Jon English - Wine dark sea

I have ^Dcrushed the cup of ^Ayouth like a ^Bmrose between my ^Gfingers but it's ^Dnectar never ^Bmwarmed my weary ^Gheart ^A I have ^Bmwatched life dis^Fmappear like the ^Gcreepin' mists of ^Gmmornin' for these ^Dropes that tie me ^Adown will never ^Cpart ^G

For I have ^Dnever known a ^Afeelin' such as ^Bmthis wash over ^Gme I would ^Dclimb the purple ^Amountains I would ^Eswim the wine dark ^Bmsea

Oh my ^Dback is weak and my ^Abrain is dull from the ^Bmtoil of many ^Gyears ^Dworkin' just to ^Bmjustify my ^Emfear ^A but all my ^Bmfeelin's come and ^Fmgo while ^Ginside somethin' ^Gmgrows got to ^Dmake it, try to ^Afake it through my ^Clonely, lonely ^Gyears

Until I've ^Donce again this f^Aeelin' that ^Bmjust washed over ^Gme I would ^Dclimb the purple ^Amountains I would ^Eswim the wine dark ^Bmsea

^GOh ^Aoh I had it right ^Bmthere,in my hand how to ^Gget you to change, your ^Alonely waste to a ^Bmgreener land but I got the ^Gtypical, am^Abivalence of ^Bmblissful mankind I let it ^Ggo just didn't ^Cknow

And ^Dnow my story's ^Adone do not ^Bmfeel sympha^Gthy there is ^Dlittle of my^Bm body left to^G save ^A keep on ^Bmsearchin' till you ^Fmfind that which ^Gprays upon your ^Gmmind or you'll ^Dfind cold ^Acomfort in your ^Cgrave ^G

'til I've ^Donce again this ^Afeelin' that ^Bmjust washed over ^Gme I would ^Dclimb the purple ^Amountains I would ^Eswim the wine dark ^Bmsea Oh I have ^Dnever known a ^Afeelin' such as ^Bmthis wash over ^Gme I would ^Dclimb the purple ^Amountains I would ^Eswim the wine dark ^Bmsea
