Hong Kong Cemetry Lyrics by Johnny Flynn

A Larum

0

[Verse 1]
There are ten thousand graves in Hong Kong
Protestant Cemetery
Every one of them says, 'Born and died'
And the rest might be history
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Walking there, I'd cry
For my love was there to lie
I never knew shade to be so, refreshing
I'd sing Georgia on my mind, she would be...
I'd be regressing
[Chorus]
I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
[Verse 2]
Was the day of the boats
For the fellas in coats in the Navy
They'd be all around, change the face of this town
'Cause they're lazy
[Pre-Chorus 2]
1952
Was the year that I lost you
I was with the soldiers
In the school hall
Didn't know that you were ill
You didn't seem off...
[Chorus]
I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
[Bridge]
Don't go China show, new so blue
So who's aboard the boats these days?
Some people are fixing the terrible
Mixing the crew of old whose sailors say
[Verse 3]
Your life might be a mess of lights
When you're on your own
But the lights you'll see form a line that'll be
Pointing all the way home
[Pre-Chorus 3]
I was here before
My name was on the door
Took a score of years
To get to your seat
I'll send the next in line
He'll be a clean sheet...
[Chorus]
I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
