Crazy Nightingale chords by Craig Bickhardt

Chords with lyrics

[Verse]

E MajorE              A augmentedA
Once by the white sea on the rocky coast of Wales
E MajorE            BB
There was a sad sound in the song of the nightingales
E MajorE            A augmentedA
Above the bright fields, yours was the wilder song
E MajorE         BB
From a dark wood, a plaint so clear and strong


E MajorE      A augmentedA             E MajorE
The pale, unfettered breast against a thorn
A augmentedA              BB
How you loved to make sweet music pour

[Chorus]

A augmentedA         BB
Here's to all the hangers-on
E MajorE        BB
Another round of ale
E MajorE       A augmentedA      G# minorG#m
You sang your lonely life away
A augmentedA   BB   E MajorE
Crazy nightingale


[Verse]

E MajorE           A augmentedA
I've heard of one bird who sang to an ancient age
E MajorE           BB
That was in china, he lived in a bamboo cage
E MajorE            A augmentedA
His voice was silver but yours was smooth, warm stone
E MajorE            BB
On the sidewalk singing "Molly Malone?


[Chorus]

A augmentedA         BB
Here's to all the hangers-on
E MajorE        BB
Another round of ale
E MajorE       A augmentedA      G# minorG#m
You sang your lonely life away
A augmentedA   BB   E MajorE
Crazy nightingale

[Verse]

E MajorE
It was always the madness or the drink
     BB
You were driven to
E MajorE
I guess in the end those were the bars
         BB
You were singing through


[Chorus]

A augmentedA         BB
Here's to all the hangers-on
E MajorE        BB
Another round of ale
E MajorE       A augmentedA      G# minorG#m
You sang your lonely life away
A augmentedA   BB   E MajorE
