The Dawntreader Chords by Joni Mitchell

_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Peridots and _ periwinkles bloom in _ Dervium
[D] _ _ [Dm] _
[D] Gilded [G] galleons spill _ [D] across the ocean floor _ _ _ _ _
Treasure [Dm] somewhere in the sea [D]
and he will find where
_ _ [Dm] _
_ Never [G] mind their questions, [D] there's no answer for _ _ _ _
_ All of the [B] harbor [G] awake, the songs that the rigging makes _
The taste [D] of the spray [A] he takes and [D] he learns to give
He aches [A] and he learns to live, he stakes [Bb] all his _ _ [Dm] silver
Children _ [D] _
[Dm] are promised to [G] be _ free, [D] _
mermaids live in _ colonies
[G] _
_ All who see dreams [D] come to me
_ _ _ _ [Dm] _
[D] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
City [Dm] Satans left at home, [D] I will not meet them _ _ _ _
I [G] believe him when he tells of [D]
me _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Something truthful [Dm] in the [D] sea or [A]
lies will find you
[D] _ _ [Dm] _
Leave [G] behind your streets, he said [D] _
to me _ _ _ _
Come down from the neon [A] _ [G] lights, come down from the tourist _ sites
Run down the overland delights, you, [D] you do not hide
_ Sunlight will [A]
renew your pride, skin white [Bb] by skin _ _ golden
[D] Like a promise [G] to be free, _ [D] _
dolphins playing in the sea _
_ All [G] who see dreams [D] come to _ _ me _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Seabird I [Dm] have seen you fly _ above the piling _ _ _ _ _
I am [G] smiling at your circles [D] in the air _ _ _ _ _
I will come [Dm] and sit by you [A] while he lies sleeping
_ [D] _ _ [Dm] _
[D] Fold your fleet [G] wings, I have [D] some dreams to share _ _ _ _
A dream that you love someone, a dream that the wars are done
A dream that you tell no one but the grey sea
_ They'll say [A] that you're _ crazy and a dream [Bb] of a _ _ _ baby
_ [D] _
_ Like a [G] promise to be free, [D] _
children laughing out to sea _
_ All [G] who see dreams [D] come to me _ _ _ _ _
_ All [G] who see dreams [D] come to me
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
