Lindisfarne - When Jones Gets Back To Town

[Intro]
G Em D G Em D G Em D G Em D G

[Verse 1]
Em D G
The bar is open, but the seat ain't taken
Em D G
It looks a little godforsaken
Em D C G
Kinda quiet since he ain't been around

[Verse 2]
Em D G
He used to throw around a lot of money
Em D G
And everything he said was funny
Em D G Em D G
And we'll be laughing when Jones gets back to town

[Verse 3]
Em D G
I bet he's got a lot of things to bring us
Em D G
Got a lot of songs to sing us
Em D C G
Bet they're saying, he's the biggest thing around

[Verse 4]
Em D G
So, take a beater to the old red carpet
Em D G
Clear the decks and we can all get started
Em D G F
We'll have a party when Jones gets back to town

[Chorus]
C G F
Ever since he went away, we've been staring at our beer
C A D G
Just wondering why things ain't the same around here

[Verse 5]
Em D G
Bet he's gonna have a tale to tell us
Em D G
Better hurry up and get here fellas
Em D G
It's gonna happen when Jones gets back to town

[Instrumental]
Em D G Em D G Em D G Em D G F

[Chorus]
C G F
Ever since he went away, we've been staring at our beer
C A D G
Just wondering why things ain't the same around here___

[Verse 6]
Em D G
But you can talk about your 'Hey, big spenders'
Em D G
You can talk about the Great Pretenders
Em D C G
Me, I'm talking 'bout the boy who wears a crown

[Verse 7]
Em D G
He'll set 'em up and there'll be no last orders
Em D G
We'll be waking up across the border
Em D C G
It won't matter, when Jones gets back to town
Em D G
It won't matter, when Jones gets back to town
Em D G
(Won't matter, when Jones gets back to town)
Em D G
It won't matter, when Jones gets back to town
Em D G
(Won't matter, when Jones gets back to town)
