[Intro]
Am Am7 Am6 Dm7 Am
Am7 Am6 Dm7 Am
[Verse 1]
Am
The daylight quickly fading,
Dm
with his headache wearing off,
G
the collar of his over coat
Am E7 Am
muffling his cough.
Dm
A siren from a ship
Am
barely made him raise his head,
E
since he'd missed the boat to Malmo,
Am E Am
he'd try Gothenburg instead.
[Verse 2]
Am
Outside snow was falling,
Dm
like torn up betting slips,
G
confetti for the jilted, wedding
Am E Am
night of passing ships.
Dm
And if they ever find her,
Am
she'll be one more on the list,
E
and if they never find her,
Am E Am
how long will she be missed
[Instrumental]
Am Am7 Am6 Dm7 Am
Am7 Am6 Dm7 Am
[Verse 3]
Am
Black skeletons of cranes
Dm
against the snow at night,
G
witness dockside shadows
Am E Am
that negotiate the night.
Dm
Lost souls flew like seagulls
Am
who have slipped their earthly chain,
E
risen and returned
Am E Am
as the snow turns into rain.
