(Verse 1)
[G]Maybe I'm a loner,
[C]Maybe I'm a [G]man,
[C]Maybe I'm a [G]fool,
But [D]tried to under[G]stand.
[G]I've been a dreamer,
And [C]I've been [G]around,
And [C]I've spent my [G]time
In [D]many lonesome [G]towns.
(Verse 2)
I [G]used to know a woman,
I [C]used to know a [G]child,
Some[C]times she was so [G]gentle,
Some[D]times she'd be so [G]wild.
I [G]gave her all my lovin,
And [C]I gave her all my [G]youth,
So [C]certain of the [G]future,
So [D]sure we found the [G]truth.
(Chorus)
San Fran[C]cisco Bay,
Where my love and I did [G]run away,
We were looking for a[Am]nother day,
[D7]But we couldn't find the [G]words to say...
San Fran[C]cisco Bay,
All the flowers that we [G]gave away,
Didn't know our sky was [Am]turing gray,
We were so [D7]young in San Fran[G]cisco Bay.
(Verse 3)
So you [G]see my darling,
Just [C]why I've been so [G]strange,
I've [C]had so many [G]heartaches,
It's [D]hard for me to [G]change.
So [G]when you talk of lovin,
And [C]going away with [G]me,
I [C]still can't help re[G]membering
The [D]way things used to [G]be...
(Chorus)
San Fran[C]cisco Bay,
Where my love and I did [G]run away,
We were looking for a[Am]nother day,
[D7]But we couldn't find the [G]words to say...
