Best song from Crane Wife.

for rythm listen the song.

capo 4

intro (great lead by acordion)
A minorAm C majorC E MajorE

A minorAm   C majorC
Ramblin' where to begin
G+G
I taste the summer on your peppery skin
A minorAm     C majorC
Been saved the warmer the waves
G+G
I felt a slip into a watery grave
A minorAm C majorC E MajorE 2x
(back vocals) ooh la ladi dadi da orsmth.

A minorAm   C majorC
My girl, linen and curls
E MajorE
Lips parting like a flag all unfurled
A minorAm     C majorC
She's grand the bend of her hand
E MajorE
Digging deep into the sweep of the sand
A minorAm C majorC E MajorE 2x
(back vocals) ooh la ladi dadi da orsmth.

chorus:
G+G   A minorAm   G+G        A minorAm
Summer arrives with a length of lights
G+G   A minorAm   FF
Summer blows away
C majorC        G+G       A minorAm   C majorC E MajorE
And quietly gets swallowed by a wave
               A minorAm  C majorC E MajorE
It gets swallowed by a wave


Waylay the din of the day
Boats bobbing in the blue of the bay
In deep far beneath all the dead sailors
Slowly slipping to sleep

My girl, linen and curls
Lips parting like a flag all unfurled
She's grand the bend of her hand
Digging deep into the sweep of the sand

Summer arrives with a length of lights
Summer blows away
And quietly gets swallowed by a wave
It gets swallowed by a wave...
