Bb C Dm

I saw you yesterday

your eyes were the color

of some kind of grey.

I hear what you're saying

Please, don't let me go

Bb C Dm

I've got all the people down below.

they rush to talk;

they rush to say

Bb C Dm

man overboard...

Bb C Dm

may day...may day... may day...

F C

troubles are brought back by you

funny how we, we go down

we go anywhere, but to the ground

Bb C Dm

so I hear that you're doing fine

Bb C

you've flown all those planes

that have been on your mind.

Bb C

I can't understand

I don't need to know

Bb C Dm

I'll speek to you through this radio.

Bb C Dm

they rush to talk;

Bb C Dm

they rush to say

Bb C Dm

man overboard...

Bb C Dm

may day...may day... may day...

F C

troubles are brought back by you

funny how we, we go down

we go anywhere, but to the ground
