(tacet) Am C Dm By the storm torn shoreline, a woman is standing Am C Am The spray strung like jewels in her hair Am C Dm And the sea tore the rocks, near that desolate landing Am C Dm Am As though it had known, she stood there CHORUS (Exact progression as above) For she had come down, to condemn that wild ocean For the murderous loss of her man His boat sailed out, on Wednsday mornin' And its feared she's gone down, with all hands. More Verses: Oh, and white were the wavecaps, and wild was their parting So fierce is(as) the warring of love But she prayed to the Gods, both of men and of sailors Not to cast their cruel nets o'er her love [Chorus] [Solo] Dm Am C Am E|-------1---------------0---------------0---------------0-------------------| B|-----3---3-----------1---1-----------1---1-----------1---1---1-------------| G|---2-------2---2---2-------2-------0-------0---0---2-------2---2-----------| D|-0---------------2-----------2-0-------------2-----------------------------| A|-------------0-------------------3---------------0-------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| This is played up to four times, but usually only twice. There are some slight variations that can be played on this, but this is only important to note on the four time solo. (This is sorta something I made up, and may not be what is on the albulm, as there it is an accompniment of some flutes, etc. It does a good job of staying with the flow though) The exit to the solo is as follows from the last Am Am E|-------0---------------0---------------3---------------0-----------0-------| B|-----1---1-----------1---1-----------0---0-----------1---1-------1---1-----| G|---2-------2-------0-------0---0---0-------0---0---2-------2---2-------2---| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|-0-----------0-2-3-----------0---2---------------0-----------0-------------| E|---------------------------------------------3-----------------------------| There's a school on the hill, where the son's of dead fathers Are led towards tempests and gails Where their God given wings, are clipped close to their bodies And their eyes are bound round, with ship's sails. [Chorus] What force leads a man, to a life filled with danger High on seas, or a mile underground? Its when need is his master, and poverty's no stranger And there's no other work to be found.
