Fairport Convention – After Halloween (Guitar)

C                               Am
Red and gold and Halloween have passed us by

    C                                Am           Gm
The charcoal branches lean against the rosy sky

           A7           Ab                G         C
You are so far away and I could touch you if I may

                                 Am    D      G
But don't you worry now, I'm only dreaming anyway

    C                              Am
You may be lonely, you may be just on your own

   C                                Am               Gm
It could be anywhere, some place that I have known

                A7            Ab            G
But who am I and do we really live these days at all

    C                                Am         D    G     Bm
And are they simply feelings we have learnt and do recall

            Am                Cm
Oh, the sea has made me cry

      Bm               Am                D
But I love her too, so maybe I love you

C                              Am
Tears are only made of salt and water

C                                 Am          Gm
And across the waves, the sound of laughter

        A7               Ab      G
October, it has gone and left me with a song

     C                                 Am     D      G
That I will sing to you, although this moment may be wrong

Bm                            Am              Cm
Could it be the sea's as real as you and I?

        Bm           C
I often wonder why I always have to say

         Am      D   G
I'm only dreaming anyway

Bm                            Am              Cm
Could it be the sea's as real as you and I?

        Bm           C
I often wonder why I always have to say

         Am      D   G     Am  D7
I'm only dreaming anyway
