[Intro]
D A G  Em 

[Verse]
Em7  Am9
       Em7                Am9
If you smile at me I will understand
                 
Because that is something
Em7                              Am9  Em7          Am9  Em7  Am9
Everybody everywhere does in the same language
      Em7                                        Am9 
I can see by your coat my friend you're from the other side
             Em7
There's just one thing I've got to know
        Am9                   Em7            Am9                
Can you tell me please, who won'
 Em7
Say, can I have some of your purple berries'
 Am9                           Em7
Yes, I've been eating them for six or seven weeks now
            Am9    
Haven't got sick once
                 Em7         Am9
Probably keep us both alive

[Instrumental]
D A G

[Verse]
 Em                        D  A  D
Wooden ships on the water, ve-ry free, and easy
 Em                            D     A  D 
Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be
 Em                            D   A  D
Silver people on the shoreline let us be
             Cadd9          Em9   Am9
Talkin 'bout very free, and easy
Em                    D     A   D
Horror grips us as we watch you die
Em                         D A       D 
All we can do is echo your anguished cries
Em                 D  A     D
Stare as all human feelings die
       Cadd9              Em9    Am9   Em9   Am9
We are leaving, you don't need us

[Solo]
Em  D  A  D

[Verse]
Em                      D  A   D
Go take a sister, then, by the hand
Em                      D  A    D
Lead her away from this foreign land
Em                       D     A D
Far away, where we might laugh a-gain
       Cadd9
We are leaving, you don't need us

[Instrumental]
Em9     Am9    Em9    Am9    Em9    Am9    Em9    Am9

[Outro]
Em9                  
And it's a fair wind
Am9                                   Em9      Am9
Blowin' warm out of the south over my shoulder
           Em9                 Am9     Em9
Guess I'll set a course and go
