Verse 1
E
A
D
I was born on the river
G
D
that flows to the sea
F#m
Bm
E
And all that I know she taught it to me
A
D
She's a dangerous beauty,
G
D
she's fickle and cold
F#m
If you give her respect,
E
A
D
she might let you grow
Bm
She's the siren that calls to us
D
when we're ashore
A
Bm
We can smell her and taste her
E
A
and hear the waves roll
D
She's a giver and a maker
G
D
and a taker of lives
F#m
Em
She's the tears of the mothers
A
D
and daughters and wives
G
So, Lightkeeper,
make sure your flame's burning bright
D
F#m
Bm
And keep us well off
E
A
of those rocks an d these bars
G
And guide our way home
through the dark of the night
D
F#m

D
We'll dim the bad weather,
G
D
we'll go out today
F#m
Bm
And shoulder to shoulder,
E
A
we'll pull a day's pay
D
We'll work with the wind,
G
and we'll sail with the tide
D
F#m
E
And haul the fish up
A
D
from wherever they hide
Bm
We belong to the ocean,
D
A
for better or worse
Bm
And God will decide
E
A
if it's blessing or curse
D
Pitch black and blowing,
G
that's her gift to give
D
F#m
Em
She may kill us tomorrow,
A
D
but tonight let us live
G
So light keeper,
make sure your flame's burning bright
D
F#m

And keep us well off

of those rocks and these bars

And guide our way home
