6 6 6 6 6 6
And if she asks you why
-5 5 -5 6 -5 5 4 3
You can tell her that I told you
-3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 3
That I’m tired of castles in the air
3 -3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 3
I’ve got a dream, I want the world to share
3 -3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 4
And castle walls just lead me to despair
6 6 6 6 6
Hills of forest green
-5 5 -5 6 -5 5 4
Where the mountains touch the sky
3 -3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 3
A dream come true, I’ll live there til’ I die
3 -3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 3
I’m asking you, to say my last good bye
3 -3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 4
The love we knew, aint worth another try
Chorus
7 -5 -5 6 -5 -7 -6 6 -5 5
Save me — from all the trouble and the pain
5 -5 6 -6 6 -5 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4
I know I’m weak,- but I cant face that girl again
7 -5 -5 6 -5 -7 -6 6 -5 5
Tell her — the reason why I can’t remain
5 -5 6 -6 6 -5
Perhaps she’ll understand
5 5 -4 4 -3 4 -4
If you tell it to her plain
6 6 6 6 6
How can words express
6 -5 5 -5 6 -5 5 4 3
The feel of sunlight in the morning
-3b 4 -4 4 5 4 4 -3b 3
In the hills, away from cit-y strife
3 -3b 4 -4 -3b 5 5 4 -3b 3
I need a country woman for my wife
3 -3b 4 -4 4 4 5 5 4 -3b 4
I’m cit-y born,- but I love the country life
6 6 6 6 6 6
For I can-not be part
-5 5 -5 6 -5 5 4 3
of the cocktail gen-er-a-tion
-3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 3
Partners waltz, – devoid of all romance
3 -3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 3
The music plays and ev’ry one must dance
3 -3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 4
I’m bowing out, I need a second chance
Chorus
7 -5 -5 6 -5 -7 -6 6 -5 5
Save me — from all the trouble and the pain
5 -5 6 -6 6 -5 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4
I know I’m weak,- but I cant face that girl again
7 -5 -5 6 -5 -7 -6 6 -5 5
Tell her — the reason why I can’t remain
5 -5 6 -6 6 -5
Perhaps she’ll understand
5 5 -4 4 -3 4 -4
If you tell it to her plain
Finish with….
6 6 6 6 6 6
And if she asks you why
-5 5 -5 6 -5 5 4 3
You can tell her that I told you
-3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 3
That I’m tired of castles in the air
3 -3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 3
I’ve got a dream, I want the world to share
3 -3b 4 -4 4 5 5 4 -3b 4
And castle walls just lead me to despair…
