Tom : Bb
Bb F
Here it comes, another lonely day playing the game
Dm Am Cm Gm
I'll sail away on a voyage of no return to see
Bbm F Am
If eternal life is meant to be
Gm Bbm C
And if I find the key to the eternal dream
Bb F
The painted ladies of the avalon play in the sun
Dm Am Cm Gm
Take to the road, to the north there lies the chills of cold
Bbm F Am
To the south there lies the tales untold
Gm Bbm
But in between there lies the place to close your eyes
[Refrão]
F Faug Dm C Bb
And I will staaaaaaaaaaaay,
F Gm Bbm
I'll not be back, eldorado
F Faug Dm C Bb
I will be freeeeeeeeeeee
F Gm Bbm C
of the world, eldorado
[Próxima Parte]
Bb F
Say goodbye, the city's heroes sing, bird on the wing
Dm Am Cm Gm
Feel, feel so free through the life upon the rooftop haze
Bbm F Am
All the cheating and the broken days
Gm Bbm
So through it all I see there's nothing left for me
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
Bb F
Sitting here on top of everywhere, what do I care
Dm Am Cm Gm
Days never end, I know the voyage's end will soon be here
Bbm F Am
No eternal life is here for me
Gm Bbm
And now I found the key to the eternal dream
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
F Faug Dm C Bb
and I will staaaaaaaaaaaay,
F Eb
I'll not be back, eldorado
