A Message From The Trade Winds chords by Hank Snow

Chords with lyrics

G+G                        C majorC    G+G
The lights were burning low and Mister Midnight made his way

  D7D7                       G+G
Old Father Time had trudged along to close another day

                           C majorC    G+G
The old clock ticked and seemed to say your heart is sad and blue

     A7A7      D7D7          G+G
But just remember pal there's others broken too


 C majorC
I told the moon it was so hard to play love's losing hand

     G+G                 A7A7        D7D7
When you thought you drew a sweetheart she was just a fickle friend

   G+G                       C majorC     G+G
Don't mind my tears remember there's still a million hearts in bloom

      A7A7         D7D7       G+G
So keep on shining though I'm pining silvery moon

                       C majorC     G+G
The trade winds brought a message in from far across the sea

   D7D7                          G+G
They said they saw the silver sails that carried you from me

                     C majorC    G+G
They told me you were drifting on upon an endless tide

      A7A7        D7D7       G+G
And lonely seagulls hovered o'er you as you cried


  C majorC
If I could send a message on the crest of every wave

    G+G              A7A7           D7D7
They'd take you my forgiveness and two broken hearts we'd save

  G+G                        C majorC     G+G
But instead I'll ask each little star to guide your ship back home

      A7A7         D7D7       G+G
