The Loneliest Place On The Map - Al Stewart (capo 3)
Am               Bb+5(x13330)
This place is so far 
Am             Bb                    Dm
Away from what passes for civilized life
                 Am               B    Bb+5
No shops and no cars and no city lights 
Am                Bb+5
Just a river of stars
Am        Bb                    Dm
Over the southernmost ocean so cold
                  Am                 B  B#o7 (x34242)
A small group of rocks, seagulls and ice

Em              Bm
Some ramshackle huts
Em          Bm
A paper in French from long ago
Dm             Am  F#dim7(2x121x) E
A finger that juts out into the foam
Am               Bb+5
No boats come this way
Am         Bb                       Dm
A few expeditions that pass now and then
                   Am                     B Bb+5
They`ll be back someday but I don`t know when

          Am                    Gm
It`s the loneliest place on the map
F                      E
Night time is utterly black
   Dm                      C
I came here by some grave mishap
      Bb+5                      Am   Bb  Am  Bb (instrumental verse)
And I can`t find my way, my way back

Em            Bm
It`s all as remote
Em            Bm
As the wintry smile that you gave
Dm                    Am
As you buttoned your coat
F#dim7        E
And love was erased
Am          Bb+5
So this is goodbye
Am         Bb              Dm
I see you silently rowing away
             Am              B  Bb+5
The desolate sky threatening rain

          Am                    Gm
It`s the loneliest place on the map
F                      E
Night time is utterly black
   Dm                      C
I came here by some grave mishap
      Bb+5                      Am   Bb  Am  
And I can`t find my way, my way back
