F Dm C
F Dm G C [Verse 1]
F D It turned and it called
C F A new spell was breathing, through
D the towns
G Down the roadsides unveiled in
C streetlights,
D across the sea
F D C On island tides, our dreams need
D no keepers,
F D they too can call
G Summon shipyard bays, from the
C blackened sand
D F Iron rigging raise
D C Those voices cried with me
D C For the sails and their silence
F abandoned in reams
D C F White on the sea, sea, sea

[Chorus]
F D Well don’t say I'm a troubled man
G C
F G C F Your lies are late
D G C They stole from me my little life
F G C
F And left me lying in those same
D waters
C F D for which I used to write [Verse 2]
F D C Do you speak of their names?
D Now whispers on water, I'm with
F them now
G Drifting slowly away on Atlantic
C blue
D F Down the shipping lanes
D And though these islands are
C towers
F D In Paris I'm dreaming of months
C below
G her velvet nights
C F And wandering girls, green in an
D absinthe glow
F Would they lie with me?
C F On the sails in the silence
D abandoned in reams
C F D C Far from the sea, sea, sea [Chorus]
F D Well don’t say I'm a troubled man
G C
F G C F Your lies are late
D G C They stole from me my little life
F G C
F And left me lying in those same
D waters
C F D for which I used to write [Other]
C F They weren’t the same as the
D C photographs
F D But if you saw them I hope you’d
C call
F (D) F
