Chords with lyrics
A augmentedA beautiful song written by Noel Brazil
Standard tuning
C majorC G+G
It reads like a fairy tale
A minorAm FF
And that's what it was
C majorC G+G
Young man in his prime
A minorAm FF
Young girl from the Cross
C majorC G+G
The most perfect of strangers
A minorAm FF
Then the night closed in
C majorC G+G
And the holy ground
G+G FF
Took care of everything
C majorC G+G
Now she was a fine one
A minorAm FF
And he was a handsome man
C majorC G+G
One look was enough
A minorAm FF
And away they ran
C majorC G+G
They spent many happy hours
A minorAm FF
And then the night closed in
C majorC G+G
And the holy ground
G+G FF
Took care of everything
FF G+G C majorC
Oh, what's the use in complaining?
FF G+G A minorAm
In for a penny, in for a pound
FF G+G A minorAm
I remember the loving time
FF G+G C majorC
And nothing else really counts
A minorAm C majorC
And I recall the promise they made
A minorAm C majorC
With a faith I can but admire
A minorAm C majorC
That she'd be the one he adored
FF C majorC FF
And he'd be her heart's desire
C majorC G+G
It didn't come true in the end
A minorAm FF
They went their separate ways
C majorC G+G
He couldn't change what he was
A minorAm FF
She wasn't ready to wait
C majorC G+G
They couldn't live in the daylight
A minorAm FF
They let the night close in
C majorC G+G
And the holy ground
G+G FF
Took care of everything
C majorC G+G
They couldn't live in the daylight
A minorAm FF
They let the night close in
C majorC G+G
And the holy ground
G+G FF
Took care of everything
FF G+G A minorAm
I remember the loving time
FF G+G C majorC
And nothing else really counts
