Key of Ab (chords are in the key of G)
[G]North by [Em]north— le[C]st we have to s[G]ettle down
[G]we can [Em]sail without the [C]wind in this [G]town
[Em]Things that L[C]ondon never s[G]aw
[Em]Northern [C]winters start to [G]thaw;
To [Em]islands [C]on the sea,
[D]lands I've [G]never seen,
[Em]things will get [C]calmer&[D]#151; f[G]ollow me.
[Em] You said a [D]long long time a[D/C#]go
you were h[C]appy being someone
[Em] Let's go f[D]ar far far from h[D/C#]ome
I'll be gl[C]ad to be with someone
(interlude)
[G] [Em] [C] [G]
[G]Land pneum[Em]onia, your [C]engines in re[G]pair;
[G]plant beg[Em]onias, and [C]orchids in your h[G]air.
[Em]Contine[C]nts all made of cl[G]ay
[Em]Dreamers [C]leaving every d[G]ay
To [Em]islands [C]on the sea,
[D]lands I've [G]never seen,
[Em]things will get [C]calmer&[D]#151; f[G]ollow me.
[Em] You said a [D]long long time a[D/C#]go
you were h[C]appy being someone
[Em] Let's go f[D]ar far far from h[D/C#]ome
I'll be gl[C]ad to be with someone

[G]Someone [Em]told me you had [C]oceans in your [G]eyes
[G] Cold as [Em]shadows over [C]European [G]skies
[Em]Coasting [C]out the shallow [G]day
[Em]Leaving [C]London in [G]decay
To [Em]islands [C]on the sea,
[D]lands I've [G]never seen,
[Em]things will get [C]calmer&[D]#151; f[G]ollow me.
