Verse:
               G                     Am
The lazy, hazy day is picking up the heat
   G                                              C
On ripening fields of maize, hot earth beneath my feet
                           G
Guess I'll hit the road to find you
           Am                 G     F
Let luck decide who gives the ride

Pre-Chorus:
                  D           F
So many things to say to you
                           D
Of love and life and who we are

On Rui's guitar...

Verse:
                      G                            Am
This verge is full of flowers that come up year on year
              G                               C
Sunshine into showers, still no one's passing here
                    G
I need someone to remind me
         Am                G        F
Of water good, my memory's blurred

Pre-Chorus:
                  D           F
So many things to say to you

Of love and life and who we are

        C                  G

Verse:
                   G                       Am
The sailor and the song, the danger and bravado
                  G                          C
Of how he carried on and the loneliness that followed
                        G
Throwing dice for the direction
       Am                     G     C
Of the breeze, through random seas

Verse:
                    G                         Am
Oh, heaven help the soul that never finds its home
             G                    C
Forever in a hole, always far too wrong
                            G
Now the headlights blind my eyes
          Am              G      F
Redeeming light, into the night

Pre-Chorus:
                  D           F
So many things to say to you
                           D
Of love and life and who we are

Chorus:
        C                  G
So I'll sing this song for you
            Am  G
On Rui's guitar...
        C                  G
So I'll sing this song for you
            Am  G
On Rui's guitar...
