CAPO 1 ( whatever fits your voice best! )

[Verse 1]

                              Am
Black flies on the windowsill

That we are

That we are
                        F
That we are to know
                                    Am
Winter stole summer's thrill
                         F
And the river's cracked and cold

                        Am
See the sky is no man's 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
No man is an island, this i know

But can't you see?
Am                              G                                  F
Maybe you were the ocean when i was just a stone

[Verse 2]

                             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 I'll be a traveller
                 F
A gypsy's reins to face
                       Am
But the road is wearier
                     F
With that fool found in your place

[Chorus]

Am                G                       F
No man is an island, this i know

But can't you see?
Am                              G                                  F
Maybe you were the ocean when i was just a stone

So here we are
