Intro: Am  F

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

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


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

Am, F

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

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