  			Verse: 
Am                     G            Am 
ribbons of love please keep me true sane 
F             C           Am 
until I reach home on the morrow 
Am             G      Am 
never never to wander again 
    F            C        Am 
i'm weak and I'm weary of sorrow 
 
Chorus: 
C                     G        Am 
london to dublin, australia to perth 
  F                    C           Am 
i gazed at your sky, I tasted your earth 
F                     C           Am 
sung out my heart for what it was worth 
G                   Am 
never again shall I ramble 
 
Verse: 
there's nowhere left in this world where to go 
my arms, my legs they're a-tremblin' 
thoughts both clouded and blue as the sky 
not even worth the rememberin' 
 
Chorus: 
now as I stumble 
and reel to my bed 
all that I've done 
all that I've said 
means nothin' to me 
i'd soon as be dead 
all of this world be forgotten 
 
Verse: 
no words of comfort no words of advice 
nothin' to offer a stranger 
gone the love, gone the spite 
it just doesn't matter no longer 
 
Chorus: 
my sky's getting far 
the ground's gettin' close 
my self goin' crazy 
the way that it does 
i'll lie on my pillow 
and sleep if I must 
too late to wish I'd been stronger 
too late to wish I'd been stronger
