Empty Sky

Intro : | E | E D/E | E | E D/E | D A E i’m not a rat to be spat on locked up in this room . D A E those bars that look towards the sun at night look towards the moon . G A E everyday the swallows play in the clouds of love . G F#m B make me wish that i had wings take me high above . Chorus : Am7 G D A and i looked high - and saw the empty sky . Am7 G D A if i could only , i could only fly . G D/F# A/E A i’d drift with them in endless space . G D/F# E but no man flies from this place . D A E at night i lay upon my bench and stare towards the stars . D A E the cold night air comes creeping in and home seems oh so far . G A E if only i could swing upon those twinkling dots above . G F#m B i’d look down from the heavens upon the ones i love . {repeat Chorus} D A E hey - the lucky locket hangs around your precious neck . D A E some luck i ever got with you and i - wouldn’t like to bet - G A E that sooner or later you’ll own just one half of this land . G F#m B by shining your eyes on the wealth of every man . D D/A A E D A E just send up my love . ain’t seen nothing but tears . D A E D A E now i’ve got myself - in this room for years . D A E D A E don’t see no one one , never see anyone D A E D A E yeah we’re high , yeah D A E
