Lord Salisbury by Al Stewart
From "Sparks of Ancient Light"

[D]Lord Salisbury said to me
G A
"Though we spend our lives in isolation
[D]Girdled 'round by the Emerald Sea
G A D
No fear shall we know".
[G]Look away, look away, look away
D
To the lamp-lit square
At the ebb of May
[G]Look away, look away, look away
D A D
For our survival

[D]Lord Salisbury takes his time
G A
The government sits in contemplation
[D]All is ordered and in its prime
G A D
No fear shall we know
[G]Look away, look away, look away
D
To the fog-bound ship in the icy bay
[G]Look away, look away, look away
D A D
For our survival

Bm F#
On the mantelpiece is a silver clock
Bm G
And it counts the hours and they won't turn back
Bm F#
The evening set and the room forgets
G E A
The day that went before
Bm F#
And through my window
G E A
Iron wheels on a cobbled mews
Bm F# E A
You will know changes soon

Lord Salisbury reads the news
And puts the paper on the table
Many paths will be ours to choose
No fear shall we know
Look away, look away, look away
To the fleets of steel and the waves of grey
Look away, look away, look away
For our survival

The Queen is old but she lingers still
Like the fading ring of a distant bell
And Oscar Wilde in his prison cell
Laments a brighter day
And in some window a red flag flies
In a meeting room
You will know changes soon

Lord Salisbury said to me
"Though we spend our lives in isolation
Girdled 'round by the Emerald Sea
No fear shall we know".
Look away, look away, look away
To the lonesome cry of the modern day
Look away, look away, look away
For our survival
