Chords

I have added this song as I could not find a version of this song on this site. This is really a only a copy of the tab on the Al Stewart website alstewart.com formatted as required for this site. The tab is credited there to Adrian Suter and I claim nothing except changing the spelling of Biplane. 3rd fret. [Piano Introduction] Am D E Am G F C Bdim7 Am [Verse 1]
           Am               D      E
His flying jacket still has her perfume

Am              G
Memories of the Night

F               C
Play across his mind

Bdim7                    Am
High above the fields of France
[Bridge] Am D E Am G F C Bdim7 Am [Verse 2]
         Am             D          E
A single biplane in the clear blue sky

Am            G
Nineteen seventeen

   F         C
No enemy was seen

Bdim7                    Am
High above the fields of France
[Bridge 2] Am D E Am G F C Bdim7 Am [Verse 3]
       Dm7
Oh she looks

                       Em     Am7
But there's nothing to see

          Dm7
Still she looks

                    Am    E
Saying come back to me

Am                           D       E
  He tells her just remember me this way

    Am             G
For here am I more true

     F          C
Than anything I do

Bdim7                    Am
High above the fields of France
[flute solo] Am D E Am G F C Bdim7 Am Am D E Am G F C Bdim7 Am [Verse 4]
       Dm7
Oh she looks

                        Em     Am7
Though he'll never come back

        Dm7
And the letter that came

                Am       E
Was bordered in black

Am
   She'll find somebody else

    D      E
But not forget

Am             G
Leaving her regrets

     F                C
Like vapour trails of jets

Bdim7                    Am
High above the fields of France
[Outro] Am D E Am G F C
Bdim7                    Am
High above the fields of France
Am D E Am G F C Bdim7 Am
