G         Em        C
Under the dog star sail
G        Em         C
Over the reefs of moonshine
G         Em        C
Under the skies of fall
Bm            C                   D
North, north west, the stones of Faroe


Under the Arctic fire
Over the seas of silence
Hauling on frozen ropes
For all my days remaining


Em      C              D
   But would north be true?


{ Chorus : "ehhhh..." }
All colours bleed to red
Asleep on the ocean's bed
Drifting in empty seas
For all my days remaining


Em      C              D
   But would north be true?
Em                C
   Why should I?
                 D
   Why should I cry for you?


G            Em7    C
Dark angels follow me
G       Em7     C
Over a godless sea
G             Em      C
Mountains of endless falling,
Bm   C             D
For all my days remaining,


Em  C             D
   What would be true?


Em           C             D
Sometimes I see your face,
Em                 C               D
The stars seem to lose their place
Em          C            D
Why must I think of you?
Em           C
Why must I?
           G
Why should I?
             Em       C
Why should I cry for you?
G             Em       C
Why would you want me to?
G                 Em       C
And what would it mean to say,
Bm        C               D
That, "I loved you in my fashion"?


G              D
What would be true?
Em            C
Why should I?
              D              G
Why should I cry for you?
