[F#m] [B]
[E] [B] [C#]
[E] And if she asks you why you can tell [B] her that I told you that I'm tired
Castles in the air.
I've got a dream.
I want the world to share in castle walls
Just lead [E] me to [B] despair
[E] Hills of forest green [B] where the mountains [E] touch the sky a [F#m] dream come true
[B] I live there till I die.
I'm [F#m] asking you
[B] Say my last goodbye [F#m] love we knew [B] ain't worth [E] another try
[B] [E]
[F#m] Save me from [B] all the trouble [E] and the pain
I [A] know I'm weak, but I [F#m] can't face that [B] girl again
[F#m]
Tell her the [B] reasons why I [E] can't remain [A] perhaps she'll [F#m] understand
If you tell it [B] to her plain
[E] But how can words express the field [B] sunlight in [E] the morning in [F#m] the hills
[B] away from [E] city spry if I [F#m] need a
[B] Country woman for [E] my wife.
I'm [F#m] city born, [B] but I love the [E] country life
[B]
[E] For I will not [E] be part of [B] her cocktail
[E] Generation [F#m] partners walls
[B] devoid of all [E] romance the [F#m] music plays
[B] Everyone [E] must dance.
I'm [F#m] bowing out.
[B] I need a [E] second chance
[F#m] Say
From [B] all the trouble and [E] the pain.
I know [A] I'm weak, but I [F#m] can't face that [B] girl again
[F#] [F#m] Tell her the [B] reasons why I [E] can't remain [A] perhaps she'll [F#m] understand
