Song To The Siren Tabulatur von Rose Betts (für Baryton)

C           G
Long afloat on shipless oceans
F            Am
I did all my best to smile
C                       G
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
F                     Am
Drew me loving to your isle
 
 
C            Gm            F                   C
And you sang, Sail to me, Sail to me, Let me unfold you
C         Gm          F           G      C   
Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you
 
 
C            G
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
F                  Am
Were you here when i was full sail
C                    G
Now my foolish boat is leaning 
F                 Am
Broken lovelorn on your rocks,
 
 
C            Gm             F                         C
For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow
C          Gm         F                  C 
O my heart, O my heart shies from the sorrow" 
 
 
C            G                 F
I am puzzled as the newborn child
F                Am
I am troubled at the tide
C              G
Should I stand amid the breakers?
F                Am
Should I lie with Death my bride?
 
 
C            Gm            F                   C
Hear me sing, "Swim to me, Swim to me, Let me unfold you
C         G          F           G      C 
Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"
