[Intro]
G Em A7 D7
[Verse]
G Em Am D7
Mr. Blue Melville was a sailor at dawn
G Em Am D7
He sailed on his ship as I walked through the shore
G Em Am D7
He took all the glitter and left me away
G D7 G G7
And Mr. Blue Melville has gone
[Chorus]
C D G G7
The night was brighter when you lingered
C D G G7
And love was a mystery 'till you walk by my side
C Cm G Em
But now my heart's singing and tonight I'll be fine
A7 D7 G
Without you I'm walking back home
[Solo]
