I first heard this song on youtube, from a clip on the Monkees TV show. I wanted to it but I couldn't find a decent enough tab, so I did it myself. This is my first tab, so I apriciate some feed back and possibly some of the picking patterns. Email me at [email protected] if you have any suggestions about this tab. Thanks Dsus2/C: E-0- G/B: E-0- B-3- B-3- G-2- G-0- D-0- D-0- A-3- A-2- E-x- E-x- [Intro]

[Verse 1]
D              A
Long afloat on shipless oceans,

G            Bm
I did all my best to smile

D                 A
'Til your singing eyes and fingers

G              Bm
Drew me loving to your isle.

D            Dsus2/C
And you sang, "Sail to me,

G/B                  D
Sail to me, let me unfold you."

Bm                   A          G
Here I am, here I am waiting to hold you.
[Verse 2]
D               A
Did I dream you dreamed about me?

G                  Bm
Were you hare when I was fox?

D              A
Now my foolish boat is leaning, 

G               Bm
Broken, lovelorn on your rocks.

D             Dsus2/C
For you sing, "Touch me not, 

G/B                       D
Touch me not, come back tomorrow."

Bm                       A              G
Oh my heart, oh my heart shies from the sorrow.
[Verse 3]
D              A
I'm as puzzled as the oyster,

G               Bm
I'm as troubled as the tide

D               A
Should I stand amid the breakers?

G                    Bm
Or should I lie with death my bride?

D             Dsus2/C
Hear me sing, "Swim to me, 

G/B                  D
Swim to me, let me enfold you."

Bm                          A          G
Oh my heart, oh my heart is waiting to hold you.
