Intro
Dadd9 C Bm Em A Dadd9 C
D
That cold North wind they call "La Bise"
F#7
Is swirling 'round about my knees
Bm Em A
Trees are crying leaves into the river
D
I'm huddled in this French cafe
F#7
I never thought I'd see the day
Bm Em A
When winter's here and summer's nearly over
G A
Even the birds have packed up and gone
D G
They're flying south with this song
D G
And my love, she too has gone
A
She had to fly, take care
CHORUS:
D
It's such a lonely sky
Bm Em A
They'll trap your wings, my love, and hold your flight
D Bm
They'll build a cage and steal your only sky
Em
Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high
A D Bm Em A D
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
D
The old cathedral lights are low
F#7
She and I, we'd often go there
Bm Em A
To admire and sometimes kneel in prayer
D
Lords and ladies lying in stone
F#7
Hand in hand from long ago
Bm Em A
Though their hands are cold, their love's forever
G A
Even the choir rehearses those songs
D G
For Christmas is not long
D G
And we may sing our song
A
She had to fly, out there
CHORUS: (# fade towards end #)
D
It's such a lonely sky
Bm Em A
They'll trap your wings, my love, and hold your flight
D Bm
They'll build a cage and steal your only sky
Em
Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high
A D Bm
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
Em
Fly away, fly to me, and if you need my love
A D Bm
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
Em
A D Bm
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky

I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky

I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
02. This Song For You 4:14
E C#7
Hello darling, this is the army,
F#m
I've just got the time to write,
B
Today we attack, there's no turning back,
E A E B
The boys they're all ready for the fight,
E C#7
Yes, I'm well but this place is like hell,
F#m
They call it Passchendaele,
B
In nineteen seventeen the war must be ending,
E A E
The General said this attack will not fail,
A G#
So I'm writing down this simple little melody
C#m G#m F#m G#
When you play it my love, think of me...
F#m E B E F#m
We'll be together in this song for you,
B E C#7 F#m B E A E
And it goes La la la...
B E C#7 F#m B E A E B
Sing it darling, La la la...
E C#7
They got old Bill and the Sergeant is still out there,
F#m
Wounded in some shellhole,
B
They say this war will end all wars,
E A E B
Oh God I really hope it will,
E C#7
Oh how's old England, are they still singing
F#m
Those songs that we loved to sing,
B
When all this is over, we'll go sailing in Dover,
E A E
Catching fish like we used to with a string,
A G#
Oh I miss you, I miss you, I miss you so!
C#m G#m F#m G#
If they get me my love you will know...
F#m E B E F#m
We'll always be together in this song for you...
B E C#7 F#m B E A E
And it goes La la la...
B E C#7 F#m B E A E B E C#7 F#m B E A E B E C#7 F#m B E A E B
I have to go now...
03. Patricia the Stripper 3:30
Capo 5
D F#7
Dennis is a menace with his 'anyone for tennis?'
Bm D7
and beseeching me to come and keep the score.
G Gm
And Maud says, 'Oh Lord, I'm so terribly bored.
D Bm E7
I really can't stand it anymore.'
A7 D F#7
I'm going out to dinner with a gorgeous singer
Bm D7
to a little place I found down by the quay,
G Gm
her name is Patricia, she calls herself Delicia,
D Bm E7 A
and the reason isn't very hard to see.
D F#7
She says 'God made her a sinner just to keep fat man thinner,
Bm D7
as they tumble down in heaps before her feet.
G Gm
They hang around in groups like battle weary troops,
D Bm E7 A
one can often see them queue right down the street.
G F#7
You see, Patricia (or Delicia) not only is a singer,
Bm E7 A7
she also removes all her clothing - - -
G A D G D
for Patricia is the best stripper in to....wn.
A7 D B7
And with a swing of her hips she started to strip,
Em A7
to tremendous applause she took of her drawers,
D B7
and with a lick of her lips she undid all her clips,
Em A
and threw it all in the air, everybody stared !
G F#7
And as the last piece of clothing fell on the floor,
D B7
the police were banging on the door,
Em A D G
on a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty- f...our.
D A
Take it away boys!
D B7 Em A7 D B7 Em A D
A7 D F#7
But poor Patricia was arrested and everyone detested
Bm D7
the manner in which she was exposed.
G Gm
Later on in court, well, everybody thought
D Bm E A
a summer run in jail would be proposed.
G F#7
But the judge said, “Patricia, or may I say Delicia,
Bm E7 A7
the facts of this case lie before me. Case dismissed !
G A D G D
This girl was in her working clo.....thes !!”
A7 D B7
And with a swing of her hips she started to strip,
Em A7
to tremendous applause she took of her drawers,
D B7
and with a lick of her lips she undid all her clips,
Em A
and threw it all in the air, and everybody stared !
G F#7
And as the last piece of clothing fell on the floor,
D B7
the police were yelling out the door,
Em A D B7
on a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty- f...our.
Em A7 D G D
On a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty-four. Oh yeah !

