                      D6           
He was named nineteenhundred 'td'
B7

                     Em        C  
In the ship`s belly lies his 
D  Em
cradle
                D       C        G
Had no birthday and no land of home
    D              Em
The ocean has no bounds
            B7   D6  G
Virginian sounds

                   D               G
And he faced the world from inside
                    D           C
The ball-room of splendid skies
             D         C
And on the grand piano
                    D          G
His hands light as butterflies
                   D               
He played for the rich and for the 
     G
poor
               D            C
Thrilling the hearts of all
                      D          
The world could have been beneath 
        C
his feet
                B7
Searching the call
                   Em
The voice of the sea

                D6           B7
Old chandelier tells a story
                Em     C   D   Em
Old piano still echoes in here
               D     C        G
Old ship lies rusted in the port
         D                Em
And the best years fade away
                    B7  D6  G
The splendour has gone

              D                  G
Not what he saw could hold him back
                D         C
It was what he didn`t see
             D                C
There was no end in this town
          D       G
Keys so eternally
              D          G
But this was god`s piano
                 D            C
He heard on the gangway there
              D           C
He couldn`t leave forever
                  B7
The sea to somewhere

G
Bow and stern
Em                  C
All the wishes between
  D         G
(wishes to yearn)
     Em                   Bm
The world outside is a dream
    D           B7         Em
(a lone dream, lone dream)
               C                   G
And when the whole world`s leaving
               D           Em
The music will always stay
           C               G
And if a story`s worth to tell
                 B7
The end will be far away
     Em    D         C      D   
The final notes lie mute upon 
    E    C
the sand

                 Bm
When land is a ship too big
   Em   D        C    Bm
A woman out of reach
               Em
A journey too far
    D          G
A whiff too strong
            F#         B
He didn`t exist for anyone

All the wishes between

(wishes to yearn)
     Em                   Bm
The world outside is a dream
    D           B7         Em
(a lone dream, lone dream)
               C                   G
And when the whole world`s leaving
               D           Em
The music will always stay
           C               G

                 B7
The end will be far away
     Em    D         C      D   
The final notes lie mute upon

the sand

Em           D       C
And in this lonesome end
       Em        B7        Em
Final notes lie mute upon sand..
