Don McLean, Castles In The Air Tabs

E                         E7 
And if she asks you why  
             A                  E                      F#m7 
you can tell her that I told you that I'm tired 
    B7                E                F#m7 
of castles in the air I've got a dream 
  B7                     E                        F#m7 
I want the world to share and castle walls 
       B7                 E     E7  E6  E 
just lead me to despair 
 
E                     E7 
Hills of forest green 
                A                      E                               F#m7 
where the mountains touch the sky a dream come true 
    B7                   E                  F#m7 
I'll live there 'till I die I'm asking you 
    B7              E                        F#m7 
to say my last goodbye the love I knew 
       B7                E     E7  E6  E 
ain't worth another try  
           F#m7                      B7                   E 
    Save me from all the trouble and the pain 
                    A           A/G#   F#m7    F#7 B7     F#m7 B7 F#m7 B7 
    I know I'm weak but I can't face that girl again 
    F#m7                     B7                    E 
    Tell her the reasons why I can't remain 
                        A     E       F#m7   F#7         B7  F#m7 B7 Fm7  B7 
    Perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain       
E                             E7 
But how can words express  
               A                   E                   F#m7 
the feel of sunlight in the morning in the hills 
         B7            E            F#m7 
away from city strife I need a 
            B7                 E               F#m7 
conutry woman for my wife I'm city born 
        B7                   E     E7   E6  E 
but I love the country life 
 
E                      E7 
For I can not be part 
          A                E                   F#m7 
of her cocktail generation partners waltz 
   B7               E                       F#m7 
Devoid of all romance the music playes 
       B7                 E                        F#m7 
and everyone must dance I'm bowling out 
  B7                  E   E7      E6  E 
I need a second chance 
  
Refrao 
 
E                           E7 
And if she asks you why...
