Seashore Mountain Lady Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
She [G]moves with the grace of
[D]the deer and the squirrel
[G]High in the mountains on
the [D]edge of the world
[Em]With her haunted eyes
[C]turned toward the sea
Her [B]skirt's wrapped around her,
and her hair blowin' [E]free.
Down beside the ocean,
[B]the doorways face the sea.
Lookin' [E]out across the water,
[B]on eternity.
Down from the mountains, [A]like the rolling tides,
comes a [Bm]seashore mountain lady with
the haunted [F#]eyes.
[G]Can you tell me just how[D] you came to be,
[G]living in the mountains by [D]the rolling sea?
Did you [Em]leave behind a shelter for
your [C]long hair blowin' free?
Cause [B]that's what your eyes say [E]to me.
You sit there with your baby and
[B]you're all dressed in blue
Wearin' [E]roses on your shoulders
an[B]d mud cake shoes a[E]nd you're l[C#m]istening to
the wind [A]as it sings to you from
[Bm]someplace down inside yourself
as children often [F#]do
did you [G]come here for the living that
[D]makes you try your wings for [G]tasting
cold and hunger [D]an d leaving pretty things,
did you [Em]come here for someone [C]who works
with the land, who'll [B]reach inside your soul with his
[E]hands?[Em][G]
[D][G][D][Em]
[C][B][E]
[C#m]
[E]Living in the mountains
[B]by the rolling sea
You [E]live with the wind al[B]ways blowing free
It [C#m]glows in the rain, it [A]bends the growing trees
It [Bm]tears at your heart like a
seashore mountain [F#]lady
She [G]moves with the grace of
[D]the deer and the squirrel
[G]High in the mountains on
the [D]edge of the world
[Em]With her haunted eyes [C]turned toward the sea,
her [B]skirts wrapped around her, and her hair blowing [E]free.
