F Am G



Verse:
F       Am
Black flies on the windowsill

That we are

That we are

               F
That we are to know
        Am
Winter stole summerʼs thrill
                     F
And the riverʼs cracked and cold

F       Am
See the sky is no manʼs land
        F
A darkened plume to stay
        Am
Hope here needs a humble hand
        F
Not a fox found in your place

Chorus:
Am      G       F
And no man is an island, oh this I know
        Am
But canʼt you see, oh?
        G       F
Maybe you were the ocean, when I was just a stone

Verse:
F       Am
Black flies on the windowsill

That we are

That we are
                     F
That we are to hold
        Am
Comfort came against my will
        F
And every story must grow old

        Am
Still Iʼll be a traveller
        F
A gypsyʼs reins to face
        Am
But the road is wearier
        F
With that fool found in your place

Chorus:
Am      G       F
And no man is an island, oh this I know
        Am
But canʼt you see, oh?
        G       F
Maybe you were the ocean, when I was just a stone

F
So here we are...

Am F Am F Am F

Outro:
Am      G
And I donʼt wanna beg your pardon
        F
And I donʼt wanna ask you why

But if I was to go my own way

Would I have to pass you by?
