            E                 G#m        A
You're the Queen of the slipstream with eyes
that shine
E                      G#m          A
You have crossed many waters to be here
E                      G#m           A
You have drank of the fountain of innocence
E                    G#m              A
And experienced the long cold wintry years.

There's a dream where the contents are visible
Where the poetic champions compose
Will you breathe not a word of this secrecy?
Will you still be my special rose?

Chorus:
F#m       C#m
Goin' away   far across the sea
F#m                   E
But I'll be back for you
F#m                           C#m
I will tell you everything I know
F#m                 C#m
Baby everything is true

Will the blush still remain on your cheeks, my love
In the light, in the light always seen in your head?
Gold and sliver they placed at your feet my dear
But I know you chose me instead (Alright)

Chorus:
Well, I'm goin' away far across the sea
But I'll be back for you
Tell you everything I know
Baby, everything is true

You're the queen of the slipstream, I love you so
You have crossed many waters to be here
And you drink, and you drink at the fountains of
innocence
An experience you know very well

You're the queen
Queen of the slipstream (You're the queen)
You're the queen of the slipstream alright
(You're the queen)
I see you slippin' and slidin' in the snow
(You're the queen)
Oh, queen of the slipstream (You're the queen)
You come runnin' to me, you come runnin' to me,
darling (You're the queen)
Queen of the slipstream (You're the queen)
(You're the queen)
(You're the queen)
(You're the queen)
(You're the queen)
(You're the queen)
