Köln

C Am G G 2x C Dm G Smooth the bricks under her feet C F The curl of her hair on the curve of her cheek Dm G Kneeling she looks up at me C F The old, dark cathedral towering over the street Dm G All we can smell and all we can see C F Every cafe on the long, winding street Dm G Suddenly all of the children will sing C F An afternoon song for the sky opening G We're all watching C Am Gray, part into blue G Stained window-glass hues G Old becomes new C Follow me through Am The back-alley road G Drink the unknown G Honey we're home C You and me lost in the heart of Köln Dm G We'll attend every ballet C F I'll take her hand and we'll dance to the train Dm G Our rooftop flat overlooking the bay C F All of our friends in their sailboats will wave Dm G We'll close the window as it starts to rain C F Listen to water-drops tapping the pane Dm G The sun will set soon and the star-lit champagne C F Until the morning will keep us awake G We're both watching C Am Gray, part into blue G Stained window-glass hues G Old becomes new C Follow me through Am The back-alley road G Drink the unknown G Honey we're home C You and me lost in the heart of Köln C Am G G 2x C
