             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
