Chords
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?"
