[Intro]

Bm Bsus2 Esus4 Em A G A Bm

(Begins with 4x melody intro.)


[Verse]

Bm                 Bsus2
An old man by a seashore
Esus4         Em
At the end of day
A            G
Gazes the horizon
A                     Bm
With seawinds in his face
Bm             Bsus2
Tempest-tossed island
Esus4           Em
Seasons all the same
A              G
Anchorage unpainted
      A              Bm
And a ship without a name


(Bm for 3 bars before singing 
continues.)


Bm            Bsus2         
Sea without a shore for the 
Esus4          Em
banished one unheard
A                 G
He lightens the beacon, light
A             Bm
at the end of world
Continúa después del anuncio
Bm          Bsus2        Esus4  
Showing the way lighting hope in
       Em
 their hearts

    A             G       A      
The ones on their travels 
        Bm
homeward from afar

(Bm for 1 measure before singing 
continues.)


[Chorus]

Bm      G    D   A   Bm
This is long for-got-ten
G            D          Em   Bm
Light at the end of the world
   G  D   A  Bm
Ho-ri-zon cry-in
    G               D          Em
The tears he left behind long ago

(2x Melody intro thing intercedes.)


[Verse]

Bm               Bsus2
The albatross is flying
  Esus4       Em
Making him daydream
    A           G
The time before he became
    A                Bm
One of the world's unseen
Bm              Bsus2
Princess in the tower
Esus4           Em
Children in the fields
A                G
Life gave him it all:
          A         Bm
An island of the universe

(4 measures of Bm and if you cool
you can say Ohh on the 3rd measure.)

Bm               Bsus2
Now his love's a memory
  Esus4        Em
A ghost in the fog
   A                  G
He sets the sails one last time
       A               Bm
Saying farewell to the world
Bm            Bsus2
Anchor to the water
Esus4      Em
Seabed far below
A              G
Grass still in his feet
      A                 Bm
And a smile beneath his brow

(Bm for 3 measures before singing 
continues.)


[Chorus]

Bm      G    D   A   Bm
This is long for-got-ten
G            D          Em   Bm
Light at the end of the world
   G  D   A   Bm
Ho-ri-zon cry-in
    G               D             Em
The tears he left behind so long ago
