     G              Em              C                  D
You always were a city kid though you were country raised
      G               Em              C                    D
And back in some forgotten time we shared the cold north days.
           G              Em                     C             D
But the simple life was not your style and you just had to escape
            G     C     Bm   Am     D   G    Gsus4  G   Gsus2
So it's goodbye to my lady of the islands.
 
         G                 Em
On Remembrance Day the bands all played;
         C                        D
The bells pealed throught the park.
            G                 Em                 C                     D
And you lay there by the "Do Not" signs and shamed them with your spark.
        G               Em                     C              D
Now winter moans in old men's bones as the day falls into dark
              G      C     Bm    Am     D     G  Gsus4  G  Gsus2
And it's goodbye to my lady of the islands.
            Bm              Em                  Am               D
It was just like this behind the kisses you so soon swept away
          Bm               Em                Am                D
Oh, I always knew that someday you'd be bound to just get pulled away.
 
      G               Em              C                 D
The summer sun beats on and on; the shops swim in the heat.
              G              Em                 C             D
And you're standing by the traffic signs with taxis at your feet.
             G             Em                C                  D
Well, I know that in your city skin you're feeling more complete,
           G      C     Bm  Am         D    Gsus4  G  Gsus2
So it's goodbye to my lady of the islands.

No, I never got the letters that you said you'd send to me
          G       C     Bm  Am      D       G  C  Bm  Am  G
So it's goodbye to my lady of the islands.
