The wrong chords were posted here before, about 2 whole steps higher than normal. After watching the JBTV performance after John Henry came out. I'm sure these are the right chords. [Each chord is one measure, except "X - Y" is one measure TOTAL.] Fm Fm Fm Fm Istanbul was Constantinople, now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople C7 C7 Been a long time gone, old Constantinople Fm Fm Fm Fm Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night Fm Fm Fm Fm Every gal in Constantinople lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople C7 C7 Fm - C7 Fm So if you've a date in Constantinople, she'll be waiting in Istanbul Fm Fm Fm Fm Even old New York was once New Amsterdam C7 Why they changed it I can't say, people just liked it better that way Fm Fm Fm Fm So take me back to Constantinople, no you can't go back to Constantinople C7 C7 Fm C7 Been a long time gone, Constantinople, why did Constantinople get the works?
