CAPO: 2nd fret (Sounds in the key of C#m)
Chord names and fret positions are relative to the capo:
Bm7 = x24235 D = xx0232 A/D = xx0220 Bsus2 = x24422
Em7 = 022030 D6 = xx0202 Dmaj7 = xx0222 A4 = x02230
A = x02220 Aadd4 = x00220 Em = 022000 A7sus4 = x02030
Gsus2 = 3x0233 Em7/G = 320030 Asus2 = x02200
(The Em7/G shape I use is technically a G6.
Some of the other chords are a guitar interpretation, and give
a flavour of what I hear Kate playing on piano, and are not
intended to be an exact keyboard chord transcription.)

******************
In the album sleeve pages the line is spelt
'...Every gull, a seeking craft...'
It could be this is a deliberate pun on 'Sea King' helicopters,
a mis-transcription, or referring generally to any rescue craft.
Either way it is sung the same. I went with the helicopter name
as a more likely scenario to me, within the context of the song.
