Off the coast [A] of Africa
[Bm] Bound for [F#m] South America [G] a world away from here
[D] Is a ship who sails the sea?
[Bm] Is a [F#m] man who's just like me and I [A] wish that [G] I was there
[A] [D] I'm lonely lighthouse not a [C] ship out in the [G] night.
[A] I'm watching [Bm] the sea
[D]
She's [A] come halfway around [D] the world to see the light and to stay away from me
[A] [Bm] There is a shipwreck [G] lying at my feet
[Bm] Some weary [A] refugee from the rolling [A] deep
[B] Ah, [F#] could you lose it [Bm] all and [E] fall for me?
Couldn't be shy
[D] Unrolling all my golden [A] moments into one
Like [D] shine like the sun [A] one more summer day
[D]
[A] [G] [D]
[A] [C] [D] But if you feel lost and lonely and don't know where [G] to go
[A]
Can you hear [Bm] this song [D] on the radio or even if you're [A] feeling healthy and [G] strong
You might like to sing [D] along
[Bm] But just because I might be [D] standing here
[B] That [A] don't mean I [D] won't be wrong this time
[Bm] You could follow me and [E] lose your mind
Couldn't be [D] shy
Unrolling all my [A] golden moments into one
Like [G] shine [D] like the sun one [C] more summer day
Like shine [D] like the lighthouse [A] one last summer night
[G] Flashing [D] on, flashing, [A] fading [C] away
[D] Off the coast [A] of Africa
[Bm]
Bound for [F#m] South America [G] a world away from here
[D]
Here's a ship [A] with sails to sea
[Bm] Here's a man [F#m] who's just like me
And I wish that I [G] was [D] there
[A] Like shine [D] like the sun [A] one more summer day
[G] Shine [D] like the lighthouse one [A] last summer night
See [D] me flashing on, flashing, [A] fading away
Couldn't be [D] shy
