In a Shanty in Old Shanty Town

guitar chords lyrics

The Ink Spots

I'm up in the world,
but I'd give the world to be where I used to be,
A heavenly nest,

where I rest the best,
means more than the world to me.
It's only a shanty
in old Shanty Town
the roof is so slanty it touches the ground.
But my tumbled down shack by an old railroad track,
like a millionaire's mansion is calling me back.
I'd give up a palace if I were a king.
It's more than a palace, it's my everything.
There's a queen waiting there with a silvery crown
in a shanty in old Shanty Town.

There's a queen waiting there with a silvery crown
in a shanty in old Shanty Town.
