       C  H7      Em  Em6
One breath away from mother Oceania
      C         H7   Em
Your nimble feet make prints in my sands
Em6    C  H7      Em
You have done good for yourselves
          C
Since you left my wet embrace
H7      Em
And crawled ashore
Em6   C H7       Em
Every boy is a snake - is a lily
       C    H7   Em
Every pearl is a lynx - is a girl
      C    H7    Em
Sweet like harmony made into flesh
     C
You dance by my side
H7    Em
Children sublime

       C    H7
You show me continents
     Em
I see islands
       C    H7
You count the centuries
      Em
I blink my eyes
     C    H7      Em
Hawks and sparrows race in my waters
      C   H7
Stingrays are floating
    Em   Em6
Across the sky
    C  H7     Em      Em6
Little ones, my sons and my daughters
        C
Your sweat is salty
H7   Em7
I am why
Em6  C
I am why
H7  Em7
I am why
Em6      C
Your sweat is salty
H7  Em7
I am why
Em6  C
I am why
H7  Em7  Em6
I am why
