[Verse 1]
 
N.C.
               C                   F
I was a sailor first, I sailed the sea.
             C              F   Am G7
Then I got a job in a factory.
                C                     F
Played Butlin's Camp with my friend Rory,
                C                     F   Am G7
it was good for him, it was great for me.
 
[Chorus]
 
C           G/B                 Am      Am/G   F
Liverpool I left you, said 'goodbye' to Madryn Street.
C                 G/B            Am    Am/G     F
I always followed my heart and I never missed a beat.
C           G/B             Am       Am/G   F
Destiny was calling, I just couldn't stick around.

Liverpool I left you but I never let you down.
 
[Verse 2]

Went to Hamburg, the red lights were on.
                C                  F
With George and Paul and my friend John.
              C                    F
We rocked all night, we all looked tough,
               C                F     Am  G7
we didn't have much but we had enough.
 
[Chorus]
 
 C           G/B                 Am      Am/G   F
Liverpool I left you, said 'goodbye' to Madryn Street.

I always followed my heart and I never missed a beat.

Destiny was calling, I just couldn't stick around.

Liverpool I left you but I never let you down.

In the U.S.A. when we played Shea.
               C                F
We were number one. Man, it was fun.
            C                F
When I look back it sure was cool,
               C              F       Am/G  G7
for those four boys from Liverpool.
 
[Chorus]
 
 C          G/B                 Am        Am/G   F
Liverpool I left you, said 'goodbye' to Admiral Grove.

I always followed my heart so I took it on the road.

Destiny was calling, I just couldn't stick around.

La, la, la, la, la, la, La, la, la, la, la, la
C         G/B      Am        Am/G   F
Liverpool!
C         G/B      Am        Am/G   F
Liverpool!

I just stumbled across this song on UG.I hit the video link and was so pleasantly surprized.I got a guitar whjen I was 12 in 1964 and the Beatles took the world by storm and while I still can't play as well I feel like I was with them till today 6/2/2020.They have always been a models for what I wish I could create,A bar too high to hurtle but what a brass ringto reach for.Thanksfor posting this
