If you smile at me you know I will understand

Cause that is something everybody everywhere does

In the same language

I can see by your coat my friend that you're from the other side

There's just one thing I got to know

Can you tell me please who won

You must try some of my purple berries

I been eating them for six or seven weeks now

Haven't got sick once

Probably keep us both alive

Wooden ships on the water very free and easy

Easy you know the way it's supposed to be

Silver people on the shoreline leave us be
C5                  E5
Very free and easy

Sail away where the mornin sun goes high

Sail away where the wind blows sweet and young birds fly

Take a sister THEN by her hand
 D5                                C5 D5
Lead her far from this barren land


( E5 G5 D5 )
Horror grips us as we watch you die

All we can do is echo your anguished cry and

Stare as all you human feelings die
 C5
We are leaving
           E5
You don't need us


( C5 E5 )

( E5 G5 D5 )
Go and take a sister by her hand

Lead her far from this foreign land

Somewhere where we might laugh again
 C5
We are leaving
           E5
You don't need us

( E5 G5 D5 )
Sailing ships on the water very free and easy

Easy you know the way it's supposed to be

Silver people on the shoreline leave us be
 C5
Very free
     E5
And gone
