Subject: CRD: From St. Kilda to King's Cross by Paul Kelly

From St. Kilda to King's Cross by Paul Kelly (from the "Post"
album). A beautiful song (but personally I prefer Brisbane :)).

Any comments, corrections or even thanks are welcome


Intro:

G |Emin |C C/B Amin X2


G |Emin |C C/B Amin |
From St. Kilda to King's Cross is thirteen hours on a bus

G |Emin |C C/B
I press my face against the glass and watch the white lines

Amin |
rushing past

C |D |Emin
And all around me felt like all inside me

|Amin |C |D |
And my body left me and my soul went running



G |Emin |C C/B Amin |
Have you ever seen king's Cross when the rain is falling soft

G |Emin |C C/B Amin |
I came in on the evening bus from Oxford Street I cut across

C |D |
And if the rain don't fall too hard

Emin |Amin |
Everything shines just like a postcard

C |D |G |
Everything goes on just the same


C |C |G |
Fairweather friends are the hungriest friends

C |Emin G |
I keep my mouth well shut, I cross their open hands


Solo :

G |Emin |C C/B Amin X2

C |D |Emin |Amin |C |D |



G |Emin |C C/B Amin |
I want to see the sun go down from St. Kilda esplanade

G |Emin |C C/B Amin |
Where the beach needs reconstruction, where the palm trees have it hard

C |D
I'd give you all of Sydney Harbour

Emin |Amin |
All that land, all that water,

C |D |
for that one sweet promenade.

C |D
I'd give you all of Sydney Harbour

Emin |Amin |
All that land, all that water,

C |D |
for that one sweet promenade.


End:
