WHEN YOU'RE GONE
AS THE CROW FLIES
Em D Em D Em D C Em
Em G Em G
Well her eyes were as wild as the Cornish storm
Em G D C Cadd9 C
But her heart like a cliff's all battered and worn
Em G Em G
Well we met in the Spring when she fits like a glove
Em G D C Cadd9 C
And I'd bring her the roses like a Noah's dove
Em G Em G
But the madness of youth is the cardinal sin
Em G D C Cadd9 C
I left her in the garden as the Autumn set in
Em D Em
She said "Oh I'll be lonesome when you're gone"
D
"I'll be lonesome"
Em D C Em
"I'll be lonesome when you're gone, when you're gone"
Em G Em G
Well I travelled across the ocean onto Wicklow Street
Em G D C Cadd9 C
There was more there to smoke than there was there to eat
Em G Em G
And the alleyways turned into hell and fire
Em G D C Cadd9 C
All of their eyes burned in one cold desire
Em G Em G
And the view from our eyes began to feel so tight
Em G D C Cadd9 C
I woke up in the morning with the neon lights
Em G Em G
And from the horns of the taxis to the crashing of the sea
Em G D C Cadd9 C
The words that she said kept on holding me
Em D Em
She said "Oh I'll be lonesome when you're gone"
D
"I'll be lonesome"
Em D C Em
"I'll be lonesome when you're gone, when you're gone"
Em G Em G
Well her eyes were as wild as the Cornish storm
Em G D C Cadd9 C
But now her heart like the cliff's all battered and worn
Em G Em G
Now I'm heading back home to where the ships come in
Em G D C Cadd9 C
And I'm counting the stars now for all of my sin
Em G Em G
And I'm hopin' and I'm prayin' as I'm walking down the street
Em G D C Cadd9 C
That she's waiting in the garden with the roses at her feet
Em D Em
Singing "Oh I'll be lonesome when you're gone"
D
"I'll be lonesome"
Em D C Em
"I'll be lonesome when you're gone"
Em D Em
"Oh I'll be lonesome when you're gone"
D
"I'll be lonesome"
Em D C Em
"I'll be lonesome when you're gone, when you're gone"
