[Verse 1]

       D       A7             D
They bought a round for the sailor
           G        A7
and they heard his tale
      Dsus D Dsus2 Dsus D   G
of a world that was so far away
       A7              D     G
and a song that we'd never heard
   A7         D     G
a song of a little bird
              A7          D
that fell in love with a whale


[Verse 2]

                      A7          D
He said, 'You cannot live in the ocean
         G       A7
and she said to him
    Dsus D Dsus2 Dsus D   G
you never can live in the sky
         A7        D          G
but the ocean is filled with tears
         A7        D      G
and the sea turns into a mirror
           A7           D              G
there's a whale in the moon when it's clear
       A7          D
and a bird on the tide


[Chorus]

  D     D7    G
Please don't cry
       E7   G    A7
let me dry your eyes


[Verse 3]

    D       A7            D
so tell me that you will wait for me
        G        A7
hold me in your arms
   Dsus D Dsus2 Dsus D   G
I promise we never will part
      A7         D           G
I'll never sail back to the time
           A7     D             G
but I'll always pretend you're mine
          A7           D         G
though I know that we both must part
         A7         D
you can live in my heart


[Chorus]

  D     D7    G
Please don't cry
       E7   G    A7
let me dry your eyes


[Verse 4]

     D       A7            D
and tell me that you will wait for me
        G        A7
hold me in your arms
   Dsus D Dsus2 Dsus D   G
I promise we never will part
      A7         D           G
I'll never sail back to the time
          A7       D                 G
but I'll always pretend that you're mine
   A7           D         G
I know that we both must part
         A7         D
you can live in my heart
