Tonart: Bb minor
Verse 1
eyes and a purple heart
I rolled down the national stroll
Dm
And with a big fat paycheck
Strapped to my hip sack
Am
And a shore leave wristwatch underneath
My sleeve
Em
Dm
In a Hong Kong drizzle on Cuban heels
Am
I rowed down the gutter to the Blood Bank
And I'd left all my papers
on the Ticonderoga
And was in a bad need of a shave
Dm
And so I slopped at the corner
on cold chow mein
Am
An d shot billards with a midget
Until the rain stopped
Em
And I bought a long sleeved shirt
Dm
With horses on the front
Am
And some gum and a lighter and a knife
And a new deck of cards
(with girls on the back)
And I sat down and wrote a
letter to my wife
Verse 2
Am
I'm so far away from home
Em
And I miss my Baby so
Dm
I can't make it by myself
I love you so
Am
Verse 3
Well I was pacing myself
C
Am
Trying to make it all last
Squeezing all the life
Out of a lousy two day pass
Dm
And I had a cold one
at the Dragon
Am
With some Filipino floor show
Dm
And talked baseball with a lieutenant
Em
Over a Singapore sling
Dm
And I wondered how the same
Over this Chinatown fair
Could look down on Illinois
And find you there
And you know I love you Baby
Verse 4
Dm
And I'm so far away from home
Am
And I miss my Baby so
Em
Dm
I can't make it by myself
I love you so
Am

Verse 5
Shore Leave.
