Oh [D]Liverpool Lou, lovely [G]Liverpool [D]Lou
Why don't you be[F#m]have [Bm]just like [Em]other girls [A]do
Why must my poor [D]heart keep [G]following [D]you
Oh stay home and [F#m]love [D]me my [A]Liverpool [D]Lou


When I go out [A]walking, I hear people [D]talking
The school children [G]playing, I know what they're [D]saying
They're saying you'll [A]grieve me, that you will dece[D]ive me
One morning you'll [G]leave me, [A]  all packed up and [D]gone

Oh stay home and [F#m]love [D]me my [A]Liverpool [D]Lou


The tugs on the [A]river are telling me [D]ever
That I should forg[G]et you like I'd never [D]met you
Please tell me their [A]song love was never so [D]wrong love
Just say I bel[G]ong love, [A]  to my Liverpool [D]Lou
