[Intro]
Dmaj7 Em x3
Dmaj7
[Verse 1]
Dmaj7 Em
When did I become blasé
Dmaj7
About the crocuses?
Em
My body's here to work
Dmaj7
I'm not on holiday
Em
The sight of colonnades
And sunlit cobbles
Dmaj7 Em
Kids running down the beach
In their goggles
[Refrain]
F# Bm
Oh, honey don't you think
Em
It all seems so improbable?
Em
Improbable...
[Verse 2]
Dmaj7 Em
Lately I haven't had the heart
To thread the needle
Dmaj7 Em
I'm discontent with half of what
Sits on my easel
Dmaj7 Em
How can one manifest the truth
Of light on water?
Dmaj7 Em
Man it's all been done before
Why even bother?
[Refrain]
F# Bm
Oh, honey don't you think
Em
It all seems so improbable?
Em
Improbable...
[Chorus]
G Em
Something holy in cathedral bеlls
D
The red-tile roofs
Bm
Thе seagull's cry
G Em
Something holy in the writer's page
Bm
The stranger's smile
Bm D
A friend's embrace
[Verse 3]
D Em
When did I stop hearing symphonies
In people's voices
Dmaj7 Em
Or forget that I'm the only one
Who makes my choices?
D
I lay down on the sand
Em
And didn't move for hours
Dmaj7 Em
Dreamt of saints and thorns
Amid the flowers
[Refrain]
F# Bm
Oh, honey don't you think
Em
It all seems so improbable?
Em
Improbable...
[Chorus]
G Em
Something holy in cathedral bells
D
The red-tile roofs
Bm
The seagull's cry
G Em
Something holy in the writer's page
D
The stranger's smile
Bm
A friend's embrace
G Em
Something holy in the sun-sweat brow
D
A fishing boat
Bm
A fado song
G Em
Something holy in the breeze that blows
D
The almond tree
Bm G Em A Bm G Em A
The purple shade
[Bridge]

Duh-da la duh-da la duh-da la la
