Biography:
Said the Whale is a Canadian band formed in 2007 as a collaboration between songwriters Ben Worcester and Tyler Bancroft. The pair’s debut EP, Taking Abalonia, featured sunny west coast indie pop, with breezy harmonies, shimmering guitars and lyrical tributes to their home city of Vancouver, “nodding at times to the sea shanties of Neutral Milk Hotel and at others to the boat-shoe-gazing of Vampire Weekend” said The National Post. In 2008, the album was re-released as Howe Sounds/Talking Abalonia

Ok this is my 2nd tab, I just thought I'd give it a shot because it wasn't up here and
a good tune.
It's not 100% correct, but it sounds somewhat like what they play so here ya go. It's
a pick-then-strum song so just fiddle around with it and I'm sure you'll work it out.
Oh uh Capo on 3rd, but it sounds fine without one too. ENJOY
[Verse]
Am C/B C F
Just fifteen miles from shore
Am C/B C F
I lost the love that I had
Am C/B C F
Slipped and fell into the cold
Am C/B C F
Of the deep and the dark below
Am C/B C F
Big wave, small boat
Am C/B C F
We tipped, I froze
Am C/B C F
My hands were ice, my feet were stone
Am C/B C F
I could not throw the rope
[Verse]
E Am
I caught her eye as she dipped down with a wave
Am C/B C F
I jumped in but I was too late
Am C/B C F
Fighting with the currents of the Georgia Strait
Am C/B C F
Fighting with the wind and the tide and the waves
Am C/B C F
I lost my love that day
[Verse]
E Am
I touched her fingers as she breathed out my name
Am C/B C F
She smiled at me, I watched her fade away
Am C/B C F
To the deep and the dark of the under wave
Am C/B C F
To the Currents of the Georgia Strait
[Verse]
Am C/B C F
And here it's been ten years to the day
Am C/B C F
And here I'll sit for a hundred years and I'll wait
Am C/B C F
Till I see her smiling face
Am C/B C F
Come shining up through the waves
Am C/B C F
On the shore, in the rain I'll wait
Am C/B C F
Till I see my love again
[Verse]
E Am
I pray to God, I curse my luck, I question my faith
Am C/B C F
I curse my empty-hearted fate
Am C/B C F
And I curse the wind and the tide and the waves
Am C/B C F
And I curse the currents of the Georgia Strait
Am C/B C F
Where I lost my love that day
Am C/B C F
Where I lost my heart
Am C/B C F
To the curse of the currents of the Georgia Strait
Am C/B C F
It's the curse of the currents of the Georgia Strait
