CAPO: 5th Fret

Lady love, go back to sleep, dry the tears from your eyes,
   A minorAm        E minorEm       Dm7Dm7   G+G
But I cannot stay with thee until the morning,
    Fmaj7Fmaj7          A minorAm   G6G6     E minorEm       FF
For the dawn is breaking, and my ship is waiting for me, and I must go,
      C majorC      FF         G+G
But I'll be back, yes, before this year is over


    C majorC                FF     C majorC
And we sailed across the sea, ‘till we found America,
      A minorAm        E minorEm        Dm7Dm7  G+G
'Round the Cape of Storms we set our sails for home,
       Fmaj7Fmaj7          A minorAm   G6G6    E minorEm        FF
And when the sea was roaring, and the Lord I called to help my drowning men,
     C majorC        FF       G+G
I saw the light, yes, the candle in your window

  C majorC   E minorEm     FF      C majorC   E minorEm     FF
And I have brought you silver, and I have brought you gold,
  C majorC   G+G    FF       C/GC/G - G+G
And spices from the Indies in the hold
      C majorC    E minorEm   FF       C majorC     E minorEm  FF
I've seen ships on the horizon, that I'd swear were going down,
  C majorC   G+G     FF          C/GC/G - G+G
But now I know for certain, the world is round,
    FF    G+G     C majorC
I have seen, my eyes have seen.

"Oh, one day", says Galileo, "A man will reach the sky,"
   C majorC    G+G     FF        C/GC/G - G+G
"And see the world completely, from outside"
  C majorC   E minorEm    FF      C majorC    E minorEm    FF
And gazing down from yonder, on a world of blue and green,
   C majorC    G+G    FF        C/GC/G - G+G
He'll say with eyes of wonder, "I have seen,
    FF    G+G     C majorC
I have seen, my eyes have seen".
