[Intro]
Am C     Am G      Am G Am

Am                         D           G
Taking on water, sailing a restless sea
       Em  Am    C      Am
From a memory, a fantasy
                            D
The wind carries into white water
G             Em    Am         C       
Far from the islands don't you know you're

[Estribillo]
Em    D        C
Never going to get to France
     D                           Em
Mary Queen of chance, will they find you?
D     Em       C
Never going to get to France
        D                    Em
Could a new romance ever bind you?

[Instrumental]
Am   C G   Am G   Am C D

Am                                D
Walking on foreign ground, like a shadow
G          Em      Am    C
Roaming in far off territory
Am                            D
Over your shoulder stories unfold
        G            Em      Am     C    
You're searching for sanctuary, you know you're

[Estribillo]
Em    D        C
Never going to get to France
     D                           Em
Mary Queen of chance, will they find you?
D     Em       C
Never going to get to France
        D                    Em
Could a new romance ever bind you?

[Pre-Estribillo]
C       Am  D
I see a picture
G             C    D
By the lamp's flicker
C         Am     D
Isn't it strange how
G              C    D
Dreams fade and shimmer?

[Estribillo]
Em    D        C
Never going to get to France
     D                           Em
Mary Queen of chance, will they find you?
D     Em       C
Never going to get to France
        D                    Em
Could a new romance ever bind you?

[Instrumental]
Am   C G   Am G    Am C D
Am   C G   Am Em   Am C D

[Pre-Estribillo]
C       Am  D
I see a picture
G             C    D
By the lamp's flicker
C         Am     D
Isn't it strange how
G              C    D
Dreams fade and shimmer?

[Estribillo]
Em    D        C
Never going to get to France
     D                           Em
Mary Queen of chance, will they find you?
D     Em       C
Never going to get to France
        D                    Em
Could a new romance ever bind you?
