Verse 1:
A augmentedA E MajorE
Long afloat on shipless oceans,
D MajorD F# minorF#m
I did all my best to smile
A augmentedA E MajorE
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Drew me loving to your isle.
A augmentedA Asus2/G
And you sang, "Sail to me,
D/F#D/F# A augmentedA
Sail to me, let me unfold you."
A augmentedA G+G E MajorE D MajorD
Here I am, here I am waiting to hold you.
Verse 2:
A augmentedA E MajorE
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Were you here when I was forced out
A augmentedA E MajorE
Now my foolish boat is leaning,
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Broken, lovelorn on your rocks.
A augmentedA Asus2/G
For you sing, "Touch me not,
D/F#D/F# A augmentedA
Touch me not, come back tomorrow."
A augmentedA G+G E MajorE D MajorD
Oh my heart, oh my heart shies from the sorrow.
Verse 3:
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
Well I'm as puzzled as a new-born child,
F# minorF#m
I'm as riddled as the tide
A augmentedA E MajorE
Should I stand amid the breakers?
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Or should I lie with death my bride?
A augmentedA Asus2/G
Hear me sing, "Swim to me,
D/F#D/F# A augmentedA
Swim to me, let me enfold you."
A augmentedA G+G E MajorE D MajorD
Here I am, here I am waiting to hold you.
