The Wild Wild Sea

Eb/Db Ddim D E

[Verse]
Dbm7      Ebm7       E   Gb7
I  saw it again this evening
Dbm7   Gb            Ab7
Black sail in a pale yellow sky
Dbm7        Ebm7        E  Gb
And just as before in a moment,
Dbm7                  Gb9  Ab7
It was gone where the grey gulls fly

[Verse]
B             Gb            
If it happens again I shall 
Gbmaj7 Gb
wor    ry
Gb          Abm
That only a strange ship could fly
Dbm7   Ebm7   E         Gb6
And my sanity scans the horizon
Dbm7                Gb        Ab7
In the light of the darkening sky

[Verse]
Gb6       Ab6                Bb9 
That night as I walked in my 
 Ab6
slumber
Gb6     Ab6          Eb
I waded into the sea strand
Gb6        Ab6               Bb6 
And I swam with the moon and her 
 Ab6
lover
Dbmaj7       Ab           Ab6
Until I lost sight of the land

[Verse]
Ab              Db           Ab
I swam till the night became morning
Gb6    Ab6                Eb
Black sail in a reddening sky
Gb6                 Ab6
Found myself on the deck of a 
rolling ship
Dbm7   Ebm7                Ab    Gb6
So far where no grey gulls fly

[Verse]
Ab            Db  Ab
All around me was silence
Ebm  Abmaj7              Db
As   if mocking my frail human hopes
Ab                            
And a question mark hung in the 
  Db Ab
canvas
Ab                    Abm     Db 
For the wind that had died in the
 Ab     Gb6
 ropes

[Verse]
Ab6               Db     Ab     Ebm
I may have slept for an hour
Ab6         Dbmaj7     Db
I may have slept for a day
Ab
For I woke in a bed of white linen
Dbm7    Ebm7                 Ab
And the sky was the color of clay

[Verse]
Dbm7            Ebm7      E6    
At first just a rustle of canvas
     Gbmaj7

Dbm7             Ebm7         Ab7
And the gentlest breath on my face
Dbm7   Ebm7              Eb
But a galloping line of white horses
Gb        Dbm          Ebm      Ab7
Said that soon we were in for a race

[Verse]
Gb6             Ab6         
The gentle sigh turned to a 
Dbmaj7 Ab
how    ling
Gb6      Ab6                    
And the grey sky she angered to 
Eb   Ab
black
Gb6     Ab6
And my anxious eyes searched the 
horizon
Dbm7     B         Gb        Ab
With the gathering sea at my back

[Verse]
Gb6           Ab6        Dbmaj7 Ab
Did I see the shade of a sail   or?
Gb6    Ab6                       
On the bridge through the 
    Eb   Ab
wheelhouse pane
Gb6        Ab6             
Held fast to the wheel of the 
   B       Ab6
rocking ship
Dbm7                         Ab
As I squinted my eyes in the rain

[Verse]
Gb6     Ab6               Db     
For the ship had turned into the 
Ab
wind
Gb6     Ab6       Eb
Against the storm to brace
Gb6     Ab6        Db       Ab
And underneath the sailor's hat
B        Ebm7 Ab7    E
I saw my fa   ther's face

If a prayer today is spoken
Ab     Db
Please offer it for me
Ebm                Ab        Db Ab
When the bridge to heaven is broken
B                      Abm7       
And you're lost on the wild, wild 
 Abm
sea
Dbm7       Ebm7        Ab
Lost on the wild, wild sea...
Dbm7        Abm7       Ab
Lost on the wild, wild sea...
B          B9          Ab
Lost on the wild, wild sea...
