Em D*
Say hello to the sea
Cmaj7+11 Em

Under the skies of azure
And I met him yesterday
Under my old umbrella
And I met him yesterday
Under the skies of azure
Chorus:
Cmaj7 D Em Em
And turquoise was the colour of his eyes
Cmaj7 D Em Em
And bitter wine the colour of mine

Held my empty fingers
He was tall, gracefully
He filled my curled hot body
And I met him yesterday
Under the skies of azure
And I met him yesterday
Under my old umbrella
