Akkoorden in dit liedje

G   C  (X 2)

G
We sailed away on a winter's day
      C
With fate as malleable as clay
      G
But ships are fallible I say
      C
And the nautical like all things fades

    G
And I do recall our caravel
   C
A little wicker beetle shell
      G
With four fine masts and lateen sails
     C
Its bearings on Cair Paravel

Am     C
Oh my love
             G
Oh it was a funny little thing
   Am     C             G   C   G   C
To be the ones to have seen

G
The sight of bridges and balloons
       C 
Makes calm canaries irritable
G
And they caw and claw all afternoon
C
Catenaries and dirigibles
G
Brace and buoy the living room
   C
A loom of metals, warp, woof, wimble
      G
And a thimble's worth of milky moon
    C
Can be hearts larger than a thimble

Am     C
Oh my love
             G
Oh it was a funny little thing
   Am     C             G   
To be the ones to have seen

Am     C
Oh my love
             G
Oh it was a funny little thing
                              Am   C   G   C   G   C   G   C   G \
It was a funny, funny little thing
