That Western Skyline - The Dawes This is wrong, but it works for me. Corrections are definitely welcomed if not required. chorda A Bm D A [A]Oh, Lou- I'd like to [Bm]let you know... [D]that I do not feel [A]welcome All the birds, the trees, the [Bm]falling snow, [D]no they were not made for [A]me And all this is where her heart resides... we met in California She saw cities, promise reaching through my eyes, and she turned her self away [D]Well how I curse that western [A]skyline [D]And yet I thanked it for my [A]start [D]Oh Lou, though my [A]dreams did [D]not come [Bm]true... [D]no they only came a[A]part So I followed her here to Birmingham... where the soil is so much richer And though my aching pride might guide my hand, she did not ask for me to come So I wait for her all through the day, as if I wait for her surrender And every time I get her to look my way, she says I'm not where I belong But I watch her father preach on Sundays And all the hymnals of my heart But oh Lou, no my dreams did not come true; no they only came apart [C#m]Ohhhh, [A]oh [E]oh [A]oh [D]oh [C#m]Ohhhh, [A]oh [E]oh [A]oh [E]oh [C#m]Ohhhh, [A]oh [E]oh [A]oh [D]oh [C#m]Ohhhh, [A]oh [E]oh [A]oh [E]oh All the snow fall this time of year, it's not what Birmingham is used to I get the feeling that I brought it here, and now I'm taking it away But let's share one more drink together Before I go reload my car An oh, Lou no my dreams did not come true- no they only came apart Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh Take me home... Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
