Port Song by Adam Arcuragi
Standard tuning
C
Well let me get your boots for you
G
I’m sure that I’ll be fine
F
Darling I’m sure, but that’s not what I had in mind
C
Then leave that sink alone
G
I’m sure that they can wait ’till morning
F
There’s one more drinking cup
Fm
we will leave tonight unwashed
C G
So let me be your come back down
Dm F
Let me be your gettin’ on
C G Dm F
Let me be the first voice as you step down from that boat
C G
Tell me of the sea and foam
Dm F
A thousand ocean-miles from home
C G Dm F
The simple gift is the song you hear from this small familiar shore
C
You’ve seen the sun from all around
G
and happily you’re so
F C
this old world has yet to give you up
C
But if there were given more,
G
to this tiny happy shore
F
When the purpose that was fine
Fm
freed itself from that divine
C G
So let me be your come back down
Dm F
steady as a hand to hold
C G Dm F
Let me be the first voice as you step down from that boat
C G
Tell me of the sea and foam
Dm F
A thousand ocean-miles from home
C G Dm F
The simple gift is the song you hear from this small familiar shore
C G Dm F (x2)
C (fade out)
