Capo 5th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

(or )

Verse 1

A picture of Amsterdam,

Bare trees under glass,

Framed in the grey and white, afternoon light,

Of a winter long past,

Verse 2

when I was a riser,

through Dublin I roamed,

She was a bare back rider,

Some miles from home,

Chorus 1

come back to me,

come back to me,

come back to me,

come back to me

Verse 3

She's a carnival diver,

Tongue in the sky,

Cutting through time like a memory,

Strung on a wire,

Verse 4

The colour of anything,

Fades in the air,

She is the film of the book,

Of the story of the smell of her hair

Chorus 2

come back to me,

come back to me,

come back to me,

come back to me

(Play over) Piano solo:

Verse 5

When every thing's over,

Everything' s clear,

Everyone's older,

No one is here,

Verse 6

I try to remember,

A girl on a wire,

She's tumbling and diving,

Above Stephenson's green,

like a kite on the air,

Outro chorus

come back to me,

come back to me,

come back to me,

come back to me

come back to me,

come back to me,

come back to me,

come back to me

come back to me,

come back to me.
