[Verse 1]
D
She went out and found
A G
Her father face down on the ground
A
Out in the cold
[Verse 2]
D
She walked her way around
A G
A hill with the sun sinking down
A
Into the snow
[Verse 3]
Em G D A
All the whitecaps of the waves slap
Em G
Like last hand claps
A Em
And the dark water dies in a crash
D
Is sucked back with a moan
A
And the smoke on the coast
[Verse 4]
Em
Oh, piled fathers
G A
Soft, sighing daughters
Em G A
Where does it go?
[Instrumental]
D
[Verse 5]
D
It's a dream, now
A
I'll describe
G A
Let your mind drift on down, like so
[Verse 6]
D
To when the world was young
A G
A big sky, blue of a dead bachelor's tongue
A
A new bloom on the rose
[Interlude]
Em G
So some line someone told says
D A
Even light can get old
[Verse 7]
Em
Oh, slobbering lovers
G
Drink-clinking brothers
A Em G A x3
They don't have to tell us, 'cause we know
[Instrumental]
D
[Verse 8]
D
What a way down
A G
What a ride, what a slide spin-around
A
What a life to have known
[Verse 9]
D
What a time
A G
And how I was singing out in a crowd
A
Of the thousand most frightening faces I've known
[Verse 10]
Em G
And when the lighthouse
D A
Lending us sight finally went out
Em G
What a fright we felt
A
In that night
[Verse 11]
Em
Friends just shout it out
D
All the whys and don't knows
A
All the cries in our throats
Em G
And how right we felt
[Verse 12]
D
With our eyes tightly closed
A
Holding something we broke
Em
And then whimpering sisters
G
Sobbing well-wishers
A
It's over
[Outro]
D
Just let my hand go
D
She went out and found
A G
Her father face down on the ground
