D (xx0232@1)             A (x02220@1)      G (320003@1)            D (xx0232@1) Like a simple question looking for an answer

    D (xx0232@1)             A (x02220@1)            G (320003@1)        DBut (xx0232@1)what if I don't find you when I-- have landed
D (xx0232@1)                  A (x02220@1)           G (320003@1)           D (xx0232@1) Would you leave me here to die on your shore stranded?
|*   D (xx0232@1)                  A (x02220@1)              G (320003@1)   D (xx0232@1)*|
