An [Bm]old man by a seashore [B9]
Mm B*
At the end of day
[A]Gazes the horizon[G]
With [A]seawinds in his[Bm] face
[Bm]Tempest-tossed i[B9]sland
Mm B*
Seasons all the same
[A]Anchorage unpainte[G]d
And a [A]ship without a n[Bm]ame
Bm B9 Mm B*
Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard
He [A]lightens the [G]beacon, light [A]at the end of wo[Bm]rld
Bm B9 Mm B*
Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts
The[A] ones on their [G]travels homew[A]ard from afa[Bm]r
(CHOURS)
[Bm]This is for[G] long[D]-for[A]gott[Bm]en
[Gm]Light at the [D]end of the wo[Em]rld [Bm]
Hor[Gm]izon[D] cr[A]ying[Bm]
The [Gm]tears he left be[D]hind long ag[Em]o
Th[Bm]e albatross is [B9]flying
Mm B*
Making him daydream
The time[A] before he [G]became
One of[A] the world's un[Bm]seen
[Bm]Princess in the to[B9]wer
Mm B*
Children in the fields
[A]Life gave him it [G]all:
An i[A]sland of the univer[Bm]se
[Bm]Now his love's a[B9] memory
Mm B*
A ghost in the fog
He s[A]ets the sails one l[G]ast time
Sayi[A]ng farewell to the[Bm] world
[Bm]Anchor to the [B9]water
Mm B*
Seabed far below
Gra[A]ss still in [G]his feet
And a smil[A]e beneath his br[Bm]ow
(CHOURS - End)
[Bm]This is for[G] long[D]-fo[A]rgo[Bm]tten
Li[G]ght at the e[D]nd of the [Em]world [Bm]
[G]Horiz[D]on cr[A]ying[Bm]
The[G] tears he left beh[D]ind so long ag[Em]o
