The Wild Wild Sea
6/4 Takt
Eb/Db C/Db Eb(add9)/Db C/Db Eb/Db
  Cm7(addF) Dm7       Eb      F
I saw it   again this evening
      Cm7(addF) F/A         Gsus
Black sail in a pale yellow sky
    Cm7(addF) Dm7       Eb     F
And just as before in a moment,
       Cm7(addF)      F/A        Gsus
It was gone where the grey gulls fly. 
      Cm7(addF)Dm7          Eb F
If it happens again I shall worry
     Cm7(addF)F/A              Gsus
That only a strange ship could fly
       Cm7(addF) Dm7         Eb F
And my sanity    scans the horizon
       Cm7(addF)    F/A       Gsus
In the light of the darkening sky. 

     F(add9)    Gsus         C   G(no3rd)
That night as I walked in my slumber
  F(add9) Gsus        D     Dsus D
I waded into the sea strand
      F(add9)       Gsus        C7sus G(no3rd)
And I swam with the moon and her lover
  C(add9)    D            G(no3rd)
Until I lost sight of the land 

  F(add9)       Gsus         C   G(no3rd)
I swam till the night became morning
      F(add9)   Gsus      D   Dsus
Black sail in a reddening sky
D       F(add9)     Gsus      C7sus        G(no3rd)
Found myself on the deck of a rolling ship
   Cm7(addF)    Dm7        Gsus
So far where no grey gulls fly 

F(add9) Gsus         C Gsus
All    around me was silence
      Dm7(addG)  G7          C(add9)
As if mocking my frail human hopes
      D(add9)       G           C  G(no3rd)
And a question mark hung in the canvas
        Cm7(addF)     Dm7         Gsus
For the wind that had died in the ropes 

F(add9)     Gsus         C    Gsus
 I may have slept for an hour
Dm7(addG)   G7          C(add9)
 I may have slept for a day
      Dm7           G(no3rd) C(add9)
For I woke in a bed of white linen
        Cm7(addF)   Dm7       Cm
And the sky was the colour of clay.
F(add9) Eb Dm
Cm       F(add9)  Dm7
Do ba do do    day
Cm      F(add9) Eb    Dm Gsus
Do ba oo     do    ay
Ebmaj7/G C7sus Cm/G 

   Cm7(addF)    Dm7       Eb F
At first just a rustle of canvas
        Cm7(addF) F/A         Gsus
And the gentlest breath on my face
      Cm7(addF) Dm7           Eb    F
But a galloping line of white horses
          Cm7(addF)    Dm7      Gsus
Said that soon we were in for a race 

    F(add9)     Gsus        C   G(no3rd)
The gentle sigh turned to a howling
        F(add9)      Gsus       D     Dsus
And the grey sky she angered to black
D        F(add9)      Gsus           C7sus G(no3rd)
  And my anxious eyes searched the hor-i - zon
         Cm7(addF) Dm7       Gsus
With the gathering sea at my back 

    F(add9)       Gsus       C G(no3rd)
Did I see the shade of a sailor
       F(add9)              Gsus     D    Dsus
On the bridge through the wheelhouse pane
D     F(add9)     Gsus         C7sus        G(no3rd)
 Held fast to the wheel of the rocking ship
           Cm7(addF) Dm7        Gsus
As I squinted my    eyes in the rain 

        F(add9)      G     C        G
For the ship had turned into the wind
     F(add9)    G    D     Dsus
Against the storm to brace
D     F(add9) G               C   G
 And under-neath the sailor's hat
     Cm7(addF) Dm7   Gm
I saw    my father's face

Gm Ebmaj7 Bb/C Cm 3x 

        Dm7   G      C  G
If a prayer today is spoken
       D(add9) G   C(add9)
Please offer it for me
         D(add9)      G      C  G(no3rd)
When the bridge to heaven is broken
              Cm7      Dm7  Gsus
And you're lost on the wild wild sea
               Cm7(addF)       Dm7  G(no3rd)
And you're lost         on the wild wild sea
               Cm7(addF)       Dm7  G(no3rd)
And you're lost         on the wild wild sea
                      Cm7(addF)       Dm7       G(no3rd)
And you're (2/4)  lost         on the wild (4/4)   wild sea
