Dm                    Bb
A mariner under a sky moonlit

Dm                Em       Am
On an island of a crewless ship

Fm                            Eb
A few decades of immortality ahead

Fm                   E
A one-man crew for a one-way trip

Dm                    Bb
Islands, islands everywher

Dm                   Am      A
I keep my range with crowded sails

Fm                                Eb
My waves, they kiss every shore I land

Fm                        E
Steep cliffs will mock my waving hand
[Interlude] Dm Dm Dm Dm C Dm Dm Dm Fm Dm Dm Dm Dm C Dm Dm F F C [Verse 2]
Dm
Islanders, villagers, universal mariners

                                     C
Calling me, guiding me, monsters far beneath

Fm                             Eb
Hurricanes on the way, lunatic weathervanes

Fm                      E
Shipwrecked lovers on a faraway cay

Dm                                       Bb
Passing by butterflies, fluttering for a day

Dm                          D
Jokers, jesters, Goddesses, hominidae

Fm                  Ebm
Deep delicious blue beneath

Fm                  E
I'll steer wherever tomorrow is near
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
Light a beacon so I can navigate

Dm
Through the tempest, through the madness

                                 Eb             F
Light a homefire for the sad man with a begging hand

Dm
Light a beacon so I can navigate

                                  D
Through the tempest following the quintet

Dm
Ride on the highest wave

Eb
Bring me to life

F
To them who dance in the daylight
[Chorus]

Sail and seek

    Bbm       Ab
The starbound quay

Calling you, calling me

To be a part of your story

Bm                            Gm
Here raining ash to cover the dead

                 Dm
An island of the past wrecks

               Bb      Eb
Of you, of the endless sundown

Bm                       Gm
Hemlock meadows, deepest quicksand

             Dm
Empty harbor by a wasteland

Bb
Mirrors, mirrors, everywhere

               Dm
For you of mad despair
[Interlude] Dm Dm Dm Cm Dm Dm Dm Dm Eb F Dm Dm Dm Dm Dm Dm F Eb [Bridge]
Eb                      F
Friends, who were for a time

                   Gm
Now grapes of sour wine

                  F
Lords of a single fly

Bb                               F
Still, I rue no island of shared solitude
[Interlude] Gm Gm Gm Gm Gm Gm Gm Gm [Bridge]

You who glow in deepest woe

Gm
Let it be, retiree, the water's fine

Gm
Sail carefree
[Chorus]

The starbound quay

Calling you, calling me
