Verse
D F C
So they rode the sea, it went on and on
F C
They were years away, though it seemed so long
F C
But the captain never told them what he knew
F C
As the poor ship laboured on through the endless blue
G C
[Verse 2]
F C
Oh, the storm was strong and the ship was so frail
F C
But they stumbled on raising broken sails
F C
And they held the heavy sky on their open hands
F C
And they dreamed of when their poor feet would touch the land
G C
[Refrain]
F C
Mabey we're going 'round in circles
F C
Where is this place we're going to?
F C
Does anybody know we're out here on the waves?
F C
And are any of our signals coming through?
G C
F C
We're going 'round in circles
F C
We have no single point of view
F C
And like the clouds that turn to every passing wind
F C
We turn to any signal that comes through
G C
[Verse 3]
F C
At the edge of the sea were the signs of the dove
F C
But the wrong way out and the wrong way up
F C
We pushed the empty frame of reason out the cabin door
F C
No, we won't be needing reasons anymore
