[Intro] C G Am G C G Am G C [Verse]
               G                     Am
The lazy, hazy day is picking up the heat

   G                                              C
On ripening fields of maize, hot earth beneath my feet

                           G
Guess I'll hit the road to find you

           Am                 G     F
Let luck decide who gives the ride
[Pre-Chorus]
                  D           F
So many things to say to you

                           D
Of love and life and who we are
[Chorus]
        C                  G
So I'll sing this song for you

            Am  G
On Rui's guitar...

        C                  G
So I'll sing this song for you

            Am  G
On Rui's guitar...
[Instrumental] C G Am G C [Verse]
                      G                            Am
This verge is full of flowers that come up year on year

              G                               C
Sunshine into showers, still no one's passing here

                    G
I need someone to remind me

         Am                G        F
Of water good, my memory's blurred
[Pre-Chorus]
                  D           F
So many things to say to you

                           D
Of love and life and who we are
[Chorus]
        C                  G
So I'll sing this song for you

            Am  G
On Rui's guitar...

        C                  G
So I'll sing this song for you

            Am  G
On Rui's guitar...
[Instrumental] F D F D C G Am G C [Verse]
                   G                       Am
The sailor and the song, the danger and bravado

                  G                          C
Of how he carried on and the loneliness that followed

                        G
Throwing dice for the direction

       Am                     G     C
Of the breeze, through random seas
[Verse]
                    G                         Am
Oh, heaven help the soul that never finds its home

             G                    C
Forever in a hole, always far too wrong

                            G
Now the headlights blind my eyes

          Am              G      F
Redeeming light, into the night
[Pre-Chorus]
                  D           F
So many things to say to you

                           D
Of love and life and who we are
[Chorus]
        C                  G
So I'll sing this song for you

            Am  G
On Rui's guitar...

        C                  G
So I'll sing this song for you

            Am  G
On Rui's guitar...
[Outro]

Rui's guitar...
