Key: C
Introduction:
C
The cold north wind they call "La Bise"
E7
Is swirling round about my knees,
Am Dm G
Trees are crying leaves into the river
I'm huddled in this french caf`e
F G
Even the birds have packed up and gone,
C F
They're flying south with their song,
C F G
And my love, she too has gone, she had to fly,
C
Take care, it's such a lonely sky,
Am Dm
They'll trap your wings my love and hold your flight,
G C
They'll build a cage and steal your only sky,
Am Dm
Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high,
G C
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky...
The old cathedral lights are low
