A       D       F#m (2x)
A       D 
A       D       F#m 

        A                
Climb out 
                        D 
Out to where you see 
F#m                     A 
The curl of the world 
A       D        
A 
We're alone 
                D 
Just like you said 
                        A                                                
It's a cold, cold world 

A       D       A 

Life lasts 
                                D       F#m 
Only one thing left, the road 
                A               D 
And last year to learn 

D       A       (silent) 
                E 
You were the boat that breached  
                        D 
In the tale of Conrad 
                E 
We will never be the change 

To the weather and the sea 
                D 
And you knew that 

        E 
You were the boat that breached 
                        D 
In the tale of Conrad 
                E 
Oh I loved you with the good 

And the careless of me 
D                       E       D       E       D       E       D       E       D (silent) 
But it all goes back 

A 
Climb out 

                        D 
Out to where you see 
                        A       D 
The curl of the world 

        A 
We're alone 
                D       F#m 
Just like you said 
                        A       D       F#m 
And last year to learn 


                E 
You were the boat that breached 
                D 
In the tale of Conrad 
                E 
We will never be the change 

To the weather and the sea 
        D 
And you knew that 

                E 
You were the boat that breached 
                        D 
In the tale of Conrad

Oh I loved you with the good 

And the careless of me 
D                       E       D       E       D       E 
But it all goes back
