Intro: Am Am  F F

Am Am
My lover's arms,
F F
they beg me to stay.
Am Am
But I know the storms,
F F
they will sweep me away.

E E
My daughter's eyes,
F F
they are two tiny seas,
E E
whose water will rise
F F
and then run down her cheeks.


Am Am
"Father where do you go,
Cmaj7 Cmaj7
so far out upon the sea,
F F C C Em Em
when are you coming home to me?"
Am Am
"Darling why do you leave,
Cmaj7 Cmaj7
as the north wind begins to blow?
F F C C Em Em
Will you be coming home to me?"

Am Am, F F

Am Am
The boat and the blade,
F F
they are all that I know;
Am Am
the sea calls my name,
Bb Bb
and so I must go.
E E
And while they still sleep,
F F
I slip out through the door;
E E
but how can I leave,
F F
with my anchors ashore?

Am Am
"Father where do you go?
Cmaj7 Cmaj7
It's farther than I can see,
F F C C Em Em
when are you coming home to me?"
Am Am
"Darling why do you leave,
Cmaj7 Cmaj7
as the north wind begins to blow?
F F C C Em Em
Will you be coming home to me?"

Am7 Am7, F F, Am Am, Cmaj7 Cmaj7
