I'm going far away
Far away from poor Jeanette
There's no one left to love me now
Bbm
And you too may forget
Fm
But my heart will be with you
Db Ab
Wherever you may go
Bbm Ab
Can you look me in the face and say the same, Jeano?
Bbm
When you wear the jacket red,
Fm
Or the beautiful cockade
Db Bbm
I fear you will forget all of the promises we made
Fm Ab
With your gun upon your shoulder
Bbm Ab
And your saber by your side
Bbm
You'll be taking some fine lady
Ab Db
And be making her your bride
Bbm
Oh if I were queen of France
Fm
Or still better Pope of Rome
Db
I'd have no fighting men abroad
Bbm
Nor weeping maids at home
Fm Ab
All the world should be at peace
Db Ab
And the right should be the might
Bbm
I'd have those that made the quarreling
Ab Db
The only ones to fight
Bbm
Oh if I were queen of France
Fm
Or still better Pope of Rome
Db
I'd have no fighting men abroad
Bbm
Nor weeping maids at home
Fm Ab
All the world should be at peace
Db Ab
And the right should be the might
Bbm
I'd have those that made the quarreling
Ab Db
The only ones to fight
