MIm LA6+9
Out at daybreak to the sun
SOL LAsus2 LA7sus2
Seas are drifting glass
MIm LA6+9
The tides were turning to the storm
SOL LAsus2
Winds were moving fast
DO RE
Women waiting at the harbour
SOL SI
Silent stand around
DO RE
Weather storms another day
SOL SI
For men the sea has found
Fisherman were laying nets
The barrels spread the bait
The seagulls warning echoed round
Winds that wouldn't wait
People gathered at the harbour
Waiting for the tide
Eyes half closed against the spray
And tears they cannot hide
Chorus
MIm LAm
Shadows falling at the harbour
RE SOL
Women stant around
MIm LAm
Weather storms another way
RE SIm MIm LA6+9 SOL LAsus2 LA7sus2
For man the sea had drowned
Hulls were creaking crashing sails
Rains were slanting down
The oilskins flapping, decks awash
Slanting turning round
Thunder roaring at the harbour
Women drawn in fear
Huddle up to wait the time
And pray the sky well clear
Howling winds and the raging waves
Cracked upon the boats
And torn from safety, torn from life
Men with little hope
Ghostly echoes at the harbour
Whispering of death
Women weeping holding hands
Of those they still have left
Chorus
Shadows falling at the harbour
Women stant around
Weather storms another way
For man the sea had drowned
