(ver. 1)
Gordon Lightfoot
CAPO: 2nd Fret




[INTRO:] C  G  F  G  C  G  F  G

[VERSE 1:]
C   G     F
Hey you, upon this ship of fools
G                C
I have found you bending your own rules 
      G      F                   G
Thank you, I don't mind if I do 
                     C
Dream a while of the loving that we knew


[CHORUS:]
F                C/E
There was such a flaming time 
  Dm7           C
I never will forget
F             C/E
It was all so easy then
     Dm          G
This is my one regret


[VERSE 2:]
C   G           F                  G
Hey you, you're my angel in blue 
              C
Mother Nature saved her best for you 
      G        F                   G
Green grow the lilacs on the wall 
                  C                          G  F  G
Heaven help them, catch them as they fall


[VERSE 3:]
C   G    F                   G
Hey you, angel in disguise 
                    C
What is your angle, what is your surprise 
    G               F                   G
Hey you, you're the fever that is mine 
                        C
What is your game plan, what is your design


[CHORUS:]
  F            C/E
Reality brings mystery
    Dm7                   C
And ne'er the twain shall meet 
    F              C/E
And all of my wild horses
       Dm                G
Cannot pull you off your feet


[VERSE 4:]
C   G    F                    G
Hey you, an angel on my mind 
               C
All around me 'til the end of time 
      G      F                   G
Thank you, I don't mind if I do 
                         C
I'll dream awhile of the loving that we knew


[CHORUS:]
F                C/E
There was such a flaming time 
  Dm7           C
I never will forget
F             C/E
It was all so easy then
     Dm          G
This is my one regret


[VERSE 5:]
C   G           F                  G
Hey you, you're my angel in blue 
               C
I'm entangled, tell me what to do 
      G        F                    G
Green grow the lilacs on the wall 
                  C
Heaven help them, catch them as they fall


[OUTRO:] C  G  C  G  C  G  F  G
