[Verse 1]
---------------------
D               A          G                    D
 Got out of town on a boat, going to Southern islands
          A       G                D  A
Sailing a reach before a following sea
                             G       D
She was making for the trades on the outside
        A           G        D A
And the downhill run to Papeete
                     G                  D
Off the wind on this heading lie the Marquesas
       A                  G          D             A
We got eighty feet of the waterline, nicely making way
                  G                  D
In a noisy bar in Avalon, I tried to call you
         A                G            D         Bm      A
But on a midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away

[Pre-Chorus]
---------------------
G                D          G         A
 Think about how many times I have fallen
G            D         G             A
 Spirits are using me, larger voices calling
G                    D          G               A
 What heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten
             D    G    A
I have been around the world

[Chorus]
---------------------
D                G    A
Looking for that womangirl
    D          G     A
Who knows love can endure
                    A G
And you know it will

[Verse 2]
---------------------
D A G D            A             G             D
       When you see the Southern Cross for the first time
    A              G                 D  A
You understand now why you came this way
                             G               D
Cause the truth you might be running from is so small
            A          G            D            Bm     A
But it's as big as the promise, the promise of a coming day
       A             G                       D
So I'm sailing for tomorrow, my dreams are a dying
       A            G                 D                       A
And my love is an anchor tied to you, tied with a silver chain
                   G                   D
I have my ship and all her flags are a flying
       A               G        D     Bm     A
She is all that I have left and music is her name

[Verse 3]
---------------------
D A      A                  G       D
   So we cheated and we lied and we tested
       A               G                D                  A
And we never failed to fail, it was the easiest thing to do
                G      D
You will survive being bested
             A     G                      D         Bm     A
Somebody fine will come along, make me forget about loving you
                A    G
In the Southern Cross
