C

C
Come drive me down to the central station

I hate to leave my river Tyne

For some damn town that's god-forsaken

Fare thee well, Northumberland

Although I'll go where the lady takes me
G
She'll never tell what's in her hand
C
I do not know what fate awaits me

Fare thee well, Northumberland

Verse 2:
C
My heart beats for my streets and alleys
F F/G C
Longs to dwell in the borderlands

The north-east shore and the river valleys
F F/G C
Fare thee well, Northumberland
F C
I may not stay, I'm bound for leaving
C/G
I'm bound to ramble and to roam

I only say my heart is grieving

I would not gamble on my coming home
Chorus:
C
Roll on, Geordie boy, roll

Roll on, Geordie boy, roll
