G                     B                    
In the morning you will breahte
G                           B                     
and in the evening you'll believe
         C                      D        
no more cramping in your style
              C                D
no more dampening your smile


G                       B              
Oh her house is homemade
               C                D
but she's leaving this island
G                 B                   
oh, will you row
               C             D
or with a sail and a wind
             G
will you go?

G            B                
Over the roadless land
         G                 B       
your world curves towards me
                C            D  
you came sailing across
          C               D
not relaying your loss


G                     B         
Oh I've waited so long
                    C                  D
my childish writing is stil there
         G                        B 
after all east house to Norway
        C                          D
aeroplane through the rain


G                       B               
Oh her home is handmade
                C                D
but she's leaving this island
G                 B                   
oh, will you row
               C             D
or with a sail and a wind
             G
will you go?
