Intro:

C
Ayy, yeah He, yeah

Verse:
      C
He had stars caught up in his eyes

Chasin' dreams beneath those city lights
          Dm
He packed a bag, said, "It's now or never"
              G
I kissed his cheek and said, "I love you forever"
     C
He left on a Tuesday, wind in his hair

Said he'd find his name somewhere out there

        Dm
But the shine can fade, the streets turn cold
           G
And even bright hearts can lose their hope

Pre-Chorus:
          Em
He called me up just yesterday
          F
Said the gold's not gold, I lost my way

F/G

Chorus:
                    C
He's goin' back to London
                A7                  Dm
Back where the skies still know his name
                            F/G
Back to London, back to the love that never changed
             C
He said the dream was sweet, but it slipped away
             F/G          A7            Dm
And I said, "Baby, I was always gonna stay"
    Dm - D#m - F/G
Back to London
             C     Fm/C
Ooh, back to me, yeah

Verse:
C
I watched him leave with a hopeful grin
                                   Dm
The world was wide, he was divin' in

I stayed behind, held down the Ford
  G
Believed in him when he felt short
     C
The cities loud, but the silence cruel
                                    Dm
Every night, I kept the space for two

And when the glamour cracked at the seams
     G
He found his way back through the in-betweens

Pre-Chorus:
              Em
He said, "The lights don't love you back"
              F               F/G
And home was a thing I lost in the E-Act

Chorus:
                   C
He's goin' back to London
                A7                   Dm
Back where the skies still know his name
                           F/G
Back to London, back to the love that never changed
             C
He said the dream was sweet, but it slipped away
             F/G        A7            Dm
And I said, "Baby, I was always gonna stay"

Back to London
F/G
He

Bridge:
F
Some chase the stars and some hold the ground
Em
Some find their way when they circle 'round
Dm
And when the road runs out of signs
          G
Love's a train that's right on time

Chorus:
                      C
He's comin' back to London
                A7                    Dm    F/G
Back where the skies still know his name
                      C
(He's goin' back to London)
               A7                Dm
Back where the skies still know his name
(Back, baby)
               F/G
Back to the love that never changed
             C
He said the dream was sweet, but it slipped away
            F/G           A7            Dm - D#m
And I said, "Baby, I was always gonna stay"
         F/G
Back to, back to me

Back to me

C Dm G
Yeah, back to London

Back to London

Yeah, back to me
