Dsus2
Seabirds fly the salty wind
East to South – North to West
Am7 F G6
See us go, as they go, across the borderlines
[Verse 1]
Dsus2 F
I can feel the fear hang heavy on the water
G6 Dsus2
Glinting sharply with the pale moonlight
Dsus2 F
Mothers hold on tightly to your children
G6 Dsus2
As the waves are breaking violently tonight
Dsus2
[Chorus 2]
Dsus2
Seabirds fly the salty wind
East to South – North to West
Am7 G6
Can we go, as they go, across the borderlines?
Dsus2
[Verse 2]
Dsus2 F
I hear yelling, I hear crying, I hear praying
G6 Dmsus
As the ocean threatens us on all four sides
Dsus2 F
The water rises deeper every minute
G6 Dsus2
This vessel cannot bear the burden of our load
[Chorus 2]
Dsus2
Seabirds fly the salty wind
East to South – North to West
Am7 G6
Can we go, as they go, across the borderlines?
Dsus2
[Verse 3]
Dsus2 F
One by one the children have grown silent
G6 Dsus2
From their mother’s arms, they float away
Dsus2 F
The roaring sea will wash our quiet bodies
G6 Dmsus
Upon the foreign shore, but our souls will find a way
[Chorus 3]
Dsus2
And with seabirds fly the salty wind
East to South – North to West
A7 G6
See us go, as they go, across the borderlines
[Chorus] X5
Dsus2
Seabirds fly the salty wind
East to South – North to West
A7 G6
See us go, as they go, across the borderlines
Dsus2
Seabirds fly the salty wind
East to South – North to West
A7 G6
See us go, as they go, across the borderlines
Dsus2
Seabirds fly the salty wind
East to South – North to West
A7 G6
See us go, as they go, across the borderlines
Dsus2
Seabirds fly the salty wind
East to South – North to West
A7 G6
See us go, as they go, across the borderlines
Dsus2
Seabirds fly the salty wind
East to South – North to West
A7 G6
See us go, as they go, across the borderlines
