Sails chords by Elton John (Ver. 2)

Em

Em7
I viewed in my presence
A
My hand on my forehead
Em7
And sighting the liners
Am
Of mad merchant seamen
Em7
In search of the living
Am7
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

Em7
While the seagulls were screaming
C
Lucy was eating
Em7
Then we hauled up our colours
C
The way the mother had told  us
Em
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
