Seafarers Lullaby chords by Ginny Di

• Capo on 3rd

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:

Dm Am E Am



Verse:
Am                C
Far beneath the rolling tides
Dm                 Am
Where the sunbeams cannot go
Dm                       Am
Gilled and scaled, with sightless eyes
E              Am
Monsters down below

Verse:
Am             C
Lurking in the icy deep
Dm               Am
Where the sea is black as ink
Dm               Am
Swimming horrors lie asleep
E                  Am
Dreaming you will sink


Chorus:
  Dm                   Am           Dm               Am
So keep your feet fast on the land, never you go too far
  Dm                 Am             E                Am
Or feel the clutch of icy hands, and never again see stars


Instrumental:
Am C Dm Am
Dm Am E Am


Verse:
Am                C
Should you hear a sweet refrain
Dm            Am
Turn away, my son, and flee
Dm               Am
Do not heed that distant strain
E              Am
Calling you to sea


Verse:
Am                  C
Should you give her what she craves
Dm               Am
You will pay an endless toll
Dm             Am
She is waiting in the waves
E               Am
Hungry for your soul


Chorus:
  Dm                   Am           Dm               Am
So keep your feet fast on the land, never you go too far
  Dm                 Am             E                Am
Or feel the clutch of icy hands, and never again see stars


Verse/Finale:
Am                C
When one day we’re far apart
Dm                 Am
And you hear that melody
Dm               Am
Keep this song beside your heart
E                  Am
Come back home to me
