G

I made a promise
D

to myself
A
Someday I'd return to these shores
D
G
The silver coastline white with waves,
A
the heather green on the moor

D
G
For I have left a life behind,
D
A
I lived as a gambling man
D
G
Searching for that wild pie cart
A
to play a winning hand

A
And I wandered into a
D
G
smuggler's saloon
A
Shadows dancing on the wall
D
G
At a table green we played our cart
A
And we drank from glasses tall
D
And next to me a woman wept
G
D
A
Her eyes watching fortune and fame
D
G
And as I played my last pie card
A
But I could not leave the game

D
G
Lady Luck is a court mistress,
A
both passionate and proud
D
G
I'm the fool who tries to find
A
Her face among the crowd
D
Seeking her re flection,
G
D
I could never see her face
A
D
G
Till I laid my last high guard
A
And fell into her embrace
D
G
And now the game has ended at last
A
In the cold gray light of dawn
Dm
G
The hands of time unties the blinds,
A
in the morning we are gone
D
And the love we made is lingering
G
D
A
like waves upon the sand
D
G
And as I breathe the cool morning air,
Bm
G
A
G
A
I hold a winning hand.
