Fm   Db   Eb   Db   Ab   Db   Eb7

[Verse 1]
Ab
Almost always travellin'
Db
My jumper's been unravellin'
  Eb                              Db
I snagged it on the doorpost as I left
Ab
No worth in seeing the world alone
Db
Or following the threads back home
 Eb                         Db
Apologising in my pants and vest

[Pre-Chorus]
Fm              Ab
I know you were watching
Cm       Db
I was on TV
Fm                   Ab
I know that you were looking
        Cm   Eb
Out for me

[Chorus]
             Ab         Eb
One of these days, I'll meet you
             Db         Eb
One of these days, I'll need to
             Ab          Eb
One of these days, can I meet you?
             Db   Eb
One of these days
         Ab
You were right, I was wrong
     Eb
I forgot where I'm from
     Db           Eb
On a northern holiday
         Ab
You were right, I was wrong
          Eb
We're all off, come along
     Db            Eb
On a northern holiday

[Verse 2]
    Ab
And I could order sandwiches
   Db
In over forty languages
    Eb                                 Db
But they don't make 'em like you do at home
     Ab
They send us out in thunderstorms
    Db
And send us home in bandages
      Eb                                    Db
Turns out the streets are paved with paving stone

[Pre-Chorus]
Fm              Ab
I know you were watching
Cm       Db
I was on TV
Fm                   Ab
I know that you were looking
        Cm   Eb
Out for me

[Chorus]
             Ab         Eb
One of these days, I'll meet you
             Db         Eb
One of these days, I'll need to
             Ab          Eb
One of these days, can I meet you?
             Db   Eb
One of these days
         Ab
You were right, I was wrong
     Eb
I forgot where I'm from
     Db           Eb
On a northern holiday
         Ab
You were right, I was wrong
          Eb
We're all off, come along
     Db            Eb
On a northern holiday

[Instrumental]
Ab   Db   Eb   Db   Ab   Db   Eb

[Chorus]
             Ab         Eb
One of these days, I'll meet you
             Db         Eb
One of these days, I'll need to
             Ab          Eb
One of these days, can I meet you?
             Db   Eb
One of these days

You were right, I was wrong
     Eb
I forgot where I'm from
     Db           Eb
On a northern holiday
         Ab
You were right, I was wrong
          Eb
We're all off, come along
     Db            Eb
On a northern holiday

[Outro]
         Ab
You were right, I was wrong (one of these days)
     Eb
I forgot where I'm from (I'll meet you)
     Db           Eb
On a northern holiday (one of these days)
         Ab
You were right, I was wrong (I'll need to)
          Eb
We're all off, come along (one of these days)
     Db            Eb
On a northern holiday (can I meet you?)
                    Ab
(one of these days)
