[Intro]
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
[Verse 1]
D5 Dm7 D7sus4
Peridots and periwinkle blue medallions
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
Gilded galleons spilled across the ocean floor
D5 Dm7 D7sus4
Treasure somewhere in the sea and he will find where
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
Never mind their questions, there's no answer for
D7sus4 D6 A4
The roll of the harbor wake
D7sus4 D6 A4
The songs that the rigging makes
D7sus4 D6 A4
The taste of the spray he takes
Gsus2
And he learns to give
A4
He aches and he learns to live
Bbmaj7
He stakes all his silver
G G7sus4
On a promise to be free
G G7sus4
Mermaids live in colonies
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
All his sea dreams come to me
[Break]
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
[Verse 2]
D5 Dm7 D7sus4
City satins left at home, I will not need them
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
I believe him when he tells of loving me
D5 Dm7 D7sus4
Something truthful in the sea your lies will find you
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
"Leave behind your streets", he said, "And come to me"
D7sus4 D6 A4
Come down from the neon nights
D7sus4 D6 A4
Come down from the tourist sights
D7sus4 D6 A4
Run down 'til the rain delights you
Gsus2
You do not hide
A4
Sunlight will renew your pride
Bbmaj7
Skin white by skin golden
G G7sus4
Like a promise to be free
G G7sus4
Dolphins playing in the sea
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
All his sea dreams come to me
[Break]
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
[Verse 3]
D5 Dm7 D7sus4
Seabird I have seen you fly above the pilings
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
I am smiling at your circles in the air
D5 Dm7 D7sus4
I will come and sit by you while he lies sleeping
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
Fold your fleet wings, I have brought some dreams to share
D7sus4 D6 A4
A dream that you love someone
D7sus4 D6 A4
A dream that the wars are done
D7sus4 D6 A4 Gsus2
A dream that you tell no one but the grey sea
A4
They'll say that you're crazy
Bbmaj7
And a dream of a baby
G G7sus4
Like a promise to be free
G G7sus4
Children laughing out to sea
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
All his sea dreams come to me
Dm9 Cmaj7sus2 D D4 D
All his sea dreams come to me
[Outro]
