Al Stewart - The Loneliest Place On The Map chords
Start Jamming...
[C] This place is [C#] so far [C] away from what [C#] passes for [Fm] civilized life
No shops and no [D#] cars and no [D] city lights
[C#]
[C] Just a river [C#] of stars
[Cm] Over [C#] the southernmost [Fm] oceans of coal a small [D#] group of rocks
[D] seagulls and ice
[C] [D#]
[Gm] some [Dm] ramshackle huts
[Gm] A paper [Dm] in French from long ago
[Fm] A finger [Cm] that juts out [F#] into [G] the foam
[Cm] No books [C#] come this way
[Cm] A few [C#] expeditions that pass [Fm] now and then
They'll be back [Cm] someday
But I don't [D] know when
[C#]
[Cm] It's the loneliest place [A#m] on the map
[G#] Nighttime is utterly [G] blind
[Fm] I came here by some [D#] greatness yet, [C#] and I can't find my way
my [Cm] way back

[Fm] [Cm]
[D] [C]
[Gm] It's all so [Dm] remote
As [Gm] the wintery [Dm] smile that you gave
[Fm] As you flattened [Cm] your coat
[D#] And love [G] was erased
[Cm] So this is [C#] goodbye
I [Cm] [C#] see you silently rowing [Fm] away
the [D#] desolate sky
threatening [D] rain
[C#]
[Cm] It's the loneliest place [A#m] on the map
[G#] Nighttime is [G] utterly blind
[Fm] I came here by some [D#] greatness yet, [C#] and I can't find my way
my [Cm] way back
