Intro
Fadd9 C Dm Gm C Fadd9 C
F
That cold North wind they call "La Bise"
A7
Is swirling 'round about my knees
Dm Gm C
Trees are crying leaves into the river
F
I'm huddled in this French cafe
A7
I never thought I'd see the day
Dm Gm C
When winter's here and summer's nearly over
A# C
Even the birds have packed up and gone
F A#
They're flying south with this song
F A#
And my love, she too has gone
C
She had to fly, take care
CHORUS:
F
It's such a lonely sky
Dm Gm C
They'll trap your wings, my love, and hold your flight
F Dm
They'll build a cage and steal your only sky
Gm
Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high
C F Dm Gm C F
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
F
The old cathedral lights are low
A7
She and I, we'd often go there
Dm Gm C
To admire and sometimes kneel in prayer
F
Lords and ladies lying in stone
A7
Hand in hand from long ago
Dm Gm C
Though their hands are cold, their love's forever
A# C
Even the choir rehearses those songs
F A#
For Christmas is not long
F A#
And we may sing our song
C
She had to fly, out there
CHORUS: (# fade towards end #)
F
It's such a lonely sky
Dm Gm C
They'll trap your wings, my love, and hold your flight
F Dm
They'll build a cage and steal your only sky
Gm
Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high
C F Dm
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
Gm
Fly away, fly to me, and if you need my love
C F Dm
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

G E7
Hello darling, this is the army,
Am
I've just got the time to write,
D
Today we attack, there's no turning back,
G C G D
The boys they're all ready for the fight,
G E7
Yes, I'm well but this place is like hell,

They call it Passchendaele,
D
In nineteen seventeen the war must be ending,
G C G
The General said this attack will not fail,

When you play it my love, think of me...

And it goes La la la...

They got old Bill and the Sergeant is still out there,
Am
Wounded in some shellhole,
D
They say this war will end all wars,
G C G D
Oh God I really hope it will,
G E7
Oh how's old England, are they still singing
Am
Those songs that we loved to sing,
D
When all this is over, we'll go sailing in Dover,
G C G
Catching fish like we used to with a string,
C B
Oh I miss you, I miss you, I miss you so!
Em Bm Am B
If they get me my love you will know...
Am G D G Am
We'll always be together in this song for you...
D G E7 Am D G C G

03. Patricia the Stripper 3:30
Capo 5
F A7
Dennis is a menace with his 'anyone for tennis?'
Dm F7
and beseeching me to come and keep the score.
A# A#m
And Maud says, 'Oh Lord, I'm so terribly bored.
F Dm G7
I really can't stand it anymore.'
C7 F A7
I'm going out to dinner with a gorgeous singer
Dm F7
to a little place I found down by the quay,
A# A#m
her name is Patricia, she calls herself Delicia,
F Dm G7 C
and the reason isn't very hard to see.
F A7
She says 'God made her a sinner just to keep fat man thinner,
Dm F7
as they tumble down in heaps before her feet.
A# A#m
They hang around in groups like battle weary troops,
F Dm G7 C
one can often see them queue right down the street.
A# A7
You see, Patricia (or Delicia) not only is a singer,
Dm G7 C7
she also removes all her clothing - - -
A# C F A# F
for Patricia is the best stripper in to....wn.
C7 F D7
And with a swing of her hips she started to strip,
Gm C7
to tremendous applause she took of her drawers,
F D7
and with a lick of her lips she undid all her clips,
Gm C
and threw it all in the air, everybody stared !
A# A7
And as the last piece of clothing fell on the floor,
F D7
the police were banging on the door,
Gm C F A#
on a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty- f...our.
F C
Take it away boys!
F D7 Gm C7 F D7 Gm C F
C7 F A7
But poor Patricia was arrested and everyone detested
Dm F7
the manner in which she was exposed.
A# A#m
Later on in court, well, everybody thought
F Dm G C
a summer run in jail would be proposed.
A# A7
But the judge said, “Patricia, or may I say Delicia,
Dm G7 C7
the facts of this case lie before me. Case dismissed !
A# C F A# F
This girl was in her working clo.....thes !!”
C7 F D7
And with a swing of her hips she started to strip,
Gm C7
to tremendous applause she took of her drawers,
F D7
and with a lick of her lips she undid all her clips,
Gm C
and threw it all in the air, and everybody stared !
A# A7
And as the last piece of clothing fell on the floor,
F D7
the police were yelling out the door,
Gm C F D7
on a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty- f...our.
Gm C7 F A# F
On a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty-four. Oh yeah !

This lovely music went trembling through the ground,
F C A# A# C
And many were wakened on hearing that sound,

And travellers on the road, the village they found,
F C A# A# C Dm
By the light of that ship in the sky, which shone all around.
Verse5:
Dm F C Dm
And just before dawn at the paling of the sky,
F C A# A# C
The stranger returned and said "Now I must fly,
Dm Am A# Dm
When two thousand years of your time has gone by,
F C A# A# C Dm
This song will begin once again, to a babys cry".

