Lights Of Cincinnati

Intro:  F  Bb  F  Bb

F                 Gm
I remember still, I guess I always 
will
C7                             
That winters day I took the west 
         F
bound flight,
   C7                              
As I looked down from the plane you
        Am
 were standing in the rain,
    Bb                 Dm         
You waved goodbye till I was out 
  D#    C
of sight.

Chorus:
    F     C        Bb            
And I can see them shining 
      Bb6             F
through the willows and the pines,
    Bb             Am7           
The lights of Cincinnati, oh, so 
Bbmaj7       F
many miles behind,
        Bbmaj7         F          
I could build myself a new life 
  Am7           Bb
and make it on my own,
        F         C     Bb       
But the lights of Cincinnati will
      Bb6             F
 keep calling me back home.

Sometimes late at night I watch the 
fire light
Make pictures of a life that used to
 be,
For a moment I'm back there in that 
same old rocking chair,
You look across the room and smile 
at me.
