View chords used in this chart
Intro: D-C-G
D C G
Seagull you fly into the horizon
D C G
Into the misty morning sun
D C G
Nobody knows where you are going
D C G
Nobody knows where you are from
There is a man and he's asking a question
Is this really the end of the world
Seagull you must have known for a long time
The shape of things to come
(repeat first stanza)
the ending leaves lots of room for lyrical improv, but basically, its
something like this:
D C G
Seagull fly away today
Fly away, fly away
Fly to your tomorrow
Leave me with my sorrow
The ending guitar solo is nothing more than a D chord played at the
open position, then sliding it up to 5th, 7th, 9th, and 12th fret.
