Biography:
Deacon Blue is a Scottish pop band formed in Glasgow in 1985. Their name came from the title of the Steely Dan song "Deacon Blues". Success came for the band in 1989 when their second studio album, When The World Knows Your Name, topped the UK Album Charts. The album included "Real Gone Kid" which became their first UK top ten single. After releasing further albums in 1991 and 1993, they split up in 1994. Five years later, in 1999, the band held a reunion gig and this led to the album, Walking Back Home.

Intro - E C#m A B x2
A B
Cold dawn won`t comfort you
A B
Cold coffee won`t see you through
A B
Cold sheets won`t heal your heart
A B
Your frozen fingers or your name so tarred
E C#m A B
I know so rarely that things come your way
E C#m A B
Your ways are tender and your paths are straight
E C#m A B
Your mind`s not lived in the way ours are set
E C#m A B
Your heart is open to love and regret
A B
Rings and letters they pass you by
You wish them well and seldom cry
For stones and promises and wedding sighs
You`ve known the times that you`ve lived and died
E C#m A B
These sailors come and spend time ashore
Their thoughts are hoarded as yours have been stored
Your mind`s not lived in the way ours are set
Your heart is open to love and regret
E A B
Outside in the morning air
I hear the soundtrack of the Blues harp player
It touches feelings that you don`t arouse
Knocks me back to that shuttered house
Take me back when they`re all out
Take me back to that shuttered house
Solo E C#m A B (chords continue til fade)
