Key: B
Introduction:
Em D A
Been here for so long
Em D A
On the morrow I'll dare
G F#m Bm
Silent and distant
G F#m B
Reaching out, unaware
G F#m E Bm A
Stealing the whispers
G F#m Em
From my deepest request
D A
And you watch me
Em D A
Waiting for something new
G F#m Bm
My hands as empty
G F#m B
As my body and soul
G F#m E Bm
Could keep pretending
A G F#m B5
But in the heart I'd be gone
B5 G5 A5
Still stare at my face, but lost seem your eyes
B5 G5 A5
Keep hold of the sails against the blue sky
G5 F#5 B5
Oh, I'm intending
G5 F#5 B5
A way back to the sea
G5 F#5 E5
This emptiness burns inside and
B5 A5 G5 F#5
Leads on for endless miles
B5 A5 E5
Don't let me go (don't let me go)
B5 A5 E5
Away across the sea (don't let me go)
F#5 D5
It may be much more wide
G5 F#5 B5
Than what it seems to be
G5 F#5 B5
Oh, I'm still searching
G5 F#5 B5
The way back to be freed
G5 F#5 E5
The loneliness hangs around us
B5 A5 G5 F#5
However, we can't see
B5 A5 E5
Now let me go (now let me go)
B5 A5 E5
Away across the sea (now let me go)
F#5 E5 D5
The waves can't be as high
G5 F#5 E5
As they pretend to be
B5 A5 E5
And now I know
B5 A5 E5
In my heart, I won't forget
F#5 E5 D5
The sails against the blue sky
G5 F#5 Bm
That taught me how to live
Em D A
With no sorrow
Em D A
And tomorrow we'll share
G F#m Bm
Silence and distance
G F#m B
'Till our faults are repaired
G F#m E Bm
You'll be the mistress
A G F#m B Bm
Who I'll never forget
