Sailor's Rest - Stan Rogers - Home In Halifax - Chords Note - I'm not exactly sure how he does the little thing at the beginning of the chorus, but I played around with my guitar a bit, and what I've got there sounds pretty good to me :P
It's Facrimony Gdown in the card-Froom, with Fwinning hands thrown on the baize For-Ggotten cards wait on the end of debate on theF good oldC7 days FCaptains and mates gettin' tesC7-ty, with Fmemories not of the D7best And Ftempers are flyin', Fdown at the Sailor's FRest
FBlue eyes Gin wrinkled FMo-rocco, stiFll search the horizon for squalls And GZeroes in the sky, and the watchkeeper's eye, and theF pawnshopC7 balls The Fspice in the wind off ofC7 Java, and the Fbars in Papeete were D7best But the Fdeck is too steady, Fdown at the Sailor's FRest
CHORUS G-C7-G7sus4 C7 F And, oh, how they talked of the day they'd ar-rived
When Dmafter the years, all the Fstorms and the tears, still Dmvery much a-Glive C7-G7sus4 C7 F And, oh, how their lives were spilled out on the floor From the Dmbattered old seabags, the Dmjournals and logs And the kDmeepsakes locked in the cD7hests That were Fstowed in the attic, Fdown at the Sailor's FRest
No Frail on the Gmessroom Ftable, and you're Fdead if you spit on the floor GNo grog allowed, no singin' too loud, and nFo locks on thC7e doors But there's Falways a fire in the C7card room, and the Ftucker is always the D7best And they'll Fend it together, Fdown at the Sailor's FRest
CHORUS G-C7-G7sus4 C7 F And, oh, how they talked of the day they'd ar-rived
When Dmafter the years, all the Fstorms and the tears, still Dmvery much a-Glive C7-G7sus4 C7 F And, oh, how their lives were spilled out on the floor From the Dmbattered old seabags, the Dmjournals and logs And the kDmeepsakes locked in the cD7hests That were Fsold at the auction, Fdown at the Sailor's FRest
So iFt's acrimonyG down in Fthe card-room, witFh winning hands thrown on the baize GFor-gotten cards wait on the end of debate Fon the good oC7ld days FCaptains and mates gettin' tC7es-ty, with Fmemories not of the D7best But they'll Fend it together', Fdown at the Sailor's FRest
