Deburgh Chris

Deburgh Chris - Lonely Sky guitar chord

These are the approximate chords I worked out but I don't think that they're

in the same key of the record. So there's lots of room for refinement.

Anyway, here my version :

*****************************************************************************

Lonely Sky - Chris de Burgh (from the album "Spanish Train" - 1975?)

G

That cold North wind they call La Bize

Em

Is swirling 'round about my knees

C D

Trees are crying leaves into the river

G

I'm huddled in this French cafe

Em

I never thought I'd see the day

C D

When winter's here and summer's nearly over

C D

Even the birds have packed up and gone

G C

They're flying south with this song

G C

And my love, she too has gone

D

She had to fly, take care

Chorus :

G

It's such a lonely sky

Em Am

They'll trap your wings, my love, and hold your flight

d G

They'll build a cage and steal your only sky

Em Am

Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high

D D

I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky

2nd verse :

The old cathedral lights are low

She and I we'd often go

To admire and sometimes kneel in prayer

Lords and ladies lying in stone

Hand in hand from long ago

Though their hands are cold, their love's forever

Even the choir rehearses those songs

For Christmas is not long

And my love, she too has gone

She had to fly, out there

Chorus:

There's a couple other lines here during the fade out part but no new chords.
