If you should G# see me jus C# t walk on G# by
But d C# arling, please D# don't G# cry
C# Tonight we'll G# meet, at the C# dark end D# of the G# street
C# G# I usually don't do the key change for the final verse, but it was there in
the original so I thought I'd include it for the purists in the bunch. BTW,
the lyrics may be a little screwy, my favourite version of this tune was
recorded by Richard Thompson and my memory of the words may include some of
his own idiosyncratic choices.
