[Intro]
G D C D x4
[Verse 1]
G D C D
What would you be if the waves set you free
G D C D
And the wind in your hair brought you sailing to me
G C G D
Tied up on the shore would you weary no more
G D C G
When will it be, when will it be
[Verse 2]
G D C D
What would I be if a hurricane came
G D C D
Would I be clever, would I be shamed
G C G D
Would I lie helpless, cast up on the flames
G D C G
What will I be, what will I be
[Chorus]
Em D G C
I will be here forever
Em D G C
Till the river runs into the sea
Em D
I will always be silent
G C
And hold my head up
Em D G C
And we will be sailors no more
[Verse 3]
G D C D
Where would we go To the sand or the snow
G D C D
Wander in memories or let them all go
G C G D
Would we be dreamers, helplessly so
G D C G
Where would we go, where would we go
[Chorus]
Em D G C
I will be here forever
Em D G C
Till the river runs into the sea
Em D
I will always be silent
G C
And hold my head up
Em D G C
And we will be sailors no more
[Chorus]
Em D G C
I will be here forever
Em D G C
Till the river runs into the sea
Em D
I will always be silent
G C
And hold my head up
Em D G C
And we will be sailors no more
Em D G C
We will be sailors no more

[Verse 4]
G
Let's run right out of the city tonight
D
With our hair tied up and lips sealed tight
Em C Em D
I will cry no more, I said I will cry no more
G
Like an empty tourist at the world fair
D
I could only stand and stare
Em C Em D
And let it pass me by, let it pass me by
G
I never should have said out loud
D
That I wanted to save the world
Em C Em D
But I let it slip away, I just let it slip away

[Verse 5]
G
The only thing I wanted to be
D
Was the perfect one who killed for free
Em C Em D
And I will try no more, I say I will try no more
G
But now we are together we won't turn back
D
Where the boats are burned and the ties are black
Em C Em D
And I will cry no more, I will cry no more
[Outro]
