Alex's Farewell to Dana
Words by George Trosper
TTTO Four Strong Winds by Ian Tyson

Chorus: G Am Solar wind that blows steady D7 G Distant stars that glint bright G Am D D7 On my sailship with her single narrow berth. G Am We have had our days of roses D7 G D And our nights of song and wine G Am C D G D And I'll try to call when next I swing by Earth. G Am Guess I'll tack out to Callisto D7 G Close approach was just last week G Am D D7 They can always use someone to shepherd ice. G Am You could join me at the base there-- D7 G D I could bind myself to earth-- G Am C D G D But love won't ask the other pay that price. G Am Solar wind that blows steady D7 G Distant stars that glint bright G Am D D7 On my sailship with her single narrow berth. G Am We have had our days of roses D7 G D And our nights of song and wine G Am C D G D And I'll try to call when next I swing by Earth. We have shared each other's bodies We have walked each other's dreams But still it's not enough to tip the scale. You won't leave your seabed seedlings And I won't give up space For I can't bear just seven seas to sail. G Am Solar wind that blows steady D7 G Distant stars that glint bright G Am D D7 On my sailship with her single narrow berth. G Am We have had our days of roses D7 G D And our nights of song and wine G Am C D G D And I'll try to call when next I swing by Earth.
