Intro:
Am Em Dm C
Verse 1:
Am              Em
   A picture of Amsterdam,
Dm                     C         G
   Bear - Tree's under glass, 
Am               Em                        Dm
   Framed in the grey and white, afternoon light,
                    C        G
   Of a winter long past,
Verse 2:
Am              Em
   when I was a riser, 
Dm                  C        G
   through Dublin I roamed,
Am           Em         Dm
   She was a bare back rider,
        C           G
   Some miles from home,
Chorus 1:
Am               Em
   come back to me,
Bb              F    C
   come back to me,
Am               Em
   come back to me,
Bb              F    C
   come back to me
Verse 3:
Am                  Em
   She's a carnival diver, 
Dm               C     G
   Tongue in the sky, 
Am                 Em
   Cutting through time like a memory,
Dm             C      G
   Strung on a wire,
Verse 4:
Am               Em
   The colour of anything,
Dm              C     G 
   Fades in the air, 
Am            Em
   She is the film of the book, 
          Dm
   Of the story of the sun of her hair 
Chorus 2:
Am               Em
   come back to me,
Bb              F    C
   come back to me,
Am               Em
   come back to me,
Bb              F    C
   come back to me
(Play over) Piano solo:
Dm - Bb 
Dm - Bb 
Dm - Bb 
Dm - G
Verse 5:
Am                    Em
   When every thing's over,
Dm                   C  G
   Everything' s clear,
Am             Em         Dm
   Everyone's     older,
          C        G
No one is here,
Verse 6:
Am             Em
   I try too remember, 
Dm             C     G
   A girl on a wire, 
Am                    Em
   She's tumbling and diving, 
                   Dm
Above Stephenson's green, 
                   C    G
like a kite on the air,
Outro Chorus:
Am               Em
   come back to me,
Bb              F    C
   come back to me,
Am               Em
   come back to me,
Bb              F    C
   come back to me
Am               Em
   come back to me,
Bb              F    C
   come back to me,
Am               Em
   come back to me,
Bb              F    C
   come back to me
Am               Em
   come back to me,
Bb              F
   come back to me.
