Song to the Siren Tim Buckley
Verse 1:
[Bb]Long afloat [F]on shipless oceans
[Eb]I did all my[Gm] best to smile
[Bb]'Til your singing [F]eyes and fingers
[Eb]Drew me lovi[Gm]ng to your isle
[Bb]And you sa[Ab]ng
Sail to [Eb]me, sail to me
[Bb]Let me enfold you
[Gm]Here I am
Here I a[F]m
Waiting to [Eb]hold [Gm]you
Verse 2:
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you hare when I was fox?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken lovelorn on your rocks,
For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow:
O my heart, O my heart shies from the sorrow"
Verse 3:
I am puzzled as the newborn child
I'm as riddled at the tide
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Or should I lie with Death my bride?
Hear me sing, "Swim to me, Swim to me, Let me enfold you:
Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"
***
With a capo at the third fret, you can play
[G] [D] [C] [Em]
[G] [F] [C] [G]
[Em] [D] [C] [Em]
