Skyline Pigeon Chords

(ver. 3)
Elton John
Intro: (E  B/D#  A/C#  B  A  B  E)*

        E               B/D#
Turn me loose from your hands
       A B            E
Let me fly to distant lands
     F#/A#                   A
Over green fields, trees and mountains
E/B     B7         E
Flowers and forest fountains
A              E/B   B7     E
Home along the lanes of the skyway

         E               B/D#
For this dark and lonely room
             A  E/B  B7      E
Projects a sha___dow cast in gloom
                F#/A#
And my eyes are mirrors
       A
Of the world outside
         E/B
Thinking of the way
B7                E
That the wind can turn the tide

          A
And these shadows turn
     E/B    B7   E
From purple into grey

           A
For just a Skyline Pigeon
E/B             B7
Dreaming of the open
E
Waiting for the day
       A
He can spread his wings
    E/B  B7   E   G#7/D#
And fly away again

     C#m D#7            G#m
Fly away skyline pigeon fly
            A
Towards the dreams
       E/B          B7    E    G#7/D#
You've left so very far behind
     C#m D#7            G#m
Fly away skyline pigeon fly
            A
Towards the dreams
       E/B          B7    E
You've left so very far behind

 


            E
Just let me wake up in the morning
       G#m/D#
To the smell of new mown hay
             A                D7
To laugh and cry, to live and die
       E
In the brightness of my day
          F#/A#
I want to hear the pealing bells
           A
Of distant churches sing
            E/B
But most of all please free me
B7               E
From this aching metal ring

    A             E/B              E
And open out this cage towards the sun


           A
For just a Skyline Pigeon
E/B             B7
Dreaming of the open
E
Waiting for the day
       A
He can spread his wings
    E/B  B7   E   G#7/D#
And fly away again

     C#m D#7            G#m
Fly away skyline pigeon fly
            A
Towards the dreams
       E/B          B7    E    G#7/D#
You've left so very far behind
     C#m D#7            G#m
Fly away skyline pigeon fly
            A
Towards the dreams

       E/B                   B7    E  B  
You've left so very, so very far 
C#m  E/B  A  E/B B7 E
behi_____nd.
