  			(verse 1) 
    A 
To sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean, 
                                       D6 
to ride on the crest of a wild raging storm 
    A 
To work in the service of life and living, 
                                       D6 
In search of the answers of questions unknown 
       A 
To be part of the movement and part of the growing, 
                       A7 
Part of beginning to understand, 
 
 
(chorus) 
                  A 
Aye Calypso the places you've been to, 
     D 
The things that you've shown us, 
                 A 
The stories you tell, 
D               A 
Aye Calypso, I sing to your spirit, 
     D             A             E 
Yhe men who have served you so long and so well 
             D    A       E 
Hi dee ay-ee ooo doo-dle oh 
D                  A          E 
oo do do do do do doo-dle ay yee 
A       E   Dsus - D - A

(verse 2) 
A 
Like the dolphin who guides you, you bring us beside you, 
                                         D6 
To light up the darkness and show us the way, 
    A 
For though we are strangers in your silent world, 
                                           D6 
To live on the land we must learn from the sea, 
   A  
To be true as the tide and free as a wind swell, 
                               A7 
Joyful and loving in letting it be 
 
 
(chorus) 
                  A 
Aye Calypso the places you've been to, 
     D 
The things that you've shown us, 
                 A 
The stories you tell, 
D               A 
Aye Calypso, I sing to your spirit, 
     D             A             E 
Yhe men who have served you so long and so well 
             D    A       E 
Hi dee ay-ee ooo doo-dle oh 
D                  A          E 
oo do do do do do doo-dle ay yee 
A       E   Dsus - D - A 
doo-dle ay ee
