George Formby - The other side of the world

^GNow I had a notion, while ^Emcrossing the ocean, That the ^Gworld was anything but ^Amsmall. But when I ^D7landed here, it was ^Gsoon very ^Emclear, That it's n^Dot so ^A7big after ^D7all, Cos there's your ^Gown kith and kin there to w^Emelcome you in, On the ^Gother side of the ^Amworld, There's the same kindly folk, who crack the ^D7same kind of joke, On the other side of the ^Gworld And ^D7if you ^Ggo for a ^G7stroll you'll see a f^Clag on the pole, and meet the ^A7People who kept it unf^D7urled And when a ^Gcouples honey ?^D7?doving it's the ^Gsame old kind of ^E7loving, On the ^A7other s^D7ide of the ^Gworld^D

^GThough we're miles from our shore its like ^Emliving next door, On the ot^Gher side of the ^Amworld, We've the same kind of names and play the^D7 same kind of games, On the other side of the ^Gworld And when the t^Grouble is t^G7hick, like glue to - ^Cgether we'll stick, And we'll ^A7keep the old banner u^D7nfurled So it's a ^Gvery happy m^D7eeting and I b^Gring a special gre^E7eting, From the o^A7ther s^D7ide of the w^Gorld

So it's a ^Gvery happy m^D7eeting and I b^Gring a special gre^E7eting, From the o^A7ther s^D7ide of the w^Gorld