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

Peace and goodwill to all of men, and love for the child.

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

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

Would be paved with gold

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

08. The Tower 5:22
CDPO 5th - A beautiful ballad
F - Fmaj7 - A# - F
F Fmaj7
1. D great lord came walking through the forest one morning
A# F
with a weapon in his hand
Fmaj7
rich was his castle, he lacked for nothing
A# C
killing was his plan.
Dm Am
When a white bird flew by, she fell from the sky,
A# F Gm C F
nothing was found, only blood on the ground, she was gone.
F Fmaj7
2. Cursing his fortune, he turned to the forest
A# F
to kill once again.
F Fmaj7
Standing before him was a lovely young woman
A# C
with her head hung in pain.
Dm Am
When he saw her, his eyes were filled with desire,
A# F Gm C
he said, "I must have her, she must be mine !
F - A# - C
She will be mine !"
F Fmaj7
3. He offered her silver, he offered her gold,
A# F
but she threw it on the ground.
F Fmaj7
He fell to his knees and he begged her, "Oh please,
A# C
come with me, what you wish will be found."
Dm Am
She said, "Sir, I'll go if you'll put up your bow,
A# F Gm C
spare these creatures, leave them in peace.
A
You have no need.”
Gm C F
But her words were lost in the wind,
A# F C
his eyes were fixed on a queen.
Dm Am Gm C F
And all he saw was a woman but all she was, was a dream.
A# C A Dm A# F C - C7
Ah ah, ah ah, la la la, la la la, la.
Dm Am Gm C F
And all he saw was a woman but all she was, was a dream.
F Fmaj7
4. He took her and bound her with ropes tied around her,
A# F
to his castle he did ride.
F Fmaj7
In a wood was a bower where stood an old tower,
A# C
and he threw her deep inside.
Dm Am
Then the birds left the sky and a terrible cry,
A# F Gm C
brought thunder and lightning, rain falling down,
F
tears on the ground.
F Fmaj7
5. All through the days on her face he would gaze,
A# F
for she was lovely as the spring.
F Fmaj7
No words would she speak but, “Leave them in peace!”
A# C
And some sad lament she would sing.
Dm Am
Oh, one day by the door, at the window he saw
A# F Gm C
a single white feather lying on the floor :
F - A#
She was there no more.
C F Fmaj7
6. Now that great lord is dying, his cold heart is crying,
A# F
for the love of a girl,
F Fmaj7
for many an hour he has wept on the tower,
A# C
for she meant more than the world.
Dm Am
But once in the sky a white bird flew by,
A# F Gm C
he lifted his hands, he cried out in pain :
A
“Come back again !”
Gm C F
But his words were lost in the wind,
A# F C
his castle was built upon sand.
Dm Am Gm C F
All he has is a memory, and all he yearns is her hand.
A# C A Dm A# F C - C7
Ah ah, ah ah, la la la, la la la, la.
Dm Am Gm C F
All he has is this memory, and all he yearns is her hand.
09. Just Another Poor Boy 4:46
C F C F C F C
C Am F G C
He was but a traveller on the lonely road of life,
C Am Dm G
she, her name was Mary, a lady of the night.
F G E7 Am
She found him lying in that road, on a winter's night so cold,
Dm G C F G C F G
just another poor boy, treat him ri.......ght.
C Am F G C
She saw that he was hungry and gave him food to eat,
C Am Dm G
she knew that he was weary and he had no place to sleep.
F G E7 Am
She took him home to her own bed, she lay down his wounded head,
Dm G C F G C E7
and washed away the world from his hands and his fee......t.
Am G F
He was just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
C G Am G F G
when he cried out in his sleep she held him tight.
Am G F
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
C G Am G F
and she gave him love and comfort through the night,
Am G F C G Am G F C F C
till the morning’s light.
C Am F G C
At night she sat beside him, by the fire he would talk,
C Am Dm G
he said all men were brothers and that love could conquer all,
F G E7 Am
Many gathered round to hear, many for his life did fear,
Dm G C F G C F G
in troubled times like these men seldom talk....ed.
C Am Dm G
Oh, they came to him one morning at the breaking of the day,
C Am Dm G
she woke to hear him calling as they carried him away.
F G
Accusing him of spreading lies and hate,
E7 Am
his public meetings were a danger to the state,
F G A
some soldier said "Who was he anyway?"
Bm A G
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
D A Bm A G A
and the tears were falling from her face like rain.
Bm A G
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
D A Bm A G
and they hung him on the hillside far away.
Bm
And on the ground she lay,
A G D A Bm A G
do do do do do, poor boy, do do do do do.
Bm A Bm A Bm A Bm A Bm
Oh, my Lord!
A Bm A Bm A Bm G A
Oh, my Lo.......rd! Oh, my Lord! O..h !

Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
D A Bm A G A
and the tears were falling from her face like rain.
Bm A G
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
D A Bm A G A
and they hung him on the hillside far away.
Bm A G
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
D A Bm A G
and she never dreamed she'd see his face again !
