  Am                               G

  Dear wind that shakes the barley free,

   

  Am                               G   G/F#     Em

  Blow home my true love's ship to me, fill her sails.

   

  Am                      G

  I a-weary wait upon the shore.

   

   

  Am                          G

  Forsake her not in times of storm,

   

  Am                           G     G/F#     Em

  protect her oaken beams from harm, fill her sails.

   

  Am                      G

  I a-weary wait upon the shore.

   

   

  Am                   G

  Whether he be in Africa

   

  Am                    G  G/F#     Em

  Or deep asleep in India, fill his dreams,

   

  Am                      G

  I a-weary wait upon the shore.

   

   

  Am                             G

  Dear snow white gulls upon the wing,

   

  Am                     G    G/F#   Em

  I, like you, are lamenting, for my love.

   

  Am                      G

  I a-weary wait upon the shore.

   

   

  Am                   G

  And in my chariot of sleep,

   

  Am                         G     G/F# Em

  I ride the vast and dreamy deep, deep sea.

   

  Am                     G

  I awake a-weary on the shore.

   

   

  Am                         G

  For seven years and seven days,

   

  Am                         G     G/F# Em

  no man has seen my woman's ways, dear God.

   

  Am                         G

  I a-weary cry upon the shore.

   

   

  Am                        G

  Along the shingle beach I go,

   

  Am                     G   G/F# Em

  the wind about me as I make my way,

   

  Am                        G

  to my weary dream upon my bed.

   

   

  Am                               G

  Dear wind that shakes the barley free,

   

  Am                               G   G/F#     Em

  Blow home my true love's ship to me, fill her sails.

   

  Am                      G

  I a-weary wait upon the shore.

   

  Am                      G

  I a-weary wait upon the shore.
