LyricsWINDSAILby STEVE DAFOE 2004 Verse A Fmaj7 Cmaj7 The sun sets on the sea tonight. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Leaves it's pure golden ray. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 And we're here on the beach alone, Fmaj7 Cmaj7 And your're begging me to stay. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 But that sea keeps calling out to me. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Making whispers in the night. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 The choice is very hard to make. G Fmaj7 I just wanna see the light. G Fmaj7 I just wanna see the light. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 The moon on the water glistens with might. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 It cozies into Baja Bay. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 And now I know what I must do. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 She's calling me away. Chorus G Fmaj7 She's calling me away. G Fmaj7 She's calling me away. G Fmaj7 To go far away to stay. Verse B Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Oh windsail, oh my windsail. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 I built you with my hands. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 You keep me free and let me be. G Fmaj7 Let's go to other lands. G Fmaj7 Let's go to other lands. Chorus G Fmaj7 You keep calling me away. G Fmaj7 You keep calling me away. G Fmaj7 To go far away to stay. Verse C Fmaj7 Cmaj7 The anchor's up, the ropes are in. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 The sail's in full bloom above. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 I look back to the dock and see, Fmaj7 Cmaj7 The women that I love. Chorus G Fmaj7 The women that I love. G Fmaj7 And she's begging me to stay. G Fmaj7 And not go that far away. Verse C Fmaj7 Cmaj7 But that sea keeps calling out to me, Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Making whispers in the night. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 The choice is hard to make. Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Is it her or the sails so bright? G Fmaj7 Her or the sails so bright? G Fmaj7 Her or the sails so bright? G Fmaj7 I just wanna see the light. G Fmaj7 I just wanna see the light.
