Chris De Burgh - Pure Joy
CAPO: 4th Fret
C majorC FF C majorC G+G C majorC
We were talking about how all the years go by
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm
People and places and the march of time
FF G+G A minorAm FF G+G
Only memories can take us back there again
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
Like the day on the boat, beneath a clear blue sky
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm
When out of the sea they came to jump and fly
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF G+G C majorC
Now I understand why my friend said, "Dolphins make us cry"
CHORUS:
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
'Cause this was pure joy, the way they laughed and played
DmDm G+G
Skipping and a-dancing through the ocean waves
FF C majorC E MajorE A minorAm
It was pure joy, for all to see
FF G+G FF G+G C majorC
So why can't we, more often feel that joy of living?
C majorC FF C majorC G+G C majorC
And we were talking about, how in the days gone by
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm
We would believe that all our dreams could fly
FF G+G A minorAm FF G+G
But they fade away, like sunset out of the sky
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
And I was there in a garden, where the children play
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm
Hearing them singing on a summer's day
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF G+G C majorC
Made me realise how soon, we lose that innocence inside
CHORUS:
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
'Cause this was pure joy, the way they laughed and played
DmDm G+G
Skipping and a-dancing on that sunny day
FF C majorC E MajorE A minorAm
It was pure joy, for all to see
FF G+G FF G+G C majorC
So why can't we, more often feel that joy of living?
OUTRO:
FF C majorC G+G C majorC FF G+G
Pure joy
FF C majorC E MajorE A minorAm
Pure joy
FF G+G A minorAm G+G C majorC FF
So why can't we, more often feel that joy of living?
G+G C majorC FF
Sheer joy of living
G+G C majorC
That joy of living
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
'Cause it was pure joy (the joy of living)

Pure joy (the joy of living)

It was pure joy (the joy of living)
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
