Metroland Chords & Lyrics by Mark Knopfler
Metroland
guitar chords lyrics
I think this is pretty accurate, but please tell me if there's anything wrong. Tho
it's not exactly how it really should be played as I think there's some chords
inbetween in the verses. But it still works fine.
Intro:

Em
Am C
Yearning we were yearning
G F
Green light blinding on the rail
Am C
Burning we were burning
G F G
And the line unwinding to the Holy Grail
F Am
To the future gleaming on a blue horizon
F G
And a golden girl on golden sand
Am C
Dreaming fantasizing
G C F G
In another world from Metroland
Am C
I've danced in rain and I've been Django
G
And I've got laid
F
I've been a rolling stone
Am
I've been Verlaine
C
And I've been Rimbaud
G F G
Not afraid to walk alone
F Am
And now I take my midnight ramble
F G
Do I fold or play what's in my hand
Am C
What's at stake and what's the gamble
G C F G C F G
Do I stay in Metroland
Am C
Dreams yesterday's laughter
G F
Ghosts and lovers come back to play
Am C
But dreams have a morning after
G F G
And run for cover in the light of day
F Am
I got something real worth holding on to
F G
I can belong to and understand
Am
I've made my deal
C
I will go on to
G C F G C F G
Make my peace with Metroland
