Capo 2. FRET
INTRO:
C D C D
E A
Better keep your distance from this whale
E A
Better keep your boat from going astray
C#m
Find yourself a partner and treat them well
E A
Try to give them shelter night and day
G
'Cos here in this blue light
E G
Far away from the fireside
E G D
Things can get twisted and crazy and crowded
Em
You can't even feel right
CHORUS:
C
So you dream of Columbus
D
Every time the panic starts
C
You dream of Columbus
D
With your maps and your beautiful charts
Em
You dream of Columbus
G D
With an ache in your travelling heart
A C#m
See how the cormorant swoops and dives
E A
Must be some thrill to go that deep
C#m
Down to the basement of this life
E A
Down to where the mermaid gently sleeps
G
Not like here in this blue light
E G
Far away from the fireside
E G D
Where things can get twisted and haunted and crowded
Em
You can't even feel alright
CHORUS:
Em D
And as tide must ebb and flow
Am Em
I am dragged down under
C D
And I wait the livelong day
Am Em
For and end to my hunger
C
So I dream of Columbus
D
Every time that the panic starts
C
I dream of Columbus
D
With my maps and my beautiful charts
Em
I dream of Columbus
G D
And there's peace in a travelling heart
C
I dream of Columbus...
