Castles in the air
by Don McLean
E Emaj7
And if she asks you why
A E Fm7
you can tell her that I told you that I`m tired
B7 E Fm7
of castles in the air, I`ve got a dream
B7 E Fm7
I want the world to share and castle walls
B7 E Emaj7 E6 E
just lead me to despair.
E Emaj7
Hills of forest green
A E Fm7
where the mountains touch the sky a dream come true
B7 E Fm7
I`ll live there till I die, I`m asking you
B7 E Fm7
to say my last goodbye ,the love we knew
B7 E Emaj7 E6 E
ain`t worth another try.
Fm7 B7 E
Save me from all the trouble and the pain
A A(Gbass) Fm7 F7 B7 Fm7 B7 Fm7 B7
I know I`m weak but I can`t face that girl again
Fm7 b7 E
Tell her the reasons why I can`t remain
A E Fm7 F7 B7 Fm7 B7 Fm7 B7
Perhaps she`ll understand, if you tell it to her plain
E Emaj7
But how can words express
A E Fm7
the feel of sunlight in the morning in the hills,
B7 E Fm7
away from city strife, I need a
B7 E Fm7
country woman for my wife, I`m city born,
B7 E Emaj7 E6 E
but I love the country life.
E Emaj7
For I can not be part
A E Fm7
of her cocktail generation, partners waltz
B7 E Fm7
Devoid of all romance the music playes
B7 E Fm7
and everyone must dance I`m bowling out
B7 E Emaj7 E6 E
I need a second chance.
Fm7 B7 E
Save me from all the trouble and the pain
A A(Gbass) Fm7 F7 B7 Fm7 B7 Fm7 B7
I know I`m weak but I can`t face that girl again
Fm7 b7 E
Tell her the reasons why I can`t remain
A E Fm7 F7 B7 Fm7 B7 Fm7 B7
Perhaps she`ll understand, if you tell it to her plain
E Emaj7
And if she asks you why
A E Fm7
you can tell her that I told you that I`m tired
B7 E Fm7
of castles in the air, I`ve got a dream
B7 E Fm7
I want the world to share and castle walls
B7 E Emaj7 E6 E
just lead me to despair.
