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?)
FThat cold North wind they call La Bize
Is swDmirling 'round about my knees
FTrees are crying leaves into the river G
I'm huddFled in this French cafe
I neDmver thought I'd see the day
When wiFnter's here and summer's nearlyG over
Even the bFirds have packed up and gone G
They're flying sFouth with this song F
And my lFove, she too has gFone
She had to fGly, take care
Chorus :
It's such a loFnely sky
ThDmey'll trap your wings, my love, and hoDmld your flight
ThGey'll build a cage and steal your oFnly sky
FDmly away, fly to me, fly when the wDmind is high
I'm saiGling beside you in your lonely skGy
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.
