Köln

C


[Verse 1]
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


[Chorus]
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


[Verse 2]
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


[Chorus]
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
