Bb
Who loved you for your moves
F Dm C Bb
Would never love you when you're old and all alone
[Verse 2]
Bb
Oh, sweetheart darling
D7 Gm
You were England's first romance
C
How the boys all loved you
F
Though I never had the chance
Bb
Then Tinseltown came calling
D7 Gm
And all the village cried
C
To wave goodbye to their honeypie
F C
For Arthur nearly died
[Chorus]
F A
Oh darling come back home
Bb
England's grown so cold
F C
And all the village know
F
You were for youth,
A
You scarcely knew the truth,
Bb
Who loved you for your moves
F Dm C Bb
Would never love you when you're old and all alone
F A Bb A#m Dm C 4x
[Chorus]
F A
Oh darling come back home
Bb
England's grown so cold
