G
I'll cross ten oceans, and I'll cross ten seas
C
I am a gannet and I’m flying free
G
I was a sailor, been lost before
G                         D                
But now i'm a coming, coming home to shore

G
I lost a woman, the one that i love
G                    C
Thought she was given to me from the lord up above
G
I know that i'll find her, one of these days
G                             D                  
Somewhere in a land, that’s far away
G                 D                           
Yeah in a land, that’s far away

G
Grew up together, then we came undone
G                   C
And then I found out years later that we'd,  had us a son
G
My life it was empty, where could they be
G                                      D                G
One day I’m going to find them, but they wont see me
G                        D                        
Cos im just a ghost upon the sea


G
Broken hearted and flying lonely
G             C
Oh my wings are spread wide as I, I ride the tide
G
But I'm never reaching, those that I seek
G                   D                                                
My body is battered, and my wings are torn

G
Where's that sweet lady, oh wheres that sweet boy
G                          C
You know that I’d buy her dresses and that I’d buy him some toys
G
I'm never reaching, those that I seek
G                    D                                       
My body is battered, and my wings are torn

G                       D                               
How will I survive, those winter storms


G               D               G
Cos I'm just a ghost upon the sea
G               D               G
Yeah I'm just a ghost upon the sea


D                             C
