The Loneliest Place On The Map - Al Stewart (capo 3)
(x13330)
This place is so far
Away from what passes for civilized life
No shops and no cars and no city lights
Just a river of stars
Over the southernmost ocean so cold
B#o7 (x34242)
A small group of rocks, seagulls and ice
Some ramshackle huts
A paper in French from long ago
F#dim7(2x121x)
A finger that juts out into the foam
No boats come this way
A few expeditions that pass now and then
They`ll be back someday but I don`t know when
It`s the loneliest place on the map
Night time is utterly black
I came here by some grave mishap
(instrumental verse)
And I can`t find my way, my way back
It`s all as remote
As the wintry smile that you gave
As you buttoned your coat
F#dim7
And love was erased
So this is goodbye
I see you silently rowing away
The desolate sky threatening rain
It`s the loneliest place on the map
Night time is utterly black
I came here by some grave mishap
And I can`t find my way, my way back
