[A] [N] Here's a song by Stephen and the Curtis brothers Richard and Michael.
Tell them a little song.
Great song you [A] wrote here.
Got [G] [D]
[A] [G] [D] [A]
out of town [G] on a boat called the Southern [Bm] [D] Arrowhead
Sailing [A] in reach [G] for [D] a following sea
[A]
She was making [G] portrait [D] on the outside
[A] And the down here [G] earth she'd come [Bm] back and [A] take
Off the wind on [G] this heavy glider [D] marquessa
He [A] got eighty feet of [G] [D] waterline nicely making [A] way
In a noisy [G] bar in [D] Avalon I tried to call you
[A] On a midnight [G] watch I realized [D] why [Bm] twice you [A] ran away
[G] Think [D] about how many [G] times [A] I have [G] fallen
[D] Spirits are using [G] me, loud your [A] voices [G] calling
On a cabin [D] brought to me, [G] cannot sleep [A] again
I have [D] been around [G] [A] the world, [D]
looking [G] for that [A] woman and girl
[D]
That [G] love can [A] endure, and you know it [G] will, [D] yeah
[A] [G] [D] [A] When you see the [G] Southern Cross [D] for the first time
[A] You understand [G] now why you came [D] this [A] way
The truth you might be [G] running [D] from is so small
[A] But it's as big [G] as the promise, [D] the promise of the [A] coming day
So I'm sailing [G] for her, my brother [D] dreams of a giant
[A] And my love [G] is an antithetic, [D] a time with a [A] silver chain
I have my ship [G] and all her [D] plans are a-flying
[A] She might be all that I [G] have left, [D] and [Bm] music is [A] her name
[G] [D] Think about how many times [G] I have [A] [G] fallen
[A] Spirits [D] are using [G] me, loud your [A] voices [G] calling
One [D] cabin brought you [G] and me, cannot [A] be forgotten
I [D] have been around [G] [A] the world, [D]
looking for [G] that woman [A] and girl
[D]
That love [G] can [A] endure, and you know it will, [G] yeah
[D] And [A] you know [G] it will
[D] [A]
[G] [D]
[A] [G] [D] [A]
[G] [D]
[A] [G] [D] [A] So we cheated and [G] we lied [D] and we trusted
[A] And we never [G] failed to think [D] it was the easiest [A] thing to do
You [G] will survive, [D] be interested, [A] somebody fine
[G] Come along, [D] make me forget about [A] loving you
In the Southern Cross, [G] [D]
in the [A] Southern [G] Cross
[D]
[N] Thank you
