Moonfleet Bay Chris de Burgh
Hi folks! Thats my version of Chris deBurgh's "Moonfleet Bay" from his latest Album
"Moonfleet and other stories". I think he plays it in "G" but I usually play it in "D".
Hope you enjoy it!
Intro: D-D-G-D-G-Bm-A-Bm
Verse 1:
Al[Bm]as poor [D]John, he [Em]was a [Bm]prisoner,
[D]Fortune’s fool for [G]many a [D]day,
[G]Blinded [D]by that [Em]cursed [Bm]diamond,
[Em]With his [Bm]freedom, [F#m]he must [Bm]pay;
Verse 2:
And [Bm]so it [D]was for [E]faithful [Bm]Elzevir,
[D]Cast in chains for [G]ten long [D]years,
With [G]never a [D]word of [Em]blame or [Bm]anger,
[Em]Just for [Bm]John, t’was [F#m]only [Bm]tears;

[Bm]Oh oh [Em]oh, only [Bm]tears,
Oh oh [A]oh ...

[D]Blow, wind blow, and [G]send them [D]home again,
[G]Set the [D]sails for [A]England’s way,
[G]Many a [A]heart is [D]grieving [Bm]for them,
[Em]Bring them [Bm]back to [A]Moonfleet [D]Bay;
And [Bm]as for [D]Grace, she’d [Em]still be [Bm]waiting,
[D]Waiting for her [G]only [D]love,
[G]Every [D]night a [Em]candle [Bm]burning [Em]at her [Bm]window,
[F#m]Should he [Bm]come;
[Bm]Oh oh [Em]oh, should he [Bm]come,
Oh oh [A]oh ...

[Em]Bring them [Bm]back to [A]Moonfleet [D]Bay;
[D]Blow, wind blow, and [G]send them [D]home again,
[G]Set the [D]sails for [A]England’s way,
[G]Many a [A]heart is [D]grieving [Bm]for them,
[Em]Bring them [Bm]back to [A]Moonfleet [D]Bay;
[G]Many a [A]heart is [D]grieving [Bm]for them,
