C#m 
Overhead the albatross 
      G#m 
Hangs motionless upon the air 
    F#m 
And deep beneath the rolling waves 
   G# 
In labyrinths of coral caves 
    C#m 
The echo of a distant time 
      G#m 
Comes willowing across the sand 
    F#m                                G# 
And everything is green and submarine
[Refrain]
    C# 
And no-one showed us to the land 
    G# 
And no-one knows the wheres or whys 
    F#m 
But something stirs and something tries 
    G#              A 
And starts to climb towards the light
[Instrumentale]

C#m 
Strangers passing in the street 
   G#m 
By chance two separate glances meet 
    F#m                        G# 
And I am you and what I see is me 
    C#m 
And do I take you by the hand 
    G#m 
And lead you through the land 
    F#m                           G# 
And help me understand the best I can
[Refrain]
    C# 
And no-one calls us to move on 
    G# 
And no-one forces down our eyes 
    F#m 
And no-one speaks and no-one tries 
    G#            A 
And no-one flies around the sun
[Instrumentale]

C#m                           G#m 
Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes 
  F#m                       G# 
Inviting and inciting me to rise 
    C#m 
And through the window in the wall 
     G#m 
Come streaming in on sunlight wings 
  F#m                               G# 
A million bright ambassadors of morning
[Refrain]
    C# 
And no-one sings me lullabies 
    G# 
And no-one makes me close my eyes 
F#m 
So I throw the windows wide 
    G#          A 
And call to you across the sky
