Siren Song chords by Audrey Auld

🎸 Intro:

G D G



🎸 Verse 1:
G              C
I was born on a mountain
           G              D
I found my world among the ferns
           G          C
Wrapped in Brahms as a baby
D                   G
Silently watching it burn

🎸 Verse 2:
                     C
I came of age with a hard truth
         G               D
I saw my father stand and cry
          G              C
I found a friend in Bobby Dazzler
      G     D           G
As my family splintered inside

🎸 Verse 3:
                    C
I gave myself to my demons
        G                  D
Lost my dreams to pills and punk
           G            C
I danced a long careless spiral
        G        D         G
Through fields of sorrow and junk

🎸 Verse 4:
     C     G
I am not my mother
     C                D
I am not the words she said
       C                   G Em
I will not bear my father’s burden
       G                        D
I have cried those tears from my head

🎸 Verse 5:
          G              C
I found a man
I found so many
              G                D
But there was not one who found me
         G               C
I put my heart out on the highway
    G         D     G
And watched it slowly bleed

🎸 Verse 6:
                          C
There came a devil with a guitar
        G                 D
And the promise of love so strong
            G          C
I wrapped myself in his reflection
    D                G
And sold it all for a song

🎸 Verse 7:
     C     G
I am not so stupid
     C           D
As I was way back then
     C                G   Em
I am still my father’s daughter
      G           D
I’m a Buddhist Ayn Rand

🎸 Instrumental:
D C G C D C G Em G D

🎸 Verse 8:
        G                  C
I saw a ship adrift on the ocean
        G             D
So many years, so many seas
           G               C
I felt the winds blowing me closer
       G       D       G
Till I saw that ship was me

🎸 Verse 9:
           C           G
Oh come to me, handsome sailor
        C            D
Lift me up and let me be
         C          G Em
Hear the song of the siren
    G               D
For that’s all I can be



🎸 Verse 10:
         C           G
You will not fall and shatter
         C         D
You will not break apart
        C              GEm
I’m the stone
I am the water
        G                D
I’m the storm inside your heart

🎸 Instrumental:
D C G C D C G Em G D



🎸 Verse 11:
           G         C
I trust my pen on the paper
        G          D
And the music in my head
       G       C
I love sweet isolation
        D                     G
And the beauty when nothing is said



🎸 Verse 12:
                    C
I was born on a mountain
       G               D
I will die when it’s my time
       G                C
I give thanks for your attention
    G       D      G
The pleasure was all mine
