The Last Serenade

Intro:
D       A       D       G       D       A       D       A

D               A
Sailors and Fishermen
   G               Bm
go down to the harbor where
D               A          D    A
many a good soul set sail
D                            A
But the ships they have gone
          Bm               G
with the hake and the cod
D          A       D
never to return again

          Bm                D
Without nets lives are torn
            G                   D
without a captain forever moored
        Bm      D                       G       F#
All aboard’s requiem haunts the waves
          D             A
With no hands upon deck
        Bm              G
and no love waving back
        D       A               D
Oh darling, we’ve lost our way
G                           D
So hail to the sailors and fishermen
A                       D               A
Hail to their last serenade

Interlude:
Bm      G       D       A       D       A

D               A         G             Bm
Tinkers and travelers born to our caravans
         D          A                    D      A
though ivy grows wild round their doors
                D               A
But like the horse and the cart
          Bm            G
there’s no turning back
   D             A              D
So welcome to our fixed abode

                Bm              D
They say a song’s never done
            G                      D
while the song’s still being sung
        Bm                D         G           F#
but a voice with the road disappears
        D               A
Our traditions now spent
          Bm              G
With no cash for the rent
        D               A            D
Left standing with no place to go


    G                           D
So hail to the sailors and fishermen
G                               A
hail to their ghosts that remain
        D               A               Bm                  G
So goodbye to your dreamers, vagabonds and true believers
D          A            Bm
long may sing once again
         G              A               Bm
I said long may you sing once again

           G

May this life take you there
           F#
May this life, may this life
           F#                                   Bm
May this life, may this life take you there

           G
May this life take you there
           Bm
May this life take you there
           F#
May this life, may this life
           F#                                   Bm
May this life, may this life take you there

    G                           D
Ah, hail to the sailors and fishermen
G                               A
hail to their ghosts that remain
        D               A               Bm                  G
So goodbye to your dreamers, vagabonds and true believers
D              A            Bm
long may you sing once again
             D              A                 Bm                       G
I said goodbye to your dreamers, you vagabonds and true believers
D              A            D
long may you sing once again
