    Em C G G/F# G D
    I Left my heart to the sappers round, Khe Sahn.
  • Em C D
    And my soul was sold with my cigarettes, to the black market man.
    Em C G C
  • I've had the Vietnam cold turkey, from the ocean to the silver city
    Am F D
    And it's only other vets could understand.
  • Em C G G/F# G D
    'Bout the long forgotten dockside guarantees,
    Em C D
  • How there were no V-day heroes in nineteen seventy-three;
    Em C G C
    How we sailed into Sydney Harbour, saw an old friend but I couldn't kiss her.
  • Am D G C G D
    She was lined, and I was home to the lucky land
     
  • Lyrics
     
    1. She was like so many more from that time on
  • Their lives were all so empty, till they'd found there chosen one,
    And their legs were often open,
    But their minds were always closed,
  • And their hearts were held in fast suburban chains
     
    2. And the legal pads were yellow,
  • Hours long paypackets lean,
    And the telex writers clattered
    Where the gunships once had been;
  • But the carparks made me jumpy,
    And I never stopped the dreams,
    Or the growing need for speed and novacaine
  •  
    3. So I worked across the country from end to end
    Tried to find a place to settle down,
  • Where my mixed up life could mend,
    Held a job on an oil-rig,
    Flying choppers when I could,
  • But the nightlife nearly drove me round the bend.
     
    4. And I've travelled round the world from year to year,
  • And each one found me aimless
    One more year the worse for wear,
    And I've been back to South East Asia,
  • And the answer sure ain't there,
    But I'm drifting north,
    To check things out again.
  •  
    5. Well the last plane of Sydney's almost gone.
    And only seven flying hours,
  • And I'll be landing in Hong Kong.
    And there ain't nothin' like the kisses
    From a jaded Chinese princess,
  • I'm gonna hit some Hong Kong mattress all night long
     
    6. Well the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone.
  • You know the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone.
    And it's really got me worried,
    I'm going nowhere and I'm in a hurry.
  • You know the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone.
