The painter from St Petersburg is making headline news
   C                              G
He paints his masterpieces to the sound of lonesome blues
        Dm            F                    G              D
There's no one in the whole wide world can ever steal his shoes
C                 G   C  G  C  G
Under a cloudless sky

[Verse]
    C                     G
The highwayman is hungry, hanging high in chains
    C                             G
His body may be weakened, but his will to live remains
   Dm                  F    G                D
He sleeps with one eye open watching out for planes
C                 G
Under a cloudless sky
C                 G
Under a cloudless sky

For forty days and nights I've been lost
              C        D
How long have you been flying?
        G                                     C D  G
Well, I haven't had the time to count the cost
              C        D
How long have you been flying?

[Verse]
    G                                D
The runway's cracked and broken, the weeds are showing through
Continúa después del anuncio
     G                               D
I've been in so high so long, I have lost sight of the view
        C                                      D
There's no one on the radio to bring me back to you
          C                 D
Won't somebody try and understand
C             D     C
All I want to do is land

   C                   G
Vittorio Emanuel shows signs of deep mistrust
   C                        G
He carefully avoids Signora Montenegro's bust
Dm       F         G       D
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
C                 G   C  G
Under a cloudless sky

C                           G
All along the promenade the day has just begun
C                      G
Gilded Russian cupolas glistening in the sun
    Dm              F              G             D
The painter and the highwayman are surely having fun
C                 G
Under a cloudless sky
C                 G
Under a cloudless sky

The highwayman broke out into a shiver
              C        D
How long have you been flying?
    G                                     C D  G
The painter flung his brushes in the river
              C        D
How long have you been flying?

High above San Remo, out of all control
    G                           D
The painter sold his icons, the highwayman his soul
     G                                      D
They played in the Casino on a never ending roll
          C                 D
Won't somebody try and understand
C             D     C
All I want to do is land
                            D
Won't somebody try and understand
C             D     C     G  C  G
All I want to do is land
