Em7 Am9
If you smile at me I will understand
Because that is something
Em7 Am9 Em7 Am9 Em7 Am9
Everybody everywhere does in the same language
Em7 Am9
I can see by your coat my friend you're from the other side
Em7
There's just one thing I've got to know
Am9 Em7 Am9
Can you tell me please, who won'
Em7
Say, can I have some of your purple berries'
Am9 Em7
Yes, I've been eating them for six or seven weeks now
Am9
Haven't got sick once
Em7 Am9
Probably keep us both alive

Em D A D
Wooden ships on the water, ve-ry free, and easy
Em D A D
Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be
Em D A D
Silver people on the shoreline let us be
Cadd9 Em9 Am9
Talkin 'bout very free, and easy
Em D A D
Horror grips us as we watch you die
Em D A D
All we can do is echo your anguished cries
Em D A D
Stare as all human feelings die
Cadd9 Em9 Am9 Em9 Am9
We are leaving, you don't need us
SOLO (play verse chords)
Em D A D
Go take a sister, then, by the hand
Em D A D
Lead her away from this foreign land
Em D A D
Far away, where we might laugh a-gain
Cadd9
We are leaving, you don't need us
Em9 Am9 Em9 Am9 Em9 Am9 Em9 Am9
Em9
And it's a fair wind
Am9 Em9 Am9
Blowin' warm out of the south over my shoulder
Em9 Am9 Em9
Guess I'll set a course and go
