Am
Overhead the albatross

      Em
Hangs motionless upon the air

    Dm
And deep beneath the rolling waves

   E7
In labyrinths of coral caves

    Am
The echo of a distant time

      Em
Comes willowing across the sand

    Dm                           E7
And everything is green and submarine

    A
And no one showed us to the land

    E
And no one knows the wheres or whys

    Dm
But something stirs and something tries

E7                F          Am
Starts to climb towards the light
[Interlude] F7 Am F7 Am F7 C G G# [Verse 2]
Am
Strangers passing in the street

   Em
By chance two separate glances meet

    Dm                         E
And I am you and what I see is me

    Am
And do I take you by the hand

Em
And lead you through the land

    Dm                            E7
And help me understand the best I can

    A
And no one calls us to move on

    E7
And no one forces down our eyes

    Dm
And no one speaks and no one tries

E7           F           Am
No one flies around the sun
