Tom: E
E A B E A B
[Verse 1]
E C#m
The dissonant voice of the sea,
D C#m B Bm
who is singing the sounds of the deep
D C#m F#m
As they sing of the ages asleep,
E A B
not so near or so far
[Verse 2]
E C#m
And the old masters wind of the waves,
D C#m Bm
sped forth for the free men and slaves
D A F#m
And whispers of secrets it saves,
E A B
and about whom they are
[Verse 3]
A G#m B
And the workings of sunshine and rain,
A G#m B
and the visions they paint that remain
E C#m
Pulsate from my soul to my brain,
B
in a Spanish Guitar
[Verse 4]
E C#m
And the beggar who sits in the street,
D C#m Bm
on his miserable throne of defeat
D A C#m
Envisions no wealth there to meet,
F#m E A B
thinking nowhere is far
[Verse 5]
E C#m
And the laughter of children employed,
D A Bm
by the fantasies not yet destroyed
D C#m F#m
By the dogmas of those they avoid,
E A B
knowing not what they are
[Verse 6]
A G#m B
And the right and the wrong and insane,
A G#m B
and the answers they cannot explain
E C#m
Pulsate through my soul and my brain,
B B7
in a Spanish guitar
[Instrumental]
E C#m D C#m D C#m F#m E A B E C#m D A Bm D F#m E A B
[Verse 7]
E C#m
To play on a Spanish guitar,
D C#m Bm
with the sun shining down where you are
D C#m F#m
Just a skipping and singing a bar,
E A B
from the music all around
[Verse 8]
E C#m
Just to laugh through the columns of trees,
D C#m Bm
or to soar like a seagull in breeze
D C#m F#m
Or to stand in the rain if you please,
E A B
and to never be found
[Verse 9]
A G#m B
And the workings of sunshine and rain,
A G#m B
and the visions they paint that remain
E C#m
Pulsate from my soul to my brain,
B
in a Spanish Guitar
[Verse 10]
E C#m
To play on a Spanish guitar,
D C#m Bm
with the sun shining down where you are
D C#m F#m
Just a skipping and singing a bar,
E A B
from the music all around
