Calypso Acordes

Calypso
Words and Music by John Denver, 1975
 
[Verse 1]
A                         A6
To sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean
    Amaj7                  A           Bm/A
To ride on the crest of a wild raging storm
    A                      A6
To work in the service of life and living
     Amaj7         A                        Bm/A
In search of the answers to the questions unknown
       A                        A6
To be part of the movement and part of the growing
Amaj7      A              Em7/A (open for two bars)
Part of beginning to understand
 
[Chorus]
D                A
Aye Calypso the places you've been to
       D                   A
The things that you've shown us
     E           A
The stories you tell
D                A
Aye Calypso, I sing to your spirit
     D             A            E7          A
The men who have served you so long and so well
 
[Post-Chorus]
             E               D     A
Hi - dee  - ay  -- ee  -   ooo------
 
            E            D        A
do  - dle - oh   ---  do do do do do
 
              E          D      A
do - dle  -  ay  -  ee  ----------
 
           E             Dsus4  D   A    D/A   A   D/A
do-dle  - ay    -  ee.
 
[Verse 2]
          A                          A6
Like the dolphin who guides you, you bring us beside you
    Amaj7                     A           Bm/A
To light up the darkness and show us the way
     A                          A6
For though we are strangers in your silent world
   Amaj7         A                        Bm/A
To live on the land we must learn from the sea
       A                    A6
To be true as the tide and free as a wind swell
Amaj7       A                  Em7/A (open for two bars)
Joyful and loving in letting it be
 
[Chorus]
D                A

       D                   A
The things that you've shown us
     E           A
The stories you tell
D                A
Aye Calypso, I sing to your spirit
     D             A            E7          A
The men who have served you so long and so well
 
[Post-Chorus]

The men who have served you so long and so well
