This is how I play the song! Suggestions and corrections welcome.
[Intro]
Em A Bm x2
[Verse 1]
Em A Bm
Sail off, sail into the sun, and let everything that pains be undone
Em A Bm
Cast off the fabled leotard, flee the legions of FAKES by the shore
Em A Bm
And darkness and hunger are as maddening as the wild-whipping rains
Em A
And they move from the east, and they crawl to the west,
Bm
They have no patience for the wind nor its crest
[Chorus]
G A Bm
They said "Cast off, get away from this rock
G A Bm
I shall live another day and I curse the hell out of this rock
Em Bm
The Crystalline Cathedral is in the damndest spot!"
G A Bm
And turn to the wind like a hawk
[Verse 2]
Em A Bm
Ideal blade. Ideal lake that bears the stamp of the sun
Em A
Some owners shall rest when their property sleeps
Bm
But for the wicked that day shall never come
Em A Bm
And Dee don't see, that the end of the Sea, is like a needle prophesying the dawn
Em A Bm
And the enemy shakes, and the enemy weeps: who's going to call off this rain?
[Chorus]
G A Bm
They go: "Let us be away from this spot!
G A Bm
This is the blame-taking spot!
Em Bm
This is everybody's got a hole in their heart, and
Em Bm
This is everybody's got a darkness in their gut."
Em Bm
And the whole damn battalion's got to run from this spot
G A Bm
And flee from the black beak of the hawk
[Bridge]
G
A G
Shitty light over the waves
A G
Shitty light over the waves
A G
Shitty light over the waves
A
Shitty light over the waves

A
When you're rollin' into the country life, they're going
D
Do, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh,
A
Man, man, man, man, when you're rollin' into the country life, they're going
D
Do, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
A
When you're rollin' into the country life, they're going
D
Do, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh,
A
When you're rollin' into the country life, they're going
Bm
Do, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh,
