In The Sky

Intro: | | | | % | Are you home from the sea My soul balladeer You've been away roamin' Far away from here Weathered a storm Your heart unafraid Crossed every ocean In the boat that you made Been blowin' your horn Scarin' the spooks No crotchets or quavers In your books Gone sailin' all night Straight in the vein Like a bird on his own flight In his domain In the sky In the sky | | | | % | Runnin' in on the tide With the first of the stars The moon on the water And the sound of guitars Glide into the homin' As the night falls Tie up in the haven By the old harbor wall And the hard-bitten stranger Deaf as a post Who stands at the fire Where a poet's dreams roast He can't know the story He can't feel the pain And all of the glory Falls around him like rain In the sky In the sky | | | | % | | | | | | | % | You're a light in the dark Beacon of hope And strong as a sea boat Strong as a rope And the vagabond wind Whispers over the bay And the songs and the laughter Are carried away In the sky In the sky | | | | % | In the sky In the sky | | | | % | | | | | | | x2 | | | | | | % | | | | | | | | | | | | | % | x2 | |
