Verse 1
She Stands (G major)
With A Lantern
Swinging (D major) In Her Left Hand
On the (E minor) golden sandbanks of Brookhaven (C major)
(G major) Trying to guide (D major) her fisherman
back (E minor) home (C major)
But the (G major) sea is dark and the (D major) night is black
And these (E minor) mountains of water grow (C major) higher
And the (G major) saltwater wind
has (D major) pierced through her skin
And her (E minor) frail body soaked to the (C major) bone
It's (E minor) a long road (G major) (C major)
It's (E minor) a long road (G major) (C major)
This (G major) old boat has provided (D major) bounty
For (E minor) me and my family
(C major) But the (G major) merciful sea
She (D major) will give and take
forever (E minor) (C major)
(G major) Heaven's door, they (D major) say it's next door
With (E minor) hell waiting around the (A minor) corner (C major)
So wherever (G major) I go, my dear
I will (D major) let you know
(E minor) And for you, I will wait (A minor) wherever
(C major) It's (E minor) a long road (G major) (C major)
It's (E minor) a long road (G major) (C major) (G major) (D major) (E minor)
(C major) (D major) (G major) (D major) (G major) (E minor) (D major) (E minor) (C major)
I'm a (E minor) victim to this (G major) unforgiving wa (C major) ter
And that (A minor) silent whisper of the (G major) whale's song
It lures (C major) me down
And my (E minor) grave, my (G major) grave is dark
an (C major) d deep here, honey
And I'm (E minor) now left to (G major) swim
with all these wild (C major) horses
It's (E minor) a long road (G major) (C major)
It's (E minor) a long road (G major) (C major)
She stands (G major) with a lantern
swinging (D major) in her left hand
On the (E minor) golden sandbanks of Crookhaven (C major)
(G major) Trying to guide her
(D major) fisherman back (E minor) home (C major)
But the (G major) sea is dark and the (D major) night is black
And these (E minor) mountains of water grow (C major) higher
And the (G major) salt water wind
has pierced (D major) through her skin
And her (E minor) frail body's soaked to the (C major) bone
It's (E minor) a long road (G major) home (C major)
It's (E minor) a long road (G major) (C major)
It's (E minor) a long road (G major) (C major)
It's (E minor) a long, it's (G major) a long road (C major)
