SHE'S BACK IN TOWN
(Kitson/Kitson)

Transcribed by Phil Gardner

D
Ferry boats come sailing in,

Night trains to places I don't know,

And by the harbour walls I wait,
                                      G
Through all these crowds her face must show,
             D
Her face will show.


I got a letter yesterday,

I hitch-hiked here three hundred miles,

And by the harbour walls I wait,
                                      G
Until she brings the sun back with her smiles,
                                                D
'Cause she brings it back, the sun back with her smiles.

                A
'Cause now she's back, I'll shout it from the rooftops,
                            G
I'll spread all the news all around,
                                D
She's back, 'cause she's back in town.


And like a fool I watched her go,

And let her chase her foolish dreams,

And now she's coming back I know,
                                          G
I'll never let her go, I've never let it go again,
                     D
I'll never let it go again.


I see a distant light up there,

So cold I shiver and I shake,

So cold beneath this harbour wall,
                              G
Then I know the sun's about to break,
                              D
I know that the sun's about to break.

                A
'Cause now she's back, I'll shout it from rooftops,
                            G
I'll spread all the news all around,
                                            D
She's back, 'cause she's back, she's back in town.
