One, two, three ... Intro. (Electric Guitars and Organ) Nash: If you smile at me I will understand 'cause that is something Everybody everywhere does in the same way. Crosby: I can see by your coat, my friend you're from the other side There's just one thing I would like to know Can you tell me please who won the war? Nash: Say can I have some of your purple berries? Crosby: Yes, I've been eating them For six or seven weeks now I haven't got sick once Crosby & Nash: Probably keep us both alive. Wooden ships on the water very free and easy Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be Silver people on the shoreline let us be Talkin' about very free and easy. Instrumental (Organ) Horror grips us as we watch you die All we can do is echo your anguished cries Stare as all human feelings die We are leaving, you don't need us. Instrumental (Organ + Electric Guitar) Go take a sister then by the hand Lead her out of this foreign land Far away where we might laugh again We are leaving, you don't need us. Instrumental (Electric Guitar) And it's a fair wind Blowin' warm out of the south o'er my shoulder. Guess I'll set a course and go.
