Tom: G
G
My oar breaks the water
We glide through the darkness
Em
She fills the night with her song
G
My heart won’t let go as we slide onto shore
Em
She whispers I won’t be long
Em D C G Em D G
[Chorus]
D G D
I’ll be here in the springtime, when the frost still
Em
lines the air
D G
Be gentle with yourself dear, cause your on
D Em
your own from here
G
Now into the fog goes my own one true love,
Em
and down a road unseen
G
I push off from land, an oar in each hand, and
Em
the River she rocks me to sleep
[Chorus]
D G
And I dream of the springtime, when the
D Em
poppies just start to bloom
D G D
I look to the west dear and hope to see you
Em
soon
G
But I wake in the night and I’m taking on water
Em
I don’t have the will to bail
G
It’s sink or it’s swim, it’s lose or it’s win
Em
When you’re gone, the trade winds wail
D G
So come home in the springtime, when the
D Em
laurel floods the road
D G
Well count down through the days dear
D Em
Til once again you’ll go
