[A] [G] [D] [A]
[G] [D] [A] Got out of town on a [G] boat from the southern [D] islands, [A] sailing the reach [G] for a following [A] sea.
She was making for [G] the trades on [D] the outside, [A] and the downhill run [G] to Pampa [D] Apec.
[A] Off the wind on [G] this peddling line of the [D] Marquesa, you [A] got 80 feet [G] of a water line, [D] [A] nicely made in Quay.
In a noisy [G] bar in Avalon, I [D] tried to call you, but [A] on a midnight watch [G] I realized [D] why twice [Bm] you [A] ran away.
Think [D] about how many [G] times I have [D] [G] fallen, [D] spirits are using [G] me, larger [A] voices [G] callin', what [D] heaven brought you and [G] me cannot [A] be forgotten.
[D] I've been around [G] the [A] world, looking [D] [G] for that old one [A] girl, who [D]
knows [G] love can [A] endure, and you know it [G] will.
[D]
[A] [G] [D] [A] When you see the [G] southern cross [D] for the first time, [A] you understand [G] now why you [D] came this way.
[A]
Cause the truth you [G] might be running [D] from is so small, [A] but it's as big [G] as the promise, [Bm] the promise of a [A] coming day.
So I'm sailing [G] forth tomorrow, my [D] dreams are a dying, [A] and my love [G] is an anchor [D] tied to you, [Bm] tied with a [A] silver chain.
I have my ship, [G] and all the [D] flags are a flying, [A] she is all that [G] I have left, [D] and [Bm] music [A] is her name.
[G] Think about [D] how many [G] times I [F#m] have [G] fallen, spirits are [D] using [G] me, larger [A] voices [G] callin', what [D] heaven brought you and me [G] cannot [A] be forgotten.
I've been around the world, [D] [G] looking [A]
[D] [G] for that old [A] one girl, [D] who knows [G] [A]
love can [G] endure, [D]
and you [A] know [G] it will.
