Lirik Lagu Castles In The Air – Don McLean

[Verse]

E Emaj7

And if she asks you why A E F#m7

you can tell her that I told you that I’m tired B7 E F#m7

of castles in the air, I’ve got a dream B7 E F#m7

I want the world to share and castle walls B7 E Emaj7 E6 E

just lead me to despair

 

E Emaj7

Hills of forest green A E F#m7

where the mountains touch the sky a dream come true B7 E F#m7

I’ll live there till I die, I’m asking you B7 E F#m7

to say my last goodbye, the love we knew B7 E Emaj7 E6 E

ain’t worth another try

 

[Chorus]

F#m7 B7 E Save me from all the trouble and the pain A A/G# F#m7 B7 F#m7 B7 F#m7 B7

I know I’m weak but I can’t face that girl again

F#m7 B7 E Tell her the reasons why I can’t remain A A/G# F#m7 B7 F#m7 B7 F#m7 B7

Perhaps she’ll understand, if you tell it to her plain

 

[Verse]

E Emaj7

But how can words express A E F#m7

the feel of sunlight in the morning in the hills, B7 E F#m7

away from city strife, I need a B7 E F#m7

country woman for my wife, I’m city born, B7 E Emaj7 E6 E

but I love the country life

 

E Emaj7

For I will not be part A E F#m7

of her cocktail generation, partners waltz B7 E F#m7

Devoid of all romance the music plays B7 E F#m7

and everyone must dance I’m bowing out B7 E Emaj7 E6 E

I need a second chance

 

[Chorus]

F#m7 B7 E Save me from all the trouble and the pain A A/G# F#m7 B7 F#m7 B7 F#m7 B7

I know I’m weak but I can’t face that girl again

F#m7 B7 E Tell her the reasons why I can’t remain A A/G# F#m7 B7 F#m7 B7 F#m7 B7

Perhaps she’ll understand, if you tell it to her plain

 

[Verse]

E Emaj7

And if she asks you why A E F#m7

you can tell her that I told you that I’m tired B7 E F#m7

of castles in the air, I’ve got a dream B7 E F#m7

I want the world to share and castle walls B7 E Emaj7 E6 E

just lead me to despair
