[Verse 1]
You sailed away one night in June
I heard you say you would be back soon
But since that day it's been one long loon

[Chorus]
Oh, sweet darling
The mess I'm in

[Verse 2]
I spoke to Jimmy with the big tattoo
Said had he seen any sign of you
He laughed at me and then laughed at you

[Chorus]
Oh, sweet darling
What a mess I'm in

[Bridge]
If I want ya
Do I get ya?
All I needed
Your number
Will you give me
Your number?

When you're near me
Do you hear me?
I can't see ya
But I can feel ya
When you're near me
Can you hear me?

[Chorus]
Oh, sweet darling
Oh, sweet darling
Oh, sweet darling
The mess I'm in
The mess i'm in
Oh, the mess I'm in

[Outro]

Paul McCartney and Wings, also known simply as Wings, were an Anglo-American rock band formed in 1971 by former Beatle Paul McCartney with his wife Linda McCartney on keyboards, session drummer Denny Seiwell, and former Moody Blues guitarist Denny Laine. Wings were noted for frequent personnel changes as well as commercial success, going through three lead guitarists and four drummers. However, the core trio of the McCartneys and Laine remained intact throughout the group’s existence until 1981.
