A C#m
Go and tell Lord Grenville that the tide is on the turn
F#m D E A Bm
It's time to haul the anchor up and leave the land astern
C# D B
We'll be gone before the dawn returns
A G D Fm G A
Like voices on the wind
A... (repeat previous)
Go and tell Lord Grenville that our dreams have run aground
There's nothing here to keep us in this shanty town
None of us are caring where we're bound
Like voices on the wind
A D E
And come the day you'll hear them saying
E7 A
They're throwing it all away
D E C# F#m F Dm C#maj7
Nothing more to say, just throwing it all away
Ab Abm Eb F
(the riff between that break and the next verse goes something like this: )
Bb F C F
(verse same as before)
Go and fetch the captain's log and tear the pages out
We're on our way to nowhere now, can't bring the helm about
None of us are left in any doubt
We won't be back again
Send a message to the fleet they'll search for us in vain
We won't be there among the reaches of the Spanish Main
Tell the ones we left home not to wait
Won't be back again
And come the day you'll hear them saying
They're throwing it all away
Nothing more to say, just throwing it all away
Em G D
Our time is just a point along a line
Dm A
That runs forever with no end
Em G D
I never thought that we would come to find
Dm A Dm A Dm A
Ourselves upon these rocks again, oh no
A Amaj7 A7 D Dm A
A C#m
Go and tell Lord Grenville that the tide is on the turn
A C#m A C#m...
