[Verse]
D      A              D
London Danny you're a real bad penny
           G                     A                  D
You're the one man that time has taught me I should fear
                                      Em7                 G
For the girl you left behind, she has said that she'll be mine
   A                                   D    G     D
So why'd ya have to come and show your face round here
 
[Chorus]
                         Em7                G
For she always said that time would make it right
          Em7                     A
And now I often wake, to hear her sighing in the night
    D                   Em7          F#m                   G
And don't think I don't know, if you asked her, then she'd go
    D             Em7              G       A       D
Now please, don't try and take her from me, London Danny

[Verse]
           D          A               D
Well, I've learned to listen for your name 'round town
     G                      A            D
When people talk of your success in city life
                            Em7                G
But I can never tell if she hears them talk as well
    A                           D    G     D     A
And rues the day she ever was a poor man's wife
 
[Chorus]
       D                Em7                G
And we always said that time would make it right
          Em7                     A
And now I often wake, to hear her sighing in the night
    D                   Em7          F#m                   G
And don't think I don't know, if you asked her, then she'd go
    D             Em7              G       A       D
Now please, don't try and take her from me, London Danny

         D         A                      D
Well, my hands are black, while yours are clean and clever
            G                A
And there's ways you know to turn her pretty head
          D                          Em7            G
Well, its all that I can do, when my working day is through
   A                                 D     G  D    A
To let her heart beat me to sleep at night in bed
 
[Chorus]
       D                Em7                G
And we always said that time would make it right
          Em7                     A
And now I often wake, to hear her sighing in the night
    D                   Em7          F#m                   G
And don't think I don't know, if you asked her, then she'd go
    D             Em7              G       A       D
Now please, don't try and take her from me, London Danny

London Danny you're a real bad penny
           G                     A
You're the one man that time has taught me I should fear
        D                             Em7                 G

And now I often wake, to hear her crying in the night

Don't think I don't know, if you asked her, then she'd go
