Skyline Pigeon by Elton John





         Skyline Pigeon








(E  BD#  AC#  B  A  B  E)*

	E	        BD#
Turn me loose from your hands

       A B    	      E
Let me fly to distant lands

     F#A#  		     A
Over green fields, trees and mountains

EB	B7	   E
Flowers and forest fountains

A	       EB   B7	    E
Home along the lanes of the skyway


	 E		 BD#
For this dark and lonely room

	     A  EB  B7	     E
Projects a sha___dow cast in gloom

		F#A#
And my eyes are mirrors

       A
Of the world outside

	 EB
Thinking of the way

B7		  E
That the wind can turn the tide

	  A
And these shadows turn

     EB    B7   E
From purple into grey


	   A
For just a Skyline Pigeon

EB		B7
Dreaming of the open

E
Waiting for the day

       A
He can spread his wings

    EB  B7   E   G#7D#
And fly away again

     C#m D#7	 	G#m
Fly away skyline pigeon fly

	    A
Towards the dreams

       EB          B7    E    G#7D#
You've left so very far behind

     C#m D#7	 	G#m
Fly away skyline pigeon fly

	    A
Towards the dreams

       EB          B7    E
You've left so very far behind


	    E
Just let me wake up in the morning

       G#mD#
To the smell of new mown hay

	     A		      D7
To laugh and cry, to live and die

       E
In the brightness of my day

	  F#A#
I want to hear the pealing bells

	   A
Of distant churches sing

	    EB
But most of all please free me

B7		 E
From this aching metal ring

    A		  EB		   E
And open out this cage towards the sun


	   A
For just a Skyline Pigeon

EB		B7
Dreaming of the open

E
Waiting for the day

       A
He can spread his wings

    EB  B7   E   G#7D#
And fly away again

     C#m D#7	 	G#m
Fly away skyline pigeon fly

	    A
Towards the dreams

       EB          B7    E    G#7D#
You've left so very far behind

     C#m D#7	 	G#m
Fly away skyline pigeon fly

	    A
Towards the dreams

       EB                   B7    E  B  C#m  EB  A  EB B7 E
You've left so very, so very far behi_____nd.

Verse 3

(Same chords as verses 1 & 2)

Just let me wake up in the morning 

to the smell of new mown hay

to laugh and cry, to live and die

I the brightness of my day


I want to hear the pealing bells

Of distant churches sing

But most of all please free me

from this aching metal ring

and open out this cage towards the sun

(Repeat chorus)
