Intro
C#add9 C A#m D#m G# C#add9 C
C#
That cold North wind they call "La Bise"
F7
Is swirling 'round about my knees
A#m D#m G#
Trees are crying leaves into the river
C#
I'm huddled in this French cafe
F7
I never thought I'd see the day
A#m D#m G#
When winter's here and summer's nearly over
F# G#
Even the birds have packed up and gone
C# F#
They're flying south with this song
C# F#
And my love, she too has gone
G#
She had to fly, take care
CHORUS:
C#
It's such a lonely sky
A#m D#m G#
They'll trap your wings, my love, and hold your flight
C# A#m
They'll build a cage and steal your only sky
D#m
Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high
G# C# A#m D#m G# C#
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
C#
The old cathedral lights are low
F7
She and I, we'd often go there
A#m D#m G#
To admire and sometimes kneel in prayer
C#
Lords and ladies lying in stone
F7
Hand in hand from long ago
A#m D#m G#
Though their hands are cold, their love's forever
F# G#
Even the choir rehearses those songs
C# F#
For Christmas is not long
C# F#
And we may sing our song
G#
She had to fly, out there
CHORUS: (# fade towards end #)
C#
It's such a lonely sky
A#m D#m G#
They'll trap your wings, my love, and hold your flight
C# A#m
They'll build a cage and steal your only sky
D#m
Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high
G# C# A#m
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
D#m
Fly away, fly to me, and if you need my love
G# C# A#m
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky

Hello darling, this is the army,

04. Patricia the Stripper 3:30
Capo 5
C# F7
Dennis is a menace with his 'anyone for tennis?'
A#m C#7
and beseeching me to come and keep the score.
F# F#m
And Maud says, 'Oh Lord, I'm so terribly bored.
C# A#m D#7
I really can't stand it anymore.'
G#7 C# F7
I'm going out to dinner with a gorgeous singer
A#m C#7
to a little place I found down by the quay,
F# F#m
her name is Patricia, she calls herself Delicia,
C# A#m D#7 G#
and the reason isn't very hard to see.
C# F7
She says 'God made her a sinner just to keep fat man thinner,
A#m C#7
as they tumble down in heaps before her feet.
F# F#m
They hang around in groups like battle weary troops,
C# A#m D#7 G#
one can often see them queue right down the street.
F# F7
You see, Patricia (or Delicia) not only is a singer,
A#m D#7 G#7
she also removes all her clothing - - -
F# G# C# F# C#
for Patricia is the best stripper in to....wn.
G#7 C# A#7
And with a swing of her hips she started to strip,
D#m G#7
to tremendous applause she took of her drawers,
C# A#7
and with a lick of her lips she undid all her clips,
D#m G#
and threw it all in the air, everybody stared !
F# F7
And as the last piece of clothing fell on the floor,
C# A#7
the police were banging on the door,
D#m G# C# F#
on a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty- f...our.
C# G#
Take it away boys!
C# A#7 D#m G#7 C# A#7 D#m G# C#
G#7 C# F7
But poor Patricia was arrested and everyone detested
A#m C#7
the manner in which she was exposed.
F# F#m
Later on in court, well, everybody thought
C# A#m D# G#
a summer run in jail would be proposed.
F# F7
But the judge said, “Patricia, or may I say Delicia,
A#m D#7 G#7
the facts of this case lie before me. Case dismissed !
F# G# C# F# C#
This girl was in her working clo.....thes !!”
G#7 C# A#7
And with a swing of her hips she started to strip,
D#m G#7
to tremendous applause she took of her drawers,
C# A#7
and with a lick of her lips she undid all her clips,
D#m G#
and threw it all in the air, and everybody stared !
F# F7
And as the last piece of clothing fell on the floor,
C# A#7
the police were yelling out the door,
D#m G# C# A#7
on a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty- f...our.
D#m G#7 C# F# C#
On a Saturday night in nineteen-twenty-four. Oh yeah !

Then the stranger spoke, he said "Do not fear,

I come from a planet a long way from here,

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

07. The Painter 4:20
F
I'd like you to meet my last queen,
G C
Over there large as life,
F A#
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,
A#
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,
A#
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,
C# D# 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,
C# D# F
Came back in the middle of the night,
C# D# F A# F A#
And I swear I'll take care of the painter, oh the painter,
F
Well as you can see it was hard for me,
A#
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,
A#
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,
C# D# 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,
C# D# F
Came back in the middle of the night,
C# D# F A#
And I hope it's the rope for the painter,
C# D# F A#
When he's found, it's hellbound for the painter,
F A#
I'll get that painter...

