SOL DO
In comes the train and the whole platform shakes
RE SOL
It stops with a shudder and a screaming of brakes
SOL DO
The parting has come and my weary soul aches
RE SOL
I'm leaving my Nancy, oh
SOL DO
But you stand there so calmly determinedly gay
RE DO
You talk of the weather and events of the day
SOL DO
And your eyes tell me all that your tongue doesn't say
SOL RE
Goodbye my Nancy, oh
SOL DO
And come a little closer
RE SOL
Put your head upon my shoulder
SOL DO
And let me hold you one last time
RE SOL
Before the whistle blows
SOL DO
My suitcase is lifted and stowed on the train
RE SOL
And a thousand regrets whirl around in my brain
SOL DO
The ache in my heart is a black sea of pain
RE SOL
I'm leaving my Nancy, oh
SOL DO
But you stand there beside me so lovely to see
RE SOL
The grip of your hand is an unspoken plea
SOL DO
You're not fooling yourself and you're not fooling me
RE SOL
Goodbye my Nancy, oh
SOL DO
And come a little closer
RE SOL
Put your head upon my shoulder
SOL DO
And let me hold you one last time
RE SOL
Before the whistle blows
SOL DO
But our time has run out and the whistle has blown
RE SOL
Here I must leave you standing alone
SOL DO
We had so little time and now the time's gone
RE SOL
Goodbye my Nancy, oh
SOL DO
And as the train starts gently to roll
RE SOL
And as I lean out to wave and to call
SOL DO
I see the first tears trickle and fall
RE SOL
Goodbye my Nancy, oh
SOL DO
And come a little closer
RE SOL
Put your head upon my shoulder
SOL DO
And let me hold you one last time
RE SOL
Before the whistle blows
SOL DO
And let me hold you one last time
RE SOL
Before the whistle blows
End: G C D G
