Do#m  Fa#m  Do#m  Sibm  La  Sol#sus4  Sol#

Do#m
Overhead the albatross
      Sol#m
Hangs motionless upon the air
    Fa#m
And deep beneath the rolling waves
   Sol#
In labyrinths of coral caves

    Do#
The echo of a distant time
      Sol#m
Comes willowing across the sand
    Fa#m                       Sol#
And everything is green and submarine

    Do#
And no-one showed us to the land
    Sol#
And no-one knows the wheres or whys
    Fa#m
But something stirs and something tries
    Sol#              La
And starts to climb towards the light

Do#m  La  Do#m  La  Do#m  La  Mi  Si  Do

Do#m
Strangers passing in the street
   Sol#m
By chance two separate glances meet
    Fa#m                       Sol#
And I am you and what I see is me

    Do#m
And do I take you by the hand
    Sol#m
And lead you through the land
    Fa#m                          Sol#
And help me understand the best I can

    Do#
And no-one calls us to move on
    Sol#
And no-one forces down our eyes
    Fa#m
And no-one speaks and no-one tries
    Sol#          La
And no-one flies around the sun

Do#m  La  Do#m  La  Do#m  La  Mi  Si  Do

Do#m  Sol#m  Mi  Fa#   (X2)

Do#m                         Sol#m
Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes
  Fa#m                      Sol#
Inviting and inciting me to rise
    Do#m
And through the window in the wall
     Sol#m
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
  Fa#m                          Sol#
A million bright ambassadors of morning

    Do#
And no-one sings me lullabies
    Sol#
And no-one makes me close my eyes
Fa#m
So I throw the windows wide
    Sol#         La
And call to you across the sky

Do#m  La  Do#m  La  Do#m  La  Mi  Si  Do  (X3)

Do#m  Sol#m  Fa#m  Sol# ...
