Gaelic Storm - Lovers wreck

^EmA hundred days at sea, ^DA wretch away from misery ^CRummies and rats and tarry jacks my on^Dly fam^Emily ^EmThe island of salvation Is^D still a scream away ^DAs the lu^Emngs of the night Blow o^Aut the light my heart kneels Down t^Emo pray

^EmLord why did you take her S^Dhe meant so much to me ^EmNow I'm a wretched soul on a ^Bmprivateer Drowning out at ^Emsea ^EmI'm killing and I'm drinking ^DMy blue heart to black But I sw^Gear oh lord I'll never sin again ^CIf you bring her ^Emback

^EmThe Gypsy was a siren, ^DDripping with desire Her mo^Conlit hair and skin so fair a^Ds warm as frozen f^Emire ^EmShe had the loyalty of a cat, behi^Dnd those pale green eyes Through h^Emer cherry li^Aps, the devil ^Dslipped a thousand l^Emies ^EmA clan of rogues and vagabonds, ^Doccupied her head That thie^Emving band took her p^Cale white hand and st^Dole her from my b^Emed ^EmAnd like a ghost ship in the night, She dri^Dfted out once more To la^And upon the sand of a^Bmnother lover's ^Emshore

^EmLord why did you take her S^Dhe meant so much to me ^EmNow I'm a wretched soul on a ^Bmprivateer Drowning out at ^Emsea ^EmI'm killing and I'm drinking ^DMy blue heart to black But I sw^Gear oh lord I'll never sin again ^CIf you bring her ^Emback

^EmIn my sleeping mind she sings a sad and ^Dlonely lullaby ^CWhen I wake there's just the ache it will h^Daunt me till I ^Emdie ^EmWhen those winds of vanity ^Dno longer blow her west ^EmI pray they'll guide her ^Ahome [across the foam] and ^Dput my heart to ^Emrest ^EmPress gang filled this Man-o-War ^DTo make the black mouthed cannon roar ^EmNow all my trade is ^Cball and blade, and ^Dblood forever ^Emmore ^EmAnd the sting of salt and spray, the ^Docean's howl and squall ^AA stumbling wreck, I roam the deck, at the ^Bmdevil's beck and ^Emcall ^BmAt the devil's beck and ^Emcall

^EmLord why did you take her S^Dhe meant so much to me ^EmNow I'm a wretched soul on a ^Bmprivateer Drowning out at ^Emsea ^EmI'm killing and Iâm drinking ^DMy blue heart to black But I sw^Gear oh lord I'll never sin again ^CIf you bring her ^Emback
