Key:
INTRO: G D Em G C D G
D Em Once I tried to row
G C D G 'Cause you know I hate to fly
D Em So I set out from the coast
C D Em But got battered by the tide
A As I glided back to shore
D I raised an angry oar
C G D G And cursed that blue divide
D Em As if it weren't enough
G C D G To still be stranded on the wrong side
D Em I landed in the surf
C D Em When a breaker hit my blind side
A And when my clothes had dried
D I hung my head and cried
Continues after the ad
C G Bm Beside that blue divide
C Bm 'Cause all that time I thought
C Bm That you and I were lost
C A toss, long fallen wide
D G D C In that blue divide
D G D C D G That endless blue divide
D Em So I climbed up o___n a dune
G C D G And found Marconi with his radio
D Em He was looking kind of blue
C D Em 'Cause his antenna rusted long ago
A And sitting on the cliff
D We shared a handkerchief
C G Em Above that blue divide
A I waved it in the hope
D That you owned a telescope
C G Bm That could pierce that blue divide
C Bm I thought I was marooned
C Bm 'Til I caught sight of your balloon___
C Rising with the moon
D G D C Across that blue divide
D G D C That endless blue divide
D G D C Across that blue divide
D G D C That endless blue divide
D G D C Across that blue divide
D G That endless blue divide
