Ripples (ver. 2)

Emaj7/9                   Bmaj7 
Bluegirls come in every size  
B7/4              E 
Some are wise and some otherwise,  
         G#m7  
They got pretty blue eyes.  
Dm6                   E/D 
For an hour a man may change  
Dm6                         C 
For an hour her face looks strange -  
       D              G 
Looks strange, looks strange.  
 
Emaj7/9                    Bmaj7 
Marching to the promised land  
          B7/4            E            A/E E 
Where the honey flows and takes you by the hand,  
          G#m7  
Pulls you down on your knees,  
Dm6                       E/D  
While you're down a pool appears.  
    D#°                     Em 
The face in the water looks up,  
        F#°                      C/G  
And she shakes her head as if to say  
              D/C                          B7/4  B7  
That it's the last time you'll look like today.  
 
Amaj7         B/A  
Sail away, away  
Emaj7                E7  
Ripples never come back.  
F#m7              F#7/4  F#7 
Gone to the other side.  
Amaj7         B/A 
Sail away, away.  
 
    Emaj7/9                               Bmaj7 
The face that launched a thousand ships  
   B7/4               E 
Is sinking fast, that happens you know,  
    G#m7  
The water gets below.  
Dm6                  E/D  
Seems not very long ago  
Dm6                        C   D      G 
when lovelier she was than any that I know.  
 
Emaj7/9                  Bmaj7 
Angels never know it's time  
   B7/4               E             A/E  E 
To close the book and gracefully decline,  
    G#m7  
The song has found a tale.  
Dm6                        E/D  
My, what a jealous pool is she.  
    D#°                     Em 
The face in the water looks up  
    F#°                      C/G  
She shakes her head as if to say  
         D/C                      B7/4  B7  
That the bluegirls have all gone away.  
 
Amaj7         B/A  
Sail away, away  
Emaj7                E7  
Ripples never come back.  
        F#m7              F#7/4  F#7 
They've gone to the other side.  
Amaj7         B/A  
Look into the pool,  
Emaj7                E7  
Ripples never come back,  
F#m7  
Dive to the bottom and go to the top  
   F#7/4               F#7 
To see where they have gone  
            Amaj7               B/A  
Oh, they've gone to the other side... 
 
Amaj7         B/A  
Sail away, away  
Emaj7                E7  
Ripples never come back.  
F#m7              F#7/4  F#7 
Gone to the other side.  
Amaj7           B/A  
Look into the pool,  
    Emaj7                E7  
The ripples never come back, come back,  
F#m7  
Dive to the bottom and go to the top  
   F#7/4               F#7 
To see where they have gone  
        Amaj7               B/A  
They've gone to the other side  
Emaj7                E7  
Ripples never come back  
F#m7        F#7/4  F#7 
Sail away, away...
