Chords for Windward Away - Archie Fisher

[C] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [Bb] _ Love [F] will come, [Gm]
love will [Bb] go, as the seas roll on [Eb] forever.
_ [Gm] And lost [F] love has [Bb] the everlasting flow of a never [Eb]-ending river.
_ [Gm] And it's [F] not an [Eb] easy [Bb] reckoning, _ but sometimes I [Eb] have the notion
[Bb] _ _
_ That womankind [Gm] can _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Gm]
sail _ [Eb] unarrested.
So she, _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ for [Bb] a tall [F] ship, came [Bb] to windward away on a grey Atlantic [Eb] morning.
_ [Gm] She showed [F] no lights [Bb] or colors the hour before [Ebm] the dawning.
[Gm] On a full [F] rigged run [Bb] to the rising sun, she reached a [Eb] star but quarter.
_ [Gm]
And [Bb] I'll never forget [Gm] the name [Eb] she bore.
_ _ _ _ [Bb] She was [Gm] called [D] the [Eb] _ Neptune's Daughter. _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ [Fm] _ _ _ [Bb] Her sails [F] were white [Gm] as ivory, [Bb] _ and her rigging sang [Eb] like harp strings.
[Bb] Her spars [F] were [Bb] black as ebony, and her wheels spun free [Eb] of _ [Gm] lashings.
Her cloak [Fm] of grey [Bb] was the spindrift's spray, but she split the waves [Eb] asunder.
[Bb] I can see [Dm] her [Gm] now as she crossed our [Eb] bow, _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
[Gm] gazed into [Eb] silent wonder.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [Bb] Her course [F] was set [Gm] by [Bb] destiny, and no helmsman's hand [Eb] could change her.
[Gm] We hailed [F] her and [Bb] we signaled, you are standing [Eb] into danger.
_ [Bb] But she left [Fm] us free [Bb] on the westerly, and I watched her [Eb] pale sail sinking.
[Gm] And if [Bb] only [Gm] I was upon [Eb] her, _ _ _ [Bb] it [Cm]
was [D] all the [Eb] time. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ [Bb] For love [F] will come, [Gm] and love will [Bb] go, as the years roll [Eb] on forever.
_ [Bb] _ And lost [F] love has the [Bb] everlasting flow of a never [Ebm]-ending river.
[Gm] And it's not [F] an easy [Eb] _ [Bb] reckoning, but sometimes [Eb] I have the [Bb] notion
that _ womankind, [Gm] her [Eb] heart and mind, _ _ [Bb] _ is a [Cm] [D] tall ship _ [Eb] on the ocean. _ _
