[Verse 1]
How [Cm]high the price!
[F]How deep [Bb]the water[F]!
That makes [C]widows [Bb]out [Gm]of wives!
For this [F]is [Fsus4]not fish you're eatin[Bb]g,
This [C]is [Bb]men's [C]lives.[G]
Oh, [D]clouds the sky, the boats are [F#m]leav ing
[G]One last goodbye,
[D]dark water's call is [A]on
The northern [D]sea knows [F#m]well
the sound [Bm]of grieving
[G]How slight [D]the fate [A]we put our trust [D]upon
Then [A]go [D]we [A]most,
[G]no longer can we tabby
[Em]The waters[A] are w[D]ild,[A]
yet we [G]must go and [A]try
And like a [D]bird on a [F#m]silvery morning
[G]Home to your [D]side we will [A]chance [G]to fly
And the water [D]shines like patent leather
[F#m]We sea[G]rch for signs
[D]upon this lif[Bm]eless[A] ground
The reckoning [D]sky call[F#m]s down
some [Bm]heavy weather
[G]We've come for [D]fish,
[A]and fish need must [D]be found
Then [A]go [D]we [A]must, no [G]longer can we tally
[Em]The waters[A] un wi[D]nd[A],
yet we [G]must go and [A]try
And like a [D]bird on a [F#m]silvery morning
[G]Home to your [D]side we will [A]just [G]fly
And we [D]ride the veil of entrusted [F#m]glory
[G]So blanks [D]of wood grow
thicker [Bm]than [A]your thorn
It's all [D]that keeps the
[F#m]tending of our [Bm]story
[G]From being [D]lost,
[A]or maybe be[D]ing warm
Then [A]go we [D]must,
[A]no lon[G]ger can we [Em]tarry
The wa[A]ters [D]are [A]wide,
yet we [G]must go and [A]try
And like a [D]bird on a [F#m]silvery morning
[G]Home to your side [D]we
[A]will chance [G]to fly
All clouds, [D]the sky, the boats [F#m]are leaving
[G]One last good[D]bye,
dark water[Bm]s ca[A]lls on
The northern [D]sea knows [F#m]well
the sound [Bm]of grieving
[G]How slight [D]the fate [A]we put our trust [D]upon
And [A]though we [D]must,
[A]no lon[G]ger can we tarry
[Em]The wate[A]r's un[D] w[A]ind,
yet we [G]must go and [A]try
And like a [D]bird on a [F#m]silvery morning,
[G]Home to your side we [D]will
[A]chance [G]to fly.
Home to your side [D]we will [A]chance to fly.
