[Ab] _ [Eb] _ [F] _ [Eb] _ [Db] _ [Ab] _ [Bbm] _ [Eb] _
[Ab] I left [Db] my heart to the Zappos [Ab] round [Db] case stand
[Ab] And I sold my [Db] soul with no [Eb] cigarettes to [Ab] the black market [C] man
[Fm] I've had the [Eb] Vietnam [Db] cold turkey [Ab] from the ocean to the [Db] silver city
[Ebm]
And it's only I the vets could [Eb] [F] understand
[Eb] About [Ab] the love for gun [Db] docks I've [Ab] guaranteed
[Db] _ [Ab] [Eb] How [Fm] there were [Eb] no V [Db]-Day [Eb] heroes [Ab] in [Eb] [Dbm] 1973
[Ab] And how we sat in a Sydney [Db] Harbour
[Ab] Her son or grandmother couldn't kiss her
[Bbm] When she was mine and [Eb] I was home to [Ab] lucky land
_ [Eb] [Fm] And she was like so [Db] many more from [Ab] that time on
[Eb] Her [Fm]
life was [Db] all so empty [Eb] until they found their chosen [C] one
[Fm] And her legs [Db] were half-open [Ab] but their minds were [Db] all closed
[Bbm] And their hearts were [Gb] held in fast [Eb] suburban chains
And [Fm] the legal [Db] pads were [Ab] here, I was on payback pay
[Eb] [Fm] And the telex [Db] side of the ladder [Eb] where the gunship was [C] spent
[Fm] And cop cars [Db] make me jump and [Ab] I never [Db] stopped a thing
[Bbm] Oh I'd be going 84 [Eb] feet and [Ab] no big thing
[Eb] So [Fm] I worked across [Db] the country, far and [Ab] everywhere
_ [Eb] Tried [Fm] to find a place [Db] to settle down [Eb] where my next of life would end
[C] I held [Fm] a job on [Db] an auto rick, [Ab] trying to shop as well as [Db] I could
But [Bbm] once a night life [Gb] never told me how [Eb] to spend
_ And [Fm] I've traveled around the world [Ab] for many years
[Eb] And [Fm] each one found [Db] me aimless for one [Eb] more year or worse
And [C] I've [Fm] been back to South [Db] Asia, you [Ab] know the air sure [Db] ain't fair
But [Bbm] I'm drifting off [Eb] to check things [Ab] out again
And [Fm] _ _

we'd [Db] have sickness [Ab] almost gone
_ [Eb] [Fm] And on the 7th [Db] night in August, [Eb] another night in Hong [Cm] Kong
[Fm] And there ain't nothing [Db] like the kisses [Ab] of unadulterated [Db] Chinese presents
[Bbm] I'm gonna have some [Gb] Hong Kong matches [Eb] all night long
[Fm] Well, it's not pain, [Db] I'd have sickness [Ab] almost gone
[Eb] You [Fm] know the last pain [Db] I'd have sickness [Eb] almost gone
[C] And [Fm] it's really [Db] got me funny
[Ab] I'm going all right, [Db] I'm in a hurry
[Bbm] You know the last pain [Eb] I'd have sickness [Ab] almost [Db] gone
[Ab] _ [Eb] [Fm] Well, the last pain [Db] I'd have sickness [Ab] almost gone Yeah, [Eb] yeah
[Fm] You know the last [Db] pain I'd have sickness [Eb] almost gone
And [Fm] it's really [Db] got me funny
[Ab] I'm going all right, [Db] I'm in a hurry
[Bbm] You know the last time [Eb] I had a sickness, [Ab] I was down
