Elton John - Curtains: chords

  A#                     A#7
I used to know this old scarecrow
           D#               A#
He was my song, my joy and sorrow
A#                      A#7
Cast alone between the furrows
       D#                      A#
Of a field, no longer sown by anyone
A#7
I held a dandelion
                       D#
That said the time had come
                  F7
To leave upon the wind
          A#
Not to return
      A#7               D#
When summer burned the earth again
          A#                 D#
O-o-o-ooooohhhhh, o-o-o-o-oo-ooohhhhh

Chorus:
A#                       A#7
Cultivate the freshest flower
D#          A#
This garden ever grew
A#              A#7
Beneath these branches
        D#                  A#
I once wrote such childish words for you
A#
But that's okay
                                          D#
There's treasure children always seek to find
              F F7
And just like us
               A#
You must have had
               D#
A once upon a time

A#
Oh...
D#

Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
