[Em7]I viewed in my presence
[A]My hand on my forehead
[Em7]And sighting the liners
[Bm]Of mad merchant seamen[Am]
[Em7]In search of the living
[D]Or the spices of Chi[Am7]na
Lucy walked gently
Between the damp barrels
And shut out my eyes
With the width of her fingers
Said she'd guessed the number
Of bales in the back room
[Em7]While the seagulls were screaming
[A/C#]Lucy was e[Bm]ati[C]ng
[Em7]Then we hauled up our colours
[A/C#]The way the mother had to[Bm]ld [C]us
[Am]And together we ju[Bm]st watched the sa[Em]ils
Lucy I said
In a passage of cotton kegs
Can we hold hands
I'm sure that it's warmer
Then the gulls ate the crumbs
Of Lucy's sandwich
