Capo on 2nd fret |
Intro: |
And if she asks you why |
You can tell her that I told |
You that I'm tired |
Of castles in the air |
I've got a dream |
I want the world to share |
And castle walls |
Just lead me to despair |
Hills of forest green |
Where the mountains touch |
The sky a dream come true |
I'll live there till I die, |
I'm asking you |
To say my last goodbye |
The love we knew |
Ain't worth another try |
Save me from all the trouble |
And the pain |
I know I'm weak |
But I can't face that girl again |
Tell her the reasons why |
I can't remain |
Perhaps she'll understand, |
If you tell it to her plain |
But how can words express |
The feel of sunlight |
In the morning in the hills |
Away from city strife, I need a |
Country woman for my wife, |
I'm city born |
But I love the country life |
For I can not be part |
Of her cocktail generation, |
Partners waltz |
Devoid of all romance |
The music plays |
And everyone must dance |
I'm bowing out |
I need a second chance |
Save me from all the trouble |
And the pain |
I know I'm weak |
But I can't face that girl again |
Tell her the reasons why |
I can't remain |
Perhaps she'll understand, |
If you tell it to her plain |
And if she asks you why |
You can tell her that I told |
You that I'm tired |
Of castles in the air |
I've got a dream |
I want the world to share |
And castle walls |
Just lead me to despair |