CAPO 5
Verse1:
Bm D A Bm
B spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar,
D A G G A
'twas light years of time since his mission did start
Bm F#m G Bm
And over a village he halted his craft,
D A G G A Bm
And it hung in the sky like a star, just like a star.
Verse2:
Bm D A Bm
He followed a light and came down to a shed,
D A G G A
Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed,
Bm F#m G Bm
B bright light of silver shone round his head,
D A G G A Bm
And he had the face of an angel, and they were afraid.
Verse3:
Bm D A Bm
Then the stranger spoke, he said "Do not fear,
D A G G A
I come from a planet a long way from here,
Bm F#m G Bm
And I bring a message for mankind to hear",
D A G G A Bm
And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air.

And it went La, la, la, La, la, la, La, la, la, La,
D A G G A
La, la, la, La, la, la, La,

D A G
oh, oh, oh.
Verse4:
Bm D A Bm
This lovely music went trembling through the ground,
D A G G A
And many were wakened on hearing that sound,
Bm F#m G Bm
And travellers on the road, the village they found,
D A G G A Bm
By the light of that ship in the sky, which shone all around.
Verse5:
Bm D A Bm
And just before dawn at the paling of the sky,
D A G G A
The stranger returned and said "Now I must fly,
Bm F#m G Bm
When two thousand years of your time has gone by,
D A G G A Bm
This song will begin once again, to a babys cry".
Final Chorus:
G A Bm F#m G Bm
And it went La, la, la, La, la, la, La, la, la, La,
D A G G A
La, la, la, La, la, la, La,
Bm F#m G Bm
La, la, la, La, la, la, La, la, la, La,
D A G G A Bm
Peace and goodwill to all of men, and love for the child.
G A Bm F#m G Bm
And I hear La, la, la, La, la, la, La, la, la, La,

This song will begin once again, to a babys cry".

La, la, la, La, la, la, La, la, la, La,

This song will begin once again, to a babys cry".

I left my love by the sea
A D E Esus2
Dreaming I could sing my songs in the city
A D
I thought the streets of London
A D
Would be paved with gold
A D
But the only gold was in the setting sun
E A
And these city nights are so cold

And you know that feeling when you've been too long

And you wanna go home and it's so strong

06. The Painter 4:20
F#
I'd like you to meet my last queen,
G# C#
Over there large as life,
F# B
She's been hanging there for almost a week,
G# C#
My poor late wife,
F#
What do think of the colour of her skin,
B
It has the bloom of a rose,
F#
You see she begged me to bring a certain painter in,
G# C#
And for that picture in her bedroom she would pose,
B
Well after a while he was driving me mad,
F#
As you could well understand,
G#
Sitting in there, day after day,
C#
With my wife in the palm of his hand,
F#
It was "Madam please do this and Madam please do that",
C#
You've never heard such display,
But he didn't mind he was taking his time,
D E F# C#
It was me that had to pay,
F#
"Oh Madam I think we should take a walk in the woods,
C#
You understand it's the light",
And did I mind, no, I was so kind when they,
D E F#
Came back in the middle of the night,
D E F# B F# B
And I swear I'll take care of the painter, oh the painter,
F#
Well as you can see it was hard for me,
B
But something has to be done,
F# G#
She only has eyes for him and his lies, and as for me,
C#
Not a glance, not a single one,
B
My orders were severe and she disappeared,
F#
It really was such a shame,
G#
And when they told me she was dead I broke down and said,
C#
"It's that painter, it's him, he's to blame,"
F#
With his "Madam please do this and Madam please do that",
C#
You've never heard such display,
But he didn't mind he was taking his time,
D E F# C#
It was me that had to pay,
F#
"Oh Madam I think we should take a walk in the woods,
C#
You understand it's the light",
And did I mind, no, I was so kind when they,
D E F#
Came back in the middle of the night,
D E F# B
And I hope it's the rope for the painter,
D E F# B
When he's found, it's hellbound for the painter,
F# B
I'll get that painter...

