     F
On a bench, on the beach
       D#                A# 
Just before the sun had gone
            F
I tried to reach you
Cm               D
Plain faced and falling fast
Gm			     A#
You looked so vacant like an empty shell
 G    F/C		       C
Whose life had passed upon the ocean
 A#   F   F      A#   F
Be- fore light shook the sky
     D#          D#  A# 
Down by the docks I saw
	     F
The masts unfolding
Cm	     D		      Gm
Don't turn away, please understand
		  A#
It's a life and a living
 G    F/C	
And a way to keep the wolves away
      C			
From hungry hands, from hungry hands

Chorus:
      Dm
Crazy water
F			  F   F   A#     D#   A#
Takes my fishing boat on Mon-day morning
	     F 
Dangerous dreaming
      F				       F     F       A#
If we all believe in the things you believe you're seeing
          F  		A# 		  Gm7	  Gm7   A#
Oh we'd never drop our nets in the crazy water, crazy  water

Tangled lives, lonely wives
Shoreline widows pray for the souls of missing whalers
Endless nights on an endless sea where nothing lives between us
Just the breakers on the ocean
Separating you and me, ooh, separating you and me

Chorus - x2

Crazy water - x8

In the crazy, crazy water
In the crazy, crazy, crazy water
Crazy, crazy, crazy water - x2
