Intro C#m F#m
The lady comes to the gC#mate
BDressed in lavender and C#mleather
C#mLooking North to the sea
BShe finds the weather fine
She hears the steAeple bells
RinAging through the orchard all the way from C#mtown
BShe watches seagulls fAly
SiAlver on the ocean stitching through the waves
The edges of the skC#my
Many pBmeople wander up the Dhills from all around Ayou
E A7M E
Making up your memories and thinking they have found you
They coC#mver you with G#mveils of Awonder as if you were a bEride
Young mC#men holding vG#miolets are Acurious to know if you havEe cried
And tAell you wEhy and aAsk you wEhy, eAitheEr way you AanswEer
E A7M E
Lace around the collars of the blouses of the ladies
E A7M E
Flowers from a Spanish friend of the family
C#m G#m A7M
The embroidery of your life holds you in and keeps you out
But you Esurvive, C#mimprisoned in your boG#mnes
A7M E
Behind the isinglass windows of your eyes
G#mAnd in the night, the irC#mon wheels rolling through the Arain
Down the Ahills through the long grC#mass to the sea
And in the dark, the hG#mard bells rinAmging with pain
A]Come away alone C#m B. E[C#mven now by the gBate with your long hair blC#mowing
And the colors of thBe day that lie along your arms
You must Abarter your life to make sure you are Bliving
And the crowd that has Acome, you give them the colors
AAnd the bells and the wind and the dC#mream
EWill there never be a prince
A7M E
Who rides along the sea and the mountains?
E A7M E
Scattering the sand and the foam into amethyst fountains
C#mRiding up the hG#mills from the beaAch in the long summer Egrass
C#mHolding the suG#mn in his hands and Ashattering the isinEglass
BmDay and night and day again and pDeople come and go away Aforever
While the sC#mhining suG#mmmer sea dances in the glaAss of your miError
While you seC#march the G#mwaves for loAve and your visions for a sEign
The kC#mnot of tears aG#mround your throat is Acrystallizing into your dEesign
And in the G#mnight, the irC#mon wheels roAlling through the rain
Down the hAills through the long grass C#mto the sea
And in the dark, the haG#mrd bells ringAing with pain
A]Come away alone, come away alone with me [C#m.
