Barges

A                            D                     E

Out of my window looking in the night

         A         D        A        E   A

I can see the barges flickering light

A                    D                       E

Silently flows the water to the sea

             A         D             A  E  A

And the barges too, flow silently.

A                       D                       E

Barges, I would like to sail with you

             A          D        A E    A

I would like to sail the ocean blue.

A                       D                       E

Barges, Is there treasure in your hold,

            A              D         A       E     A

Do you fight with pirates brave and bold

Out of my window looking in the night

I can see those barges flickering light

Starboard shines green and port is shining red

I can see those barges far ahead.

How my heart yearns to sail away with you

How I long to sail the ocean blue.

But I must stay beside my window drear

As I watch you sail away from here.
