tune Transposed: semitones

[C/F]See that gull on [Am7]the old sea wall
[Gadd13]Some birds fly [D/F#]and others fall asleep
[Em7]To the beating [Cadd9]of their wings
[Dsus2]As wind sings, [C/F]the wind sings
[C/F]See that babe [Am7]at her mother's breast
[Gadd13]If I could [D/F#]I'd take my rest
[Em7]Back in the belly [Cadd9]from where I came
[Dsus2]Nobody knows my [C/F]name, knows my name
[C/F]Half asleep in [Am7]a bowl of gruel
[Gadd13]No one told [D/F#]me life was cruel
[Em7]My home is [Cadd9]in this valley now
[Dsus2]And it's burning [C/F]down, it's burning down
[C/F]If I find [Am7]the fire escape
[Gadd13]I'll break the glass [D/F#]and put on my cape
[Em7]I'll pretend [Cadd9]I'm Superman
[Dsus2]Where are my friends? [C/F]Where are my friends?
[C/F]I'm a [Am7]poor wayfarer and
[Gadd13]I got no one [D/F#]to dry my eyes
[Em7]Time to lay [Cadd9]this body down
[Dsus2]In the frozen [C/F]ground, the frozen ground
[C/F]When I die [Am7]Lord bring me back
[Gadd13]As a snow white [D/F#]gull I'll make my tracks
[Em7]On the sandy beach [Cadd9]of the English bay
[Dsus2]Then I'll fly [C/F]away, I'll fly away
