Verse 1
G
F
C
Released from its cocoon
F
Em
She follows the moon beside her bed
G
F
C
G
to the window of her room
F
Em
He has fled to the street below
G
F
C
where the sun is chasing the moon
F
C
and spin him on her loom
Am
Em
For he only came to steal her warmth
F
C
and then leave her maroon
Dm
C
And now he's gone back to his ship
Dm
C
G
of sails after noon
F
Em
Didn't you see the trap you laid?
G
F
C
How could you trust its grin?
F
Em
It was an old tricky plate
Dm
C
F
C
G
and a hole it left you in
F
Em
How can I tie the dawn threads?
G
Dm
Where do I begin?
F
C
Am
Em
Let us walk to the river
F
C
and watch the sunlight swim
Am
Em
In the city they'll hear us talking
F
C
Through walls so thick yet thin
Dm
C
But now he's gone back to his ship
Dm
C
G
Do not be afraid of him
G
C
I'll not leave you to fly
F
Em
When you forget the sailor lied
C
G
favourite song
F
Em
You'll laugh when you remember
Dm
F
C
you cried on the pillow he lay on
Am
Em
Then you'll hear me talking,
F
C
with words I've invented for you
Am
Em
Fruit we share will taste sweeter,
F
C
than your dry lips ever knew
Dm
C
For now the ship has sailed,
Dm
C
G
G
and the sailor with it too
