[Intro]
G Bm A G
[Verse]
G
And you're far too far away
Bm
It's been years since we spoke
A
But I wonder if you think
G
Of you and I, I can only hope
Bm
With a new man in your head
D
And a new home for your heart
A
Our romance is long dead
G
But a friend is what I lost
[Chorus]
G
And take me back to St. Ives
Bm
Where we both lived different lives
A
Kept warm in winter nights
G
Harps played by candlelight
Bm
Oo-oo-oo-oh oh oo-oh
[Instrumental]
A G
[Verse]
G
I made a fool of myself
Bm
Making a fool out of you
A
Through all the times you wept
G
You thought that you were being used
Bm
I tried to learn my lesson
D
Not to read between the lines
A
But through all the mild affection
G
Please know that the fault was mine
[Chorus]
G
And take me back to St. Ives
Bm
Where we both lived different lives
A
Kept warm in winter nights

Harps played by candlelight

[Instrumental]

G
Oo-oh oh
[Bridge]
G
And if we saw each other now
Bm
Would we pick up where we left
G
Or would you glance the other way?
A
A simple sign we must forget...
[Bridge]
G
'Cause you're far too far away
A
It's been years since we spoke
Bm
But I wonder if you think
A
Of you and I, I can only hope
[Chorus]
G
You take me back to St. Ives
A
Where we both lived different lives

Kept warm in winter nights

Harps played by candlelight