09. The Tower 5:22
CA#PO 5th - A beautiful ballad
C# - C#maj7 - F# - C#
C# C#maj7
1. A# great lord came walking through the forest one morning
F# C#
with a weapon in his hand
C#maj7
rich was his castle, he lacked for nothing
F# G#
killing was his plan.
A#m Fm
When a white bird flew by, she fell from the sky,
F# C# D#m G# C#
nothing was found, only blood on the ground, she was gone.
C# C#maj7
2. Cursing his fortune, he turned to the forest
F# C#
to kill once again.
C# C#maj7
Standing before him was a lovely young woman
F# G#
with her head hung in pain.
A#m Fm
When he saw her, his eyes were filled with desire,
F# C# D#m G#
he said, "I must have her, she must be mine !
C# - F# - G#
She will be mine !"
C# C#maj7
3. He offered her silver, he offered her gold,
F# C#
but she threw it on the ground.
C# C#maj7
He fell to his knees and he begged her, "Oh please,
F# G#
come with me, what you wish will be found."
A#m Fm
She said, "Sir, I'll go if you'll put up your bow,
F# C# D#m G#
spare these creatures, leave them in peace.
F
You have no need.”
D#m G# C#
But her words were lost in the wind,
F# C# G#
his eyes were fixed on a queen.
A#m Fm D#m G# C#
And all he saw was a woman but all she was, was a dream.
F# G# F A#m F# C# G# - G#7
Ah ah, ah ah, la la la, la la la, la.
A#m Fm D#m G# C#
And all he saw was a woman but all she was, was a dream.
C# C#maj7
4. He took her and bound her with ropes tied around her,
F# C#
to his castle he did ride.
C# C#maj7
In a wood was a bower where stood an old tower,
F# G#
and he threw her deep inside.
A#m Fm
Then the birds left the sky and a terrible cry,
F# C# D#m G#
brought thunder and lightning, rain falling down,
C#
tears on the ground.
C# C#maj7
5. All through the days on her face he would gaze,
F# C#
for she was lovely as the spring.
C# C#maj7
No words would she speak but, “Leave them in peace!”
F# G#
And some sad lament she would sing.
A#m Fm
Oh, one day by the door, at the window he saw
F# C# D#m G#
a single white feather lying on the floor :
C# - F#
She was there no more.
G# C# C#maj7
6. Now that great lord is dying, his cold heart is crying,
F# C#
for the love of a girl,
C# C#maj7
for many an hour he has wept on the tower,
F# G#
for she meant more than the world.
A#m Fm
But once in the sky a white bird flew by,
F# C# D#m G#
he lifted his hands, he cried out in pain :
F
“Come back again !”
D#m G# C#
But his words were lost in the wind,
F# C# G#
his castle was built upon sand.
A#m Fm D#m G# C#
All he has is a memory, and all he yearns is her hand.
F# G# F A#m F# C# G# - G#7
Ah ah, ah ah, la la la, la la la, la.
A#m Fm D#m G# C#
All he has is this memory, and all he yearns is her hand.
10. Just Another Poor Boy 4:46
G# C# G# C# G# C# G#
G# Fm C# D# G#
He was but a traveller on the lonely road of life,
G# Fm A#m D#
she, her name was Mary, a lady of the night.
C# D# C7 Fm
She found him lying in that road, on a winter's night so cold,
A#m D# G# C# D# G# C# D#
just another poor boy, treat him ri.......ght.
G# Fm C# D# G#
She saw that he was hungry and gave him food to eat,
G# Fm A#m D#
she knew that he was weary and he had no place to sleep.
C# D# C7 Fm
She took him home to her own bed, she lay down his wounded head,
A#m D# G# C# D# G# C7
and washed away the world from his hands and his fee......t.
Fm D# C#
He was just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
G# D# Fm D# C# D#
when he cried out in his sleep she held him tight.
Fm D# C#
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
G# D# Fm D# C#
and she gave him love and comfort through the night,
Fm D# C# G# D# Fm D# C# G# C# G#
till the morning’s light.
G# Fm C# D# G#
At night she sat beside him, by the fire he would talk,
G# Fm A#m D#
he said all men were brothers and that love could conquer all,
C# D# C7 Fm
Many gathered round to hear, many for his life did fear,
A#m D# G# C# D# G# C# D#
in troubled times like these men seldom talk....ed.
G# Fm A#m D#
Oh, they came to him one morning at the breaking of the day,
G# Fm A#m D#
she woke to hear him calling as they carried him away.
C# D#
Accusing him of spreading lies and hate,
C7 Fm
his public meetings were a danger to the state,
C# D# F
some soldier said "Who was he anyway?"
Gm F D#
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
A# F Gm F D# F
and the tears were falling from her face like rain.
Gm F D#
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
A# F Gm F D#
and they hung him on the hillside far away.
Gm
And on the ground she lay,
F D# A# F Gm F D#
do do do do do, poor boy, do do do do do.
Gm F Gm F Gm F Gm F Gm
Oh, my Lord!
F Gm F Gm F Gm D# F
Oh, my Lo.......rd! Oh, my Lord! O..h !
Gm F D#
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
A# F Gm F D# F
and the tears were falling from her face like rain.
Gm F D#
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
A# F Gm F D# F
and they hung him on the hillside far away.
Gm F D#
Just another poor boy, just another poor boy,
A# F Gm F D#
and she never dreamed she'd see his face again !
