One, two (Yeah) ... One, two, three ... [Intro. (Electric Guitars and Organ)] Nash: If you smile at me I will understand 'cause that is something Everybody everywhere does in the same language, yeah [Crosby:] I can see by your coat, my friend you're from the other side There's just one thing I would like to know Can you tell me please who won the war? [Nash:] Say can I have some of your purple berries? [Crosby:] Yes, I've been eating them For six or seven weeks now I haven't got sick once [Crosby & Nash:] Probably keep us all alive here we go Wooden ships on the water very free and easy Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be Silver people on the shoreline let us be Talkin' very free and easy [Instrumental (Organ)] Horror grips us as we watch you die All we can do is echo your anguished cries Stare as all your human feelings die We are leaving, you don't ... [Instrumental (Organ + Electric Guitar)] Go take your sister then by the hand (Lead her) Lead her out of this foreign land Far away where we might laugh again We are leaving, you don't need us You don't, you don't ... [Instrumental (Electric Guitar)] And it's a fair wind Blowin' warm out of the south o'er my shoulder I guess I am going to set a course And you know we will surely, surely go [Ending (Electric Guitars and Organ)]
