Dawes – That Western Skyline (Ukulele)

                     B9         Dsus2                  A
Oh Lou, I'd like to let you know that I do not feel welcome

A                                 B9
   All the birds, the trees, the falling snow

Dsus2                           A
   No, they were not made for me

A                               B9           Dsus2             A
  And though this is where her heart resides, we met in California

A                          B9
  She saw a city's promise reaching through my eyes,

Dsus2                       A
  And she turned her self away

Dsus2                            A
  Well how I curse that western skyline

Dsus2                          A
  And yet I thanked it for my start

Dsus2    F#m         A                  Dsus2           
      Oh Lou, no my dreams did not come true

           D#dim             A
  No, they only came apart

A                            B9
  So I followed her here to Birmingham,

Dsus2                       A 
  where the soil is so much richer

A                                  B9
  And though my aching pride might guide my hand,

Dsus2                       A
  she did not ask for me to come

A                       B9
  So I wait for her all through the day,

Dsus2                     A
  as if I wait for her surrender

A                              B9
  And every time I get her to look my way, 

Dsus2                           A
  she says I'm not where I belong

Dsus2                                A
  But I watch her father preach on Sundays

Dsus2                         A
  I know the hymnals all by heart

Dsus2      F#m         A                 Dsus2
    But oh Lou, no my dreams did not come true

           D#dim           A
  No, they only came apart

C#m    A  E  A  Dsus2
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh

C#m    A  E  A  E
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh

C#m    A  E  A  Dsus2
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh

C#m    A  E  A  E  E7
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh

A                         B9
  All the snow fall this time of year, 

Dsus2                          A
  it's not what Birmingham is used to

A                           B9
  I get the feeling that I brought it here,

Dsus2                       A 
  and now I'm taking it away

Dsus2                                   A
  But let's share one more drink together,

Dsus2                    A 
  before I go reload my car

Dsus2    F#m        A                   Dsus2
  And oh Lou, no my dreams did not come true

          D#dim           A
  No they only came apart

C#m    A  E  A  Dsus2
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh (Take me home)

C#m    A  E  A  E
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh

C#m    A  E  A  Dsus2
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh

C#m    A  E  A  E  
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
