Verse 1:
G         D      Em         C
  Sailors on the sea are we heading
G       D       Em          C
  clear for the edge of the ocean?
G            D
  There's no city that
Em        C          G    D    Em C
keeps you king for a gypsy

Verse 2:
G            D
  And are we guided
Em      C
by some vision?
G         D
  All our moves adding
Em       C       G
up to an ancient arc
       D           Em
We are free of the canyon
C        G       D Em C
cliff of my heart


Chorus 1:
Am               C
  The river flows it takes
     G         Em D    Am
ahold and it's running through

  Your mind's stuck in an ancient war
G             D            Em
  And all you need is the space
        C         G       D Em

And she will take you
