Richard Shindell - Castaway


CAPO: 3rd Fret


INTRO: C majorC G+G C majorC FF C majorC G+G

 C majorC       G+G      C majorC
I welcome you my little man
  FF       C majorC      G+G
Stolen from your sleepy land
        C majorC    FF       C majorC  FF
Cut loose from her, my callused hand
      C majorC G+G   FF   G+G
Branded you_____ an exile

   C majorC      G+G        C majorC
The ocean parted when you wailed
    FF      C majorC      G+G
And debris of your catastrophe
      C majorC   FF     C majorC  FF
Set sail inside a silver cup
    C majorC G+G FF      G+G
That she_____ handed to me


              C majorC
No ocean deep, no mountain tall
  G+G          C majorC
No liberty, no prison vault
  G+G          FF
Can keep my baby refugee
       C majorC   G+G
From his own inland sea


         C majorC   FF C majorC
Where he can play castaway__
       G+G  C majorC   FF C majorC
Where he can play castaway__
       G+G  A minorAm  FF
Where he can play castaway__


     C majorC        G+G      C majorC
Now on a dolphin's back I come to you
   FF     C majorC      G+G
Bounding from across the blue
  C majorC      FF      C majorC  FF
Swollen flood inside my vein
   C majorC G+G FF    G+G
To try_______ to explain

  C majorC     G+G     A minorAm C majorC
How someday far below the moon
    FF       C majorC      G+G
You may live beside a green lagoon
  C majorC          FF        C majorC  FF
And store up pearls for skipping stones
        C majorC G+G FF   G+G
And you will never______ be alone


             C majorC
Ocean fall or ocean rise
   G+G             C majorC
I, I see her deep, deep in your eyes
    G+G          FF
I'm an ocean apart from you
            C majorC    G+G
But you'll always be a part of me


         C majorC   FF C majorC
'Cause I can play castaway__
    G+G  C majorC   FF C majorC
Two can play castaway__
     G+G  A minorAm  FF C majorC
Three can play castaway__
    G+G  C majorC   FF C majorC
We all play castaway__
