Verse
B D A
So they rode the sea, it went on and on
D A
They were years away, though it seemed so long
D A

D A
As the poor ship laboured on through the endless blue
E A
[Verse 2]
D A
Oh, the storm was strong and the ship was so frail
D A
But they stumbled on raising broken sails
D A
And they held the heavy sky on their open hands
D A
And they dreamed of when their poor feet would touch the land
E A
[Refrain]
D A
Mabey we're going 'round in circles
D A
Where is this place we're going to?
D A
Does anybody know we're out here on the waves?
D A
And are any of our signals coming through?
E A
D A
We're going 'round in circles
D A
We have no single point of view
D A
And like the clouds that turn to every passing wind
D A
We turn to any signal that comes through
E A
[Verse 3]
D A
At the edge of the sea were the signs of the dove
D A
But the wrong way out and the wrong way up
D A
We pushed the empty frame of reason out the cabin door
D A
No, we won't be needing reasons anymore
E D
