Sails chords by Elton John

Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)

E minorEm

E minor 7Em7
I viewed in my presence
A augmentedA
My hand on my forehead
E minor 7Em7
And sighting the liners
A minorAm
Of mad merchant seamen
E minor 7Em7
In search of the living
Am7Am7
Or the spices of China

Lucy walked gently
Between the damp barrels
And shut out my eyes
With the width of her fingers
Said she'd guessed the number
Of bales in the back room

E minor 7Em7
While the seagulls were screaming
C majorC
Lucy was eating
E minor 7Em7
Then we hauled up our colours
C majorC
The way the mother had told us
E minorEm
And together we just watched the sails

Lucy I said
In a passage of cotton kegs
Can we hold hands
I'm sure that it's warmer
Then the gulls ate the crumbs
