[Verse 1]
Bm B5
An old man by a seashore
G
At the end of day
A D5
Gazes the horizon
A Bm
With seawinds in his face
Bm B5
Tempest-tossed island
G
Seasons all the same
A D5
Anchorage unpainted
A Bm
And a ship without a name
Bm B5 G
Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard
A D5 A Bm
He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world
Bm B5 G
Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts
A D5 A Bm
The ones on their travels homeward from afar
[Chorus]
Bm G D Em Bm
This is for long-forgotten
G D Em Bm
Light at the end of the world
G D Em Bm
Horizon crying
G D Em
The tears he left behind long ago
(repeat intro riff)
[Verse 2]
Bm B5
The albatross is flying
G
Making him daydream
A D5
The time before he became
A Bm
One of the world's unseen
Bm B5
Princess in the tower
G
Children in the fields
A D5
Life gave him it all:
A Bm
An island of the universe
[Verse 3]
Bm B5
Now his love's a memory
G
A ghost in the fog
A D5
He sets the sails one last time
A Bm
Saying farewell to the world
Bm B5
Anchor to the water
G
Seabed far below
A D5
Grass still in his feet
A Bm
And a smile beneath his brow
[Chorus]
Bm G D Em Bm
This is for long-forgotten
G D Em Bm
Light at the end of the world
G D Em Bm
Horizon crying
G D Em
The tears he left behind long ago
[Instrumental]
(repeat the intro x2)
Bm G D Em Bm
This is for long-forgotten
G D Em Bm
Light at the end of the world
G D Em Bm
Horizon crying
G D Em
The tears he left behind long ago
[Outro]
(repeat the intro x2)
