Orinoco Flow

Music Enya / Lyrics Roma Ryan


G F C
Let me sail, let me sail, let the Orinoco flow,

G F C
Let me reach, let me beach on the shores of Tripoli,

G F C
Let me sail, let me sail, let me crash upon your shore,

G F C
Let me reach, let me beach far beyond the Yellow Sea.

Cm Bb F
De de de, de de, (repeat 4x)

G
De de de, de de.

F C G
Sail away, sail away, sail away. (repeat 4x)

G F C
From Bissau to Palau - in the shade of Avalon,

G F C
From Fiji to Tiree and the Isles of Ebony,

G F C
From Peru to Cebu hear the power of Babylon,

G F C
From Bali to Cali - far beneath the Coral Sea.

C G Am Fmaj9 G
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, up, Adieu. (repeat 2x)

C G F D
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, up, Adieu.

G F C
From the North to the South, Ebudae into Khartoum,

G F C
From the deep Sea of Clouds to the Island of the Moon,

G F C
Carry me on the waves to the lands I've never been,

G F C
Carry me on the waves to the lands I've never seen.

G F C
We can sail, we can sail, with the Orinoco flow,

G F C
We can sail, we can sail, sail away, sail away, sail...

G F C
We can steer, we can near with Rob Dickins at the wheel,

G F C
We can sigh, say goodbye Ross and his dependencies.

G F C
We can sail, we can sail, sail away, sail away, sail...(etc.)

It's about escaping, and letting yourself be...to me, anyway..

This song is great. I think it's about sailing yet it has a very new age sound to it. I think the meaning has something to do with mood and new age stuff. Otherwise, this is a great song to mellow out to.

I love this song, it's so.. floaty and beautiful. I can remember her performing it on TOTP I think it was when I was about 4 or 5, with the piano and the falling rose petals. It's stuck in my head ever since.

the first time I heard this (and was, like, 7) I thought it was "save a whale, save a whale, save a whale..."

this song reminds me of traveling. And when I'm in my car, I get all sorts of wanderlust, that i want to get out of the country and away from my daily obligations, you know just get a vacation! i don't know what i'd do if I didn't have Enya's CDs to listen to in my car :) 1

My mum used to listen to Enya when I was really small, like 3 and 4 years old! So I've always liked Enya, it reminds me of being really happy as a small girl. This was my favourite song and I used to dance round my living room to it! But now I'm older and I've begun to fully appreciate the beauty of Enya's music, its amazing! I think part of the beauty of her music is that the songs dont have a specific meaning, they all mean different things to different people. But, no matter what the songs mean, the music is serene, peaceful and always makes me happy!

This was my first favorite song ever. I remember being VERY young and my dad playing this song during dinner on a cassette. Although I personally think new age is a silly genre, Enya is totally underrated.
