1. I dreamt we were standing by the banks of the Thames,

                      C                                             F                   G

    where the cold grey waters ripple in the misty morning light.

                   C                                                          F                       G

    Held a match to your cigarette, watched the smoke curl in the mist,

             C                            F                                G          C

    your eyes, blues as the ocean between us, smiling at me.

2. I woke so cold and lonely in a faraway place,

            C                                                F                                      G

    the sun felt cold upon my face, the cracks in the ceiling spelt hell.

C                                                      F                         G

    Turned to the wall, pulled the sheets around my head,

      C                            F                     G                   C

    tried to sleep and dream my way, back to you again.

+  Count the days, slowly passing by, step on a plane and fly away,

           C                               F

    I’ll see you there as the dawn birds sing

              C                F                    G          C

    on a cold misty morning by the Albert Bridge.
