-VERSE-
C
In the morning by the sea
Am C
As the fog clears from the sand, I
Am C
have no money in my hand, I
Bb F C
Have no home, I have no land
C
But it doesn’t trouble me
Am C
As I lay beside the fire
Am C
I am easy to inspire
Bb F C
There is little I require
-CHORUS-
F G
Wasn’t yours and you weren’t mine
Dm F
Though I’ve wished from time to time
F G
We had found a common ground, your
Am
Voice was such a welcome sound
Dm7 Fm C
How the emptiness would fill
F Am
With the waves and with your song
Am F
People find where they belong
C F
Or keep on
C F
-VERSE-
C
Through the never-ending maze
Am C
Where the way is seldom clear, there
Am C
Is no map or compass near, I
Bb F C
Drive a ship I cannot steer
C
Through the bleak and early morn
Am C
Where a stronger will is sworn
Am C
Where the moments move so slow and
Bb F C
Seem to never let you go
-CHORUS-
F G
When my hands are old and ache
Dm F
And my memory flickers dim
F G
And my bones don’t hold my skin
Am
There’s no place I haven’t been
Dm7 Fm C
I recall the days were few
F Am
That is all that I can do
Am F
Feel the carvings in the tree
F C F
That gives shade for you and me
C F
