I Wish I Was In Glasgow

verse 1 

  G                                        D          C 
I wish I was in Glasgow with some good old friends of mine 
     G              Em               G        D          C 
Some good old rough companions, some good old smooth red wine 
         G                               Em         D   C 
We would talk about the old days and the old town's sad decline 
    G            D           C     G 
And drink to the boys on the road 


[Refrão]
     D                D7               C                G 
That good old place I miss so much now sees some better days 
    C              G             Em     G        C 
Yet still we talk about it as we go our separate ways 
G               Em           G    D    C 
Glasgow gave me more than it ever took away 
       G            D7          C     G 
And prepared me for life on the road 

verse 2 

G                                     D       C 
I was born in Glasgow, in the East End of the town 
        G                  Em                G          D         C 
I would take you there and show you but they pulled the old place down 
    G                           Em     D        C 
And when I think about it oh it always makes me frown 
     G            D             C      G 
They bulldozed it all to make a road

     D                D7               C                G 
That good old place I miss so much now sees some better days 
    C              G             Em     G        C 
Yet still we talk about it as we go our separate ways 
G               Em           G    D    C 
Glasgow gave me more than it ever took away 
       G            D7          C     G 
And prepared me for life on the road 

verse 3 

G                                   D        C 
I belong to Glasgow, that's how the old song ran 
    G            Em          G        D         C 
Ask anyone who's been there, you will understand 
        G                                 Em      D        C 
You can take the man from Glasgow but not Glasgow from the man 
      G             D           C      G 
It prepares you for life on the road

     D                D7               C                G 
That good old place I miss so much now sees some better days 
    C              G             Em     G        C 
Yet still we talk about it as we go our separate ways 
G               Em           G    D    C 
Glasgow gave me more than it ever took away 
       G            D7          C     G 
And prepared me for life on the road
