Genre: folk, pop, soft rock
C G C
The ways of man are passing strange
F G Am
He buys his freedom and he counts his change
F C Am
Then he lets the wind his days arrange
C F
And he calls the tide his master
C G C
Oh the days, oh the days
F G Am
Oh the fine long summer days
F Am
The fish come rolling in the bays
C F
And he swore he'd never leave me
C G C
But the days grow short and the year gets old
F G Am
And the fish won't stay where the water's cold
F C Am
And if they're going to fill the hold
C F
They've got to go offshore to find them
C G C
So they go outside on the raving deep
F C Am
And they pray the Lord their soul to keep
F C Am
But the waves will roll them all to sleep
C F
And the tide will be their keeper
C G C
Oh the tide, oh the tide
F G Am
Oh you dark and you bitter tide
F Am
If I can't have him by my side
C F
I guess I have to leave him
C G C
I gave you one, I gave you two
F G Am
The best that rotten old boat could do
F C Am
You wouldn't be happy till I gave you three
C F
But I'll be damned if you'll get me
C G C
Oh the tide, oh the tide
F G Am
Oh you dark and you bitter tide
F Am
If I can't have him by my side
C F
The water's welcome to him
C G C
Oh Lord I know that the day will come
F G Am
When one less boat comes slogging home
F C Am
I don't mind knowing that he'll be the one
