Em Here in the dawn As I walk through this dream As I have done since ages now gone Am Shall I read you the letter Em They sent postmarked from somewhere out here Am It's in Latin, I think, I don't know Em Can you help me, my dear C D Em Please, can you help me, my dear Near to their bed (they never sleep) They sit sipping their tea, watch the sea Move the sand through their heads (sit in their chairs by the bay) Am Did I show you the marks on the wall Em Left by captains now dead (house out on the cove) Am They fell fighting for peace in their lives Em Or so it is said (still nobody seems to be here) C D Em Please, can you help me, my dear C D Em Please, can you help me, my dear Bm You can't miss it Em A blue forest on a green sky Bm You must risk it Am Don't ignore us if you want us to Bm Em If we want us to survive Em Where will I be (can't you help me to find my way) After watching them walking the pier At the mouth of the sea (I've been lost for so long) Am They're in love with the news Em And don't show if they're living in fear (still nobody seems to be here) Am They eat ice cream alone Em Watch the waves at the end of the pier (ah, nobody seems to hear) C D Em Please, can you help me, my dear C D Em Please, can you help me, my dear You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  Bm  C  D  Em  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
