Am
My lover's arms,
F7M
they beg me to stay.
Am
But I know the storms,
F7M
they will sweep me away.
E
My daughter's eyes,
F7M
they are two tiny seas,
E
whose water will rise
F7M
and then run down her cheeks.
Am
"Father where do you go,
C7M
so far out upon the sea,
F7M C E
when are you coming home to me?"
Am
"Darling why do you leave,
C7M
as the north wind begins to blow?
F7M C E
Will you be coming home to me?"
Am
The boat and the blade,
F7M
they are all that I know
Am
the sea calls my name,
F
and so I must go.
E
And while they still sleep,
F7M
I slip out through the door
E
but how can I leave,
F7M
with my anchors ashore?
Am
"Father where do you go?
C7M
It's farther than I can see,
F7M C Em
when are you coming home to me?"
Am
"Darling why do you leave,
C7M
as the north wind begins to blow?
F7M C Em
Will you be coming home to me?"
