G Strummed throughout as backing. Intro: G C G x2
   G                     C           G
You wave at the sky with wide lovely eyes

G                  C       G
Waves and waves of love go by

G                               C       G
And through the garden with your secret key

G                     C           G        D
Down the tunnel that leads to the sea

                  C                G        D
Step on the beach beneath the iron skies

                       C           G        D
You wave and wave your wide lovely eyes

                  C        G
Crystal waves and waves of love

    D        C       G
You wave and say goodbye
C G x2
     G                     C           G
Your dress sighs with your wide lovely strides

    G                               C        G
And all along the street lately the stories abound

    G                                  C                  G
They've dismantled the fun fair and they've shut down the rides

   G                               C                    G         D
They've hung the mermaids from the streetlights by their hair

                              C           G         D 
And with wide lovely eyes you wave at the sky

                         C             G          D 
And me at the high window watching you ride

                          C        G         
The waves of blue and the waves of love

    D        C      G
You wave and say goodbye
C G
                    C           G
The night expands, I am expanding

G                      C            G
I watch your hands like butterflies landing

G                           C         G
All among the myths and the legends we create

    G                       C            G
And all the laughing stories we tell our friends
Close the windows, clear up the mess
            C          G 
It's getting late, it's darker and closer to the end
C G D
                       C        G    D
Through the tunnel and down the sea

                          C           G     D
And on the pebble beach your laces you untie

                       C       G      D
And arrange your shoes side by side

                       C           G    D  
You wave and wave with wide lovely eyes

                  C        G
Distant waves and waves of distant love

    D        C   G
You wave and say goodbye
Repeat G until end.
