Melba From Melbourne
Written and recorded by Marty Robbins

C F
Once I got a silly notion to go out across the ocean
C G7
The future for me didn't look too bright
C F
So I signed up with a tanker got on board and raised the anchor
C G7 C
Stood and watched the Golden Gate fade out of sight

F
Nineteen days and nights we traveled through stormy seas we battled
C G7
Till we landed in on Australia far away
C F
Far from friends and San Francisco and the Miss I thought I’d miss so
C G7 C
Till I stepped ashore of Melbourne that first day

F C
Then I met Melba from Melbourne she made my heart yearn
G7 C
She made my tears flow like wine
F C
She let me kiss her then made me miss her
G7 C
Cause Melba could never be mine

F
So in love but couldn't get her cared so much I couldn't forget her
C G7
I fell in love just a little bit more and more
C F
There I was just like I started all alone and broken hearted
C G7 C
I recall the day I left Australian shore

F
I was standing there and trying so hard to keep from crying
C G7
The more I tried the more my tears would show
C F
When a soft breeze seem to whisper it's the end you better kiss her
C G7 C
So I kissed her then I turned away to go

F C
Then I left Melba from Melbourne she made my heart yearn
G7 C
She made my tears flow like wine
F C
She wouldn't leave there I couldn't stay there
G7 C
So Melba could never be mine
