Version 1
            London Homesick Blues
By: Jerry Jeff Walker


[Verse 1]
G
Well when you're down on your luck you ain't got a buck
   D                                              
In London you're a goner now even London bridge is falling down
    G                            C
And moved to Arizona, now I know why
C
And I'll substantiate the rumor that the English sense of humor is
G
Drier than the Texas sand
        Em                       Eb 
You can put up your dukes you can bet your boots
        D
But I'm leavin' just as fast as I can now


[Chorus]
D          C             C/B    Am
I wanna go home with the armadillo
             C             D            G
Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
                C                        D                 G
The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen


[Verse 2]
G                                      D 
Well it's cold over here and I swear I wish they'd turn the heat on
     Am                          D             G                                  C
And where in the world is that English girl I promised I would meet, on the 3rd floor
C                                                    G
And of the whole damn lot the only friend I got is a smoke and a cheap guitar
   Em                     Eb                        D
My heart keeps roamin' my heart keeps longing to be home in a Texas bar


[Chorus]
D          C             C/B  Am
I wanna go home with the armadillo
             C             D            G
Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
                C                        D                 G    G
The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

[Verse 3]
         G          D           G              D                                               
Well I decided that  I'd get my cowboy hat and go down to the Marble Arch Station
             D                 
Cause when a Texan fancies he'll take his chances
G                                 C
Chances will be takin' that's for sure
                                                    G 
And them limey eyes they were eyein' the prize some people call manly foot wear
              Em                                    Eb
And they said you're from down south and when you open your mouth
    D
You always seem to put your foot there


[Chorus]
  D        C             C/B  Am
I wanna go home with the armadillo
             C             D            G
Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
                C                        D                 G
The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen


[Outro]
  D        C             Em  Am
I wanna go home with the armadillo
             C             D            G
Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
                C                        D                 G
The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen
           C             Em  Am
I wanna go home with the armadillo
             C             D            G
Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
                C                        D                 G
The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen
           C             Em  Am

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
                C                        D                 G
The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen
           C             Em  Am
I wanna go home with the armadillo
             C             D            G
Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
                C                        D                 G
The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen
