Em Em9
An old man by a seashore
C
At the end of day
D C
Gazes the horizon
D Em
With seawinds in his face
Em Em9
Tempest-tossed island
C
Seasons all the same
D C
Anchorage unpainted
D Em
And a ship without a name
Em Em9 C
Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard
D C D Em
He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world
Em Em9 C
Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts
D C D Em
The ones on their travels homeward from afar
Em C G D Em
This is for long-forgotten
C G Am Em
Light at the end of the world
C G D Em
Horizon crying
C G Am
The tears he left behind long ago
INTRO
Em Em9
The albatross is flying
C
Making him daydream
D C
The time before he became
D Em
One of the world's unseen
Em Em9
Princess in the tower
C
Children in the fields
D C
Life gave him it all:
D Em
An island of the universe
Em Em9
Now his love's a memory
C
A ghost in the fog
D C
He sets the sails one last time
D Em
Saying farewell to the world
Em Em9
Anchor to the water
C
Seabed far below
D C
Grass still in his feet
D Em
And a smile beneath his brow
Em C G D Em
This is for long-forgotten
C G Am Em
Light at the end of the world
C G D Em
Horizon crying
C G Am
The tears he left behind so long ago
