Blue Sky - Hear Me Calling

G Em G Em
it’s after midnight , i lie in my bed
G Em D
thoughts are running through my head
C Em C D
it’s running empty and i’m going insane
G C Em Em/F# G
there is a picture burned in my brain
skippers were leaning at the ships – rail
we stood there shivering on the quai
when they reached the sea , they hoisted the sails
then they were never seen again
refrain
C G C G
hear me calling , in the night
C G D D
hear me calling , nothing’s allright
C G C G
hear me calling , the whole night through
C G C G C G
hear me calling , i miss you , my son , i miss you
seven days later they got into a storm
their ship sprung a leak , the sails were torn
the operator sent a last sos
before the sea took them to their final rest
refrain
now i pass the nights waking and talking with you
i can hear your voice , yeah , it’s true
in starry nights i see you above
and from far i can hear you laugh
refrain
