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')
GThat cold North wind they call La Bize
Is swEmirling 'round about my knees
CTrees are crying leaves into the river D
I'm huddGled in this French cafe
I neEmver thought I'd see the day
When wiCnter's here and summer's nearlyD over
Even the bCirds have packed up and gone D
They're flying sGouth with this song C
And my lGove, she too has gCone
She had to fDly, take care
Chorus :
It's such a loGnely sky
ThEmey'll trap your wings, my love, and hoAmld your flight
ThDey'll build a cage and steal your oGnly sky
FEmly away, fly to me, fly when the wAmind is high
I'm saiDling beside you in your lonely skDy
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.
