Composição de (Joni Mitchell)
F#               F#4 
There's a man who's been out sailing 
      F#                F#4 
In a decade full of dreams 
        F#                F#4 
And he takes her to a schooner 
         F#               C#9 
And he treats her like a queen 
         G#m 
Bearing beads from California 
           E                 F# 
With their amber stones and green 
        B                   F# 
He has called her from the harbor 
        B                     F# 
He has kissed her with his freedom 
        B                 F# 
He has heard her off to starboard 
         B                 C#9 
In the breaking and the breathing 
       G#m       E 
Of the water weeds 
       B       E           F# F#4 F# F#4 
While she was busy being free 
          F#                    F#4 
There's a man who's climbed a mountain 
          F#              F#4 
And he's calling out her name 
        F#                 F#4 
And he hopes her heart can hear 
                F# 
Three thousand miles 
           C#9 
He calls again 
        G#m 
He can think her there beside him 
        E                F# 
He can miss her just the same 
        B                 F# 
He has missed her in the forest 
          B                 F# 
While he showed her all the flowers 
        B                 F# 
And the branches sang the Chorus 
       B                  C#9 
As he climbed the scaley towers 
      G#m       E 
Of a forest tree 
       B           E          F# F#4 F# F#4 
While she was somewhere being free 
          F#               F#4 
There's a man who's sent a letter 
          F#            F#4 
And he's waiting for reply 
       F#                 F#4 
He has asked her of her travels 
          F#                C#9 
Since the day they said goodbye 
           G#m 
He writes "Wish you were beside me 
        E             F# 
We can make it if we try" 

        B              F# 
He has seen her at the office 
         B              F# 
With her name on all his papers 
             B             F# 
Through the sharing of the profits 
         B                 C#9 
He will find it hard to shake her 
       G#m     E 
From his memory 
     B        E         F# F#4 F# F#4 
And she's so busy being free 
         F#            F#4 
There's a lady in the city 
         F#                  F#4 
And she thinks she loves them all 
        F#                     F#4 
There's the one who's thinking of her 
           F#                  C#9 
There's the one who sometimes calls 
           G#m 
There's the one who writes her letters 
          E               F# 
With his facts and figures scrawl 
       B                   F# 
She has brought them to her senses 
         B                  F# 
They have laughed inside her laughter 
         B              F# 
Now she rallies her defenses 
         B                  C#9 
For she fears that one will ask her 
     G#m    E 
For eternity 
     B        E          F# F#4 F# F#4 
And she's so busy being free 
          F#                 F#4 
There's a man who sends her medals 
        F#              F#4 
He is bleeding from the war 
          F#             F#4 
There's a jouster and a jester 
      F#              C#9 
And a man who owns a store 
          G#m 
There's a drummer and a dreamer 
          E              F# 
And you know there may be more 
          B                 F# 
She will love them when she sees them 
           B               F# 
They will lose her if they follow 
         B               F# 
And she only means to please them 
         B                 C#9 
And her heart is full and hollow 
        G#m      E 
Like a cactus tree 
       B        E          F# 
While she's so busy being free