08. The Tower 5:22
CBPO 5th - A beautiful ballad
D - Dmaj7 - G - D
D Dmaj7
1. B great lord came walking through the forest one morning
G D
with a weapon in his hand
Dmaj7
rich was his castle, he lacked for nothing
G A
killing was his plan.
Bm F#m
When a white bird flew by, she fell from the sky,
G D Em A D
nothing was found, only blood on the ground, she was gone.
D Dmaj7
2. Cursing his fortune, he turned to the forest
G D
to kill once again.
D Dmaj7
Standing before him was a lovely young woman
G A
with her head hung in pain.
Bm F#m
When he saw her, his eyes were filled with desire,
G D Em A
he said, "I must have her, she must be mine !
D - G - A
She will be mine !"
D Dmaj7
3. He offered her silver, he offered her gold,
G D
but she threw it on the ground.
D Dmaj7
He fell to his knees and he begged her, "Oh please,
G A
come with me, what you wish will be found."
Bm F#m
She said, "Sir, I'll go if you'll put up your bow,
G D Em A
spare these creatures, leave them in peace.
F#
You have no need.”
Em A D
But her words were lost in the wind,
G D A
his eyes were fixed on a queen.
Bm F#m Em A D
And all he saw was a woman but all she was, was a dream.
G A F# Bm G D A - A7
Ah ah, ah ah, la la la, la la la, la.
Bm F#m Em A D
And all he saw was a woman but all she was, was a dream.
D Dmaj7
4. He took her and bound her with ropes tied around her,
G D
to his castle he did ride.
D Dmaj7
In a wood was a bower where stood an old tower,
G A
and he threw her deep inside.
Bm F#m
Then the birds left the sky and a terrible cry,
G D Em A
brought thunder and lightning, rain falling down,
D
tears on the ground.
D Dmaj7
5. All through the days on her face he would gaze,
G D
for she was lovely as the spring.
D Dmaj7
No words would she speak but, “Leave them in peace!”
G A
And some sad lament she would sing.
Bm F#m
Oh, one day by the door, at the window he saw
G D Em A
a single white feather lying on the floor :
D - G
She was there no more.
A D Dmaj7
6. Now that great lord is dying, his cold heart is crying,
G D
for the love of a girl,
D Dmaj7
for many an hour he has wept on the tower,
G A
for she meant more than the world.
Bm F#m
But once in the sky a white bird flew by,
G D Em A
he lifted his hands, he cried out in pain :
F#
“Come back again !”
Em A D
But his words were lost in the wind,
G D A
his castle was built upon sand.
Bm F#m Em A D
All he has is a memory, and all he yearns is her hand.
G A F# Bm G D A - A7
Ah ah, ah ah, la la la, la la la, la.
Bm F#m Em A D
All he has is this memory, and all he yearns is her hand.
09. Just Another Poor Boy 4:46
A D A D A D A
A F#m D E A
He was but a traveller on the lonely road of life,
A F#m Bm E
she, her name was Mary, a lady of the night.
D E C#7 F#m
She found him lying in that road, on a winter's night so cold,
Bm E A D E A D E
just another poor boy, treat him ri.......ght.
A F#m D E A
She saw that he was hungry and gave him food to eat,
A F#m Bm E
she knew that he was weary and he had no place to sleep.
D E C#7 F#m
She took him home to her own bed, she lay down his wounded head,
Bm E A D E A C#7
and washed away the world from his hands and his fee......t.
F#m E D
He was just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
A E F#m E D E
when he cried out in his sleep she held him tight.
F#m E D
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
A E F#m E D
and she gave him love and comfort through the night,
F#m E D A E F#m E D A D A
till the morning’s light.
A F#m D E A
At night she sat beside him, by the fire he would talk,
A F#m Bm E
he said all men were brothers and that love could conquer all,
D E C#7 F#m
Many gathered round to hear, many for his life did fear,
Bm E A D E A D E
in troubled times like these men seldom talk....ed.
A F#m Bm E
Oh, they came to him one morning at the breaking of the day,
A F#m Bm E
she woke to hear him calling as they carried him away.
D E
Accusing him of spreading lies and hate,
C#7 F#m
his public meetings were a danger to the state,
D E F#
some soldier said "Who was he anyway?"
G#m F# E
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
B F# G#m F# E F#
and the tears were falling from her face like rain.
G#m F# E
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
B F# G#m F# E
and they hung him on the hillside far away.
G#m
And on the ground she lay,
F# E B F# G#m F# E
do do do do do, poor boy, do do do do do.
G#m F# G#m F# G#m F# G#m F# G#m
Oh, my Lord!
F# G#m F# G#m F# G#m E F#
Oh, my Lo.......rd! Oh, my Lord! O..h !
G#m F# E
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
B F# G#m F# E F#
and the tears were falling from her face like rain.
G#m F# E
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
B F# G#m F# E F#
and they hung him on the hillside far away.
G#m F# E
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
B F# G#m F# E
and she never dreamed she'd see his face again !
