Standard (EADGBE)

 If you smile at me I will understand

Because that is something

Everybody everywhere does in the same language

 I can see by your coat my friend you're from the other side

 There's just one thing I've got to know

 Can you tell me please, who won'

 Say, can I have some of your purple berries'

 Yes, I've been eating them for six or seven weeks now

 Haven't got sick once

 Probably keep us both alive

 Wooden ships on the water, ve-ry free, and easy

 Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be

 Silver people on the shoreline let us be

 Talkin 'bout very free, and easy

Horror grips us as we watch you die

All we can do is echo your anguished cries

Stare as all human feelings die

 We are leaving, you don't need us

Solo

Go take a sister, then, by the hand

Lead her away from this foreign land

Far away, where we might laugh a-gain

 We are leaving, you don't need us

And it's a fair wind

Blowin' warm out of the south over my shoulder

 Guess I'll set a course and go
