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