The Sea Rose The Handsome Family
[INTRO]
[G]
[VERSE 1]
Wr[G]apped in the w[D]eeds of the sh[G]allows
[C] In the moon's drifting l[G]ight
C[C]alling from the c[G]old, wet rocks,
the sea ro-[D]ose of the l[G]ow tides
[VERSE 2]
A p[G]assing sh[D]ip along the c[G]oast
[C] heard her sadly c[G]alling
and t[C]urned its sails [G]to [F#/G]the s[Em]ound,
of the r[G]ose, the s[D]ea rose c[G]alling
[REFRAIN]
In the w[Em]aves, the w[D]aves she's c[G]alling
[CBORUS]
L[D]onely, lonely, my he[C]art is d[G]ark
[C] the r[G]ocks lie cold ben[D]eath me
Come cl[C]oser, closer d[G]ar[F#/G]ling [Em]one
We'll m[G]arr[D]y in the s[G]eaweed
[SOLO]

[VERSE 3]
[G]On the passing sh[D]ip, a sailor b[G]oy,
[C] he heard the sea rose c[G]alling
and fr[C]om the bow he d[G]ove[F#/G] on d[Em]own
to the w[G]aves, the w[D]aves are f[G]alling
[REFRAIN]
The w[Em]aves, the w[C]aves were f[G]alling
[VERSE 4]
C[G]ome, c[D]ome my darling b[G]oy
[C] into my arms aw[G]aiting
D[C]own, down in the c[G]old, [F#/G]dark s[Em]ea
I'm w[G]ait[D]ing here to l[G]ove you
[CBORUS]
[D]To her arms, her l[C]ovely [G]arms,
[C] the c[G]urrents pulled him spl[D]ashing,
b[C]ut her body was [G]only [F#/G]foaming w[Em]aves
and her v[G]oice [D] just water r[G]ushing
[OUTRO]
In the w[Em]aves the s[C]ea rose f[G]alling
In the w[Em]aves, the w[D]aves, my d[G]arling
The w[Em]aves, the s[D]ea rose c[C]alling [G]
