Am                                         D/A
Freedom for the scapegoat, leaving Reading Gaol
Am                                                   D/A
Rheumy eyes, just pierced his heart like crucifixion nails
Am                                    D/A
Shaking fists and razors gleamed, you never stood a chance
         Am      G      Bb/F  F          E7                  Am
When the ink ran red on Fleet Street you turned your eyes to France

   Am                Dm7/A                 Am                   Dm7/A

Am                                         D/A
Humbled far from Dublin, chased across the waves
Am                                                        D/A
Your biting wit still sharp enough to slice through every page
Am                          D/A
Destitute and beaten by the system of the crown
    Am     G        Bb/F   F         E7            Am
The bitter pill you swallowed tasted sweeter going down

    Dm                  E        Am
And looking back on the great indifference
Dm                  E         Am
Looking back at the limestone walls
Bb                  Am
Thinking how beauty deceived you
Dm                        E7sus4 E7
Knowing how love fools us all

   Am                Dm/A               Am                Dm/A

Am                                      D/A
A golden boy in velveteen landed in New York
    Am                                               D/A
The past was so seductive when they paid to hear you talk
Am                             D/A
Baccarat and champagne flutes, tobacco from Virginia
Am     G        Bb/F      F           E7            Am
Long before the lords and law branded Oscar Wilde a sinner

Dm                  E           Am
Looking back on the cold, bleak winter
Dm                    E          Am
Looking back on those long, dark days
Bb                            Am
Set like the head of John the Baptist
Dm                 E7sus4 E7
In the arms of Salome

   Am                Dm7/A                 Am                   Dm7/A

Am
Don't turn around it's a white gull screaming
D
Don't cry out loud, you never know who's listening
       F               C           G7
You've seen it all the exiled Unforgiven
         Bb               F              Am
From the stately homes of England to her prisons
Am
Looking back at the hardened lifers
D
Looking back on the wretched poor
F              C            G7
Thinking maybe they were my saviours
Bb                    F         Am
Strange to think I'll miss them all
Bb                    F         Am
Strange to thing I'll miss them all

    Dm           E7              Am
And looking back on the great indifference
Dm                  E7        Am
Looking back at the limestone walls
Bb                  Am
Thinking how beauty deceived you
Dm                        E7sus4 E7
Knowing how love fools us all

   Am                Dm7/A                 Am                   Dm7/A
