Southern Cross
Crosby Stills Nash
Intro A Gmaj7 D A D A
A G D
Got outta` town on a boat going to southern islands
A G D A
Sailin` reach before a a following sea
G D
She was makin` for the trades on the outside
A G D A
And the downhill run to Papeete Bay
G D
Off this wind on this headin` lie the Marquesas
A G D Bm A
We got eighty feet of the waterline nicely makin` way
G D
In a noisy bar in Avalon I tried to call you
A G D Bm A
But on the midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away

A G
Somebody fine will come along
D Bm A
Make me forget about lovin` you
A G6 D A G D
