Comment for any corrections and please rate
This is an beautifull and emotional song written by Chris de Burgh.
I've not seen the right chords yet so i've written these chords for the song.
This song is originally played with a 12-snared guitar.
Intro: G
G C G
Looking out on a windy sky,
G C G
Watching seabirds as they fly,
F G
On a summer day, on a summer day.
G C G
And now the sun is here to stay,
G C G
The winter seems so far away,
F G
In the summertime, in the summertime.
G C G
Sitting here with my love tonight,
G C G
News is breaking from the south,
F G
On the radio, on the radio.
G C G
Brother lead and sister steel,
G C G
Are playing out their final scene,
F C G
On the radio, on the radio.
Em Bm
And when you lie beside me soft and quiet in the night,
C G D
I often listen to the rhythm of your heartbeat giving life.
Em D C
You are so precious to me darling, it will always be that way.
G C
Until the final act is over,
G C
Until every man has spoken,
G C
Until every battle's done,
D
Until the day,
Em C Em D Em C Em D
Transmission ends, transmission ends...
Em C Em D Em C Em D G
Oh....Ah.....Ah....Oh...
G C G
Waiting up for a show tonight,
G C G
Coming in via satellite,
F G
From America, from America.

G C G
Whispers from some far-off place,
G C G
Are drifting into outer space,
F C G
From America, from America.
Em Bm
And when I see a shooting star go flashing in the night,
C G D
I often wonder if some other beings also see the light.
Em D C
And are they picking up our signals, as they spin of into space.
G C
Until the final act is over,
G C
Until every man has spoken,
G C
Until every summer's gone,
G C
Until every battle's done,
D
Until the day,
Em C Em D Em C Em D
Transmission ends, transmission ends...
C D
Oooh don't let it happen,
C D D7
Oooh don't let it happen, no, no, darling.
Em D C
I'm always going to love you,
Em D C
Yes, I'm always going to love you,
Em D C
Darling, always going to love you,
G D
Until the final day, until the final hour,
Em D C
I'm always gonna be with you,
Em D C
Yes, I'm always gonna be with you,
Em D C
My love always gonna be with you,
G
Until the day comes down,
D C
The man is on the radio......
G C D
This is station planet earth, we're closing down,
Em C Em D
Transmission ends......
G C D
Station planet earth is closing down,
Em C Em D
Transmission ends......
