I saw [Bb] it again [E] this [Bbm] evening, [Gb] like sailing a pale [Ab] yellow sky.
[Gb] And just as before [E] in the [Gb] moment, [Dbm] it was gone with the great gulls fly.
[Ebm]
[Gb] If it happens again I [Abm] shall worry, that [Gb] only a [Abm] strange ship could fly.
[E] I see [Gb] that she [E] scans the [Gb] horizon, [Dbm] in the light of a [Ab] darkening sky.
[Gb] [Ab] That night as I walked in my slumber, I waded into the sea [Eb] strand.
[Ab] [Eb] [Ab] And I swam [Abm] with the moon in her love, [Ab]
until I [Eb] lost sight of the [Ab] land.
I swam till the night became morning, black sail in a [Eb] reddening sky.
Found [Abm] myself on the deck of a sinking ship, [Ab] so [Dbm] [Gb] far where no great gulls [Ab] fly.
[Gb] [Ab] All around me was silence, as it mocked my [Db] frail human hopes.
[Ab] And a question mark hung in the canvas, for the wind [E] that had [Gb] died in the [Ab] rose.
I may have slept for an hour, I may have slept [Db] for a day.
[Ab] For I awoke in a bed of white linen, [Dbm] and the sky was the color [Ab] of the clay.

[E]
At first [Gb] just a [E] rustle of [Gb] camber,
[Dbm] and the [Gb] jinglest breath [Db] on my face.
[Abm] But [E] a galloping line of white horses, [Gb]
[Dbm] said that soon we [Gb] were in [Ab] for a race.
[Gb] And the [Db] gentle sigh [Ab] turned to howling, and the gray sky she angered [Eb] to black.
[Ab] [Eb] In [Abm] my anxious eyes searched the [Ab] horizon, [Dbm] but I got [Gb] a sea at my [Ab] back.
[Gb] [Db] Did I see the shade [Ab] of a sailor, on the bridge to the [Eb] wheelhouse paved?
[Gb] How fast through [Abm] the wheel, the rock [Ab] of the ship, [Dbm] squinted [Gb] my eyes [Abm] in the wind.
[Gb] For the [Ab] ship had turned [Db] into [Ab] wind, [Ebm] against [Ab] the storm [Eb] to break.
And [Ebm] all [Ab] you need for sailor's hat, [Abm] I saw my father's [Bb] [Abm] face.

[Abm] [Dbm] [Ebm] So [Ab] where to this forecast, please offer it [Db] for me.
And the [Ab] bridge to heaven is broken, and [E] you're lost [Gb] on the [Ab] wild, wild [Abm] sea.
[E] And you're lost [Gb] on the [Ab] wild, wild sea.
[E] You're lost on [Gb] the [Ab] wild, wild sea.
And [Dbm] you're lost on [Gbm] the [Ab] wild, wild sea.
