forever [G] pleading in her.
[D] Forever writing [C] the
[D] fabled [G] August scales.
[C] [G]
And the ghosts of those who
[C] forever are [G] returning.
From [D] far apart
[C] or [D] in the [G] winter [C] stars.
[G] Driving boats on the earth [C] to make it home [G] for Christmas.
To catch [D] in fires [C] and [D] wild ones [G] waiting [C] are.

The islets stand now [C] like silent grave [G] miners.
Of times [D] gone by [C] when man [D] was in [G] his [C] prime.
