    D                A
And if she asks you why
         G               D                 G
you can tell her that I told you that I'm tired
    Em             D                G
of castles in the air, I've got a dream
   Em                 D               G
I want the world to share and castle walls
      A             D     A  Em  D
just lead me to despair.


 D                A
Hills of forest green
           G                   D                G
where the mountains touch the sky a dream come true
      Em                D               G
I'll live there till I die, I'm asking you
   Em               D                G
to say my last goodbye ,the love we knew
       A             D     A  Em  D
ain't worth another try.


Em   G                 A              D
Save me from all the trouble and the pain
            G       Em       G               A    A  A7  A
I know I'm weak but I can't face that girl again
Em    G               A             D
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain
               G      Em           G               A    A  A7  A
Perhaps she'll understand, if you tell it to her plain

     D                A
But how can words express
             G               D              G
the feel of sunlight in the morning in the hills,
  Em              D              G
away from city strife, I need a
         Em           D              G
country woman for my wife, I'm city born,
       G        A       D     A  Em  D
but I love the country life.


    D             A
For I can not be part
        G            D                G
of her cocktail generation, partners waltz
   Em            D                G
Devoid of all romance the music plays
    Em             D                G
and everyone must dance I'm bowling out
   G        A       D     A  Em  D
I need a second chance.


Em   G                 A              D
Save me from all the trouble and the pain
            G       Em       G               A    A  A7  A
I know I'm weak but I can't face that girl again
Em    G               A             D
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain
               G      Em           G               A    A  A7  A
Perhaps she'll understand, if you tell it to her plain


    D                A
And if she asks you why
         G               D                 G

    Em            D                 G

      A             D     A  Em  D
just lead me to despair.
