Calypso (midi)

A

1. To sail on a dream, on a crystal clear ocean,

E

to ride on the crest of the wild raging storm.

A

To work in the service of life and the living,

D

in search of the answers to questions unknown.

A

To be part of the movement and part of the growing,

A7

part of beginning to understand.

D A

Aye, Calypso, the places you´ve been to,

D A E A

the things you´ve shown us, the stories you tell !

D A

Aye, Calypso, I sing to your spirit,

D A E A

the men who have served so long and so well.

E D A E D A

Dodle - ayee ohooo. Dodle - ayee didididi.

E D A E D - A

Dodle - ayee didididi. Dodle - ayee di.

A

2. Like the dolphins who guides you, you bring us beside you,

E

to light up the darkness and show us the way.

A

For though we are strangers in your silent world.

D

to live on the land we must learn from the sea.

A

To be true as the tide and free as a windswell,

A7

joyful and loving in letting it be.

D A

Aye, Calypso, the places you´ve been to,

D A E A

the things you´ve shown us, the stories you tell !

D A

Aye, Calypso, I sing to your spirit,

D A E A

the men who have served so long and so well. (2x)

E D A E D A

Dodle - ayee ohooo. Dodle - ayee didididi.

E D A E D - A

Dodle - ayee didididi. Dodle - ayee di.

E D A E D A

Dodle - ayee ohooo. Dodle - ayee didididi.

E D A E D A

Dodle - ayee didididi. Dodle - ayee di, di, di.
