The Middle East

As I Go To See Janey

The Middle East


Tom: G

            Am          Em
And there’s six Spanish sailors
Am       Em
Drifting aimless
            D    C  Am
Through the moonlit bay
   D     C  Am
Of sweet Marseilles


[Verse 2]
              Am     Em
And there’s a broken feeling
    Am       Em
But nobody’s bleeding
    D  C Am
Any secrets
       D  C Am
To the night


[Chorus]
   D4
As I go
   D   Am
To see Janey
D      Am
She is lonely
       C   Em
In the moonlight
       C
In the churchyard

[Verse 3]
        Am         Em
And the guards are restless
         Am     Em
Thinking of the princess
           D     Am
She’s been shivering
     D   Am
Warm evening


[Verse 4]
         Am        Em
And they say she’s dying
            Am      Em
And all the men are crying
        D         Am
As they raise the flags
       D Am
To the wind


[Chorus]

   D4
As I go
   D   Am
To see Janey
D      Am
She is lonely
       C   Em
In the moonlight
       C
In the churchyard

   D   Am
To see Janey
D      Am
She is lonely
       C   Em
In the moonlight
       C
In the churchyard
