INTRO
C / Am / G / Fmaj7/A
C / Am / G / Fmaj7/A (hangs on)
C / Am
I wrote our names on the sides of the trains
G / Fmaj7/A
In the old Aberdeen yard
C / Am
Thinking one day you'll see, in the city of Marie
G / Fmaj7/A (hangs on)
And return to this broken heart
C / Am
I remember you crying over Ossian's writing
G / Fmaj7/A
As you read his words soft and sweet
C / Am
That was the last time, those were your last lines
G / Fmaj7/A (hangs on)
I knew before you set out free
C / Am
My Charlotte, my baby, my wild valley wind,
G / Fmaj7/A
At night I hear cries from the deep
C / Am
They sing they've seen you, out of the blue
G / Fmaj7/A (hangs on)
On your stairway to the sea
C / Am
So up your river I climbed to your Acadian mind
G / Fmaj7/A
To explain my motive for my deed
C / Am
My unrequited love, your God up above
G / Fmaj7/A (hangs on)
My sweet spirit of the street
INSTRUMENTAL
C / Am / G / Fmaj7/A
C / Am / G / Fmaj7/A (hangs on)
C / Am
I never stop trying, I think of you smiling
G / Fmaj7/A
As I spend my days waiting for you
C / Am
My Charlotte, my baby, my wild valley wind
G / Fmaj7/A (hangs on)
My Joan of the deep, dark and blue
C / Am
I remember you crying over Ossian's writing
G / Fmaj7/A
As you read his words soft and sweet
C / Am
That was the last time, those were our last lines
G / Fmaj7/A (hangs on)
I carved them in the linden tree
C / Am
And, I wrote our names on the sides of the trains
G / Fmaj7/A
in the old Aberdeen yard
C / Am
Thinking one day you'll see, in the city of Marie
G / Fmaj7/A (hangs on)
And return to this broken heart
OUTRO
