Lyrics Lost Sailor - Grateful Dead

Lost Sailor

Compass card is spinning
Your elm is swingin' to and fro
Ooh, where’s the dog star?
Ooh, where’s the moon?
You’re a lost sailor
You’ve been too long at sea
Some days the gales are howling
Some days the sea is still as glass
Ooh, reef the main sail
Ooh, lash the mast
You’re a lost sailor
You’ve been way too long at sea
Now the shore lights beckon
Yeah, there’s a price for being free
Hear the sea birds cry
There’s a ghost wind blowin'
It’s calling you, to that misty swirling sea
'Til the chains of your dreams are broken
No place in this world you can be
