(EmBmAm)
If you smile at me you know I will understand
Cause that is something everybody everywhere does
In the same language
I can see by your coat my friend that you're from the other side
There's just one thing I got to know
Can you tell me please who won
You must try some of my purple berries
I been eating them for six or seven weeks now
Haven't got sick once
Probably keep us both alive

Wooden ships on the water very free and easy
Easy you know the way it's supposed to be
Silver people on the shoreline leave us be
CEm
Very free and easy
(EmC)
Sail away where the mornin sun goes high
Sail away where the wind blows sweet and young birds fly
Take a sister THEN by her hand
DCD
Lead her far from this barren land
(EmGD)
Horror grips us as we watch you die
All we can do is echo your anguished cry and
Stare as all you human feelings die
C
We are leaving
Em
You don't need us
(CEm)
(EmGD)
Go and take a sister by her hand
Lead her far from this foreign land
Somewhere where we might laugh again
C
We are leaving
Em
You don't need us
(CEm) D
(EmGD)
Sailing ships on the water very free and easy
Easy you know the way it's supposed to be
Silver people on the shoreline leave us be
C
Very free
Em
And gone
