James Keelaghan - Sea For The Shore







INTRO: G   D   Em   C-D-  (4x)

    G             D/F#             Em            C
The lights of the freighters, they danced on the water
        G             D/F#         Em           C
As they tugged at the anchors that held them at bay
    G           D/F#        Em        C
And lost in her arms, boys, I too was dancing
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D-
I traded the sea for the shore
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D-G
I traded the sea for the shore

INTERLUDE: G   D   Em   C-D-  (4x)


    G              D/F#            Em             C
The light from the moon turned the wet streets to silver
      G              D/F#        Em            C
As we walked hand in hand up the road from the bay
    G           D/F#           Em          C
And me glancing backwards from where I had come, boys
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D-
I traded the sea for the shore
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D-
I traded the sea for the shore


    G               D/F#             Em      C
The lights from the streetlamps cast haloes upon us
      G             D/F#           Em          C
As we leaned by the railing at the foot of her stairs
  G                 D/F#         Em            C
I touched her cheek lightly, the skies now are clearing
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D-
I traded the sea for the shore
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D-G
I traded the sea for the shore


INTERLUDE: G   D   Em   C-D-  (4x)


    G              D/F#         Em                C
The light from the sun, well it shone through the curtains
            G           D/F#                 Em          C
Touched the edge of her shoulder, caught the glow in her eyes
    G           D/F#               Em            C
The horn of the freighter called, "Home, wayward sailors"
      G          D/F#        Em    C-D-
But I traded the sea for the shore
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D-
I traded the sea for the shore
  G          D/F#        Em
I traded the sea for the shore
