Verse 1:
Bb F
Long afloat on shipless oceans
Eb Gm
I did all my best to smile
Bb F
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
Eb Gm
Drew me loving to your isle
Bb Ab
And you sang
Eb
Sail to me, sail to me
Bb
Let me enfold you
Gm
Here I am
F
Here I am
Eb Gm
Waiting to hold you
Verse 2:
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you hare when I was fox?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken lovelorn on your rocks,
For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow:
O my heart, O my heart shies from the sorrow"
Verse 3:
I am puzzled as the newborn child
I'm as riddled at the tide
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Or should I lie with Death my bride?
Hear me sing, "Swim to me, Swim to me, Let me enfold you:
Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"

Capo 1st fret
Dm Bm Fm
Somewhere old memories echoed from the street
A
in a crying hole
Bm7 (addE)
Just a song from long ago
Bm9/E Fm6
when I lost my easy gods to the Harlem insect laws
G Gb Eb D*
I heard your baited moans and the passing cars
G Gb Eb D*
and the swirling songs and the black man's bones
G Gb Eb D*
through the walls and the stalls and the cackling calls
E5
you were there
Am D E
You were an island behind the sun
Am D E
Yes an island where my love could live
Am D E G
And life breathes from deep inside
E
i...i..i...i...i...inside
(Riff) E11
Mama Lie
I love you like a jungle fire

Black tan brown and white
Repeat the order of nature
And we've tried all the lovely little steps
That hope to turn the eyes and footsteps of you
Friend to lend for once
Behold that healing festival
Complete for an instant

The dance figure pure constellation
