Key:
E B Esus E Bluegirls come in every size, some are wise and some otherwise
B Dm E They got pretty blue eyes, for an hour a man may change
Dm C D G For an hour her face looks strange, looks strange, looks strange
E B Marching to the promised land
Esus E Where the honey flows and takes you by the hand
B Dm E Pulls you down on your knees, while you're down a pool appears
Cdim Em Cdim C The face in the water looks up, and she shakes her head as if to say
D B That it's the last time you'll look like today [Chorus]
Amaj7 B E(add9) E Sail away, away, ripples never come back

F#m F#sus F# Amaj7 B E Gone to the other side, sail away, away [Verse]
E B The face that launched a thousand ships
Esus E Is sinking fast that happens you know
B Dm E The water gets below, seems not very long ago
Dm C D G Lovelier she was than any that I know
E B Esus E Angels never know it's time, to close the book and gracefully decline
B Dm E The song has found a tale, my what a jealous pool is she
Cdim Em Cdim C The face in the water looks up, she shakes her head as if to say
D B That the bluegirls have all gone away [Chorus]
Amaj7 B E(add9) E Sail away, away, ripples never come back
F#m F#sus F# They've gone to the other side
Amaj7 B E(add9) E Look into the pool, ripples never come back
F#m F#sus F# Dive to the bottom and go to the top, to see where they have gone
Amaj7 B E(add9) E Oh they've gone to the other side, ripples never come back
F#m F#sus F# Sail away, away
Amaj7 B E(add9) E Sail away, away, ripples never come back
