	D
	Up here in the crow's nest I am swimming through the breeze

	D	G	Em	A7
	On	e	las	t memory from the sun as it is setting by degrees

	D
	And high above an albatross is following its light

	D	G	Em	A7
	An	d	I w	ill sing to her as she flies by

	D
	On this beautiful night

Ahead is the horizon, always changing it stands fast

Far behind me are the desert islands shipwrecks of the past

And I have seen the cannons sounding in the early morning light

But I have left my battles for the day

On this beautiful night

Lonely are the sailors they're on this journey too

And each of us must make our unknown way upon the blue

So tonight we cast our worries float jetsam on the tide

And we watch them echo far away

	F#m
	On this beautiful night

	C#m
	The flat earth may end

	Em	A7	A
	We	may	sail off the edge and not be seen again

	F#m	C#m
	So I	sing and hope my song will form a rope of golden cords/chords

	Em	A7	A
	So	tha	t I can rescue someone else should they fall overboard

Some of us are pirates and some of us are damned

But all of us need all of us to ever find the land

And though the Passage of Good Hope may seem like a needle's eye

We're floating on tranquility

On this beautiful night

Up here in the crow's nest I am swimming through the breeze

One last memory from the sun...
