[VERSE 1]
I was Dborn under the stars, Never Ameant to journey fBmar From aGll the fDaces Gand the Dplace That I called Ahome And my Dfather lived the same And his fAather before Bmhim But Gnow I Dsee in Gmy son's Deyes Something has cAhanged And the Bmsmoke it has stopped F#mrising From the Gchimney up the Droad And the light no longer Ashines over the Bmdoor Last yDear I lent a Ahand The haul the Bmboats unto the Eland They've been Dlyin' there for Anineteen months Or Bmmore And I Dwonder will they Alie there evermDore
[VERSE 2]
Wasn't Dmany years ago That the Amen 'round here would Bmgo Out Gin there Dskiffs and Ghaul their Dtraps out on the Abay And then Dshortly they'd return Loaded dAown from stem to Bmstern GAnd we'd Doff the Gfish then Dstow the gear aAway Now the Bmwaters are as F#mbarren As the Gcliff that guard the Dcove And catch the north wind Ablowin' off the Bmshore And I Dwonder how an Aocean Turns as Bmlifeless as a Estone And I Dwonder can the sAea revive once Bmmore And I Dwonder will they Alie there everDmore

To go tAraipsin' off to Bmschool GAfter Dforty Gyears of Dlivin' of the Asea Now my Bmson he's barely F#mtwenty-one And hGandy at the Dtrawl For Dyears he helped my Afish the LabraBmdor Now he's Dmovin' to OnAtario befBmore the first snowEfall Dad theirs Dnothin' left for Ame 'round here no Bmmore And I Dwonder will I Asee his children Bmborn---G-| And I Dwonder will they lAie there everDmore
