The Reach by Dan Fogelburg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- D D- A E ... D D- A E

E
It's Maine and it's Autumn

                            F#m  B
The Birches have just begun turning

E
It's life and it's dying

                            F#m   B
The lobsterman's boats come returning

         C#m                       A
With the catch of the day in their holds

        E                    F#m    B
And the young boys cold and complaining

A
The fog meets the beaches

And out on the Reach it is raining. D D- A E ... D D- A E --

E
It's father and son

                                      F#m  B
It's the way it's been done since the old days

E
It's hauling by hand ten miles out from the land

             F#m   B
Where their chow waits

        C#m                      A
And the days are all lonley and long

         E                        F#m    B
And the seas grow so stormy and strong, but...

E
The Reach will sing welcome

as homeward they hurry along -- CHORUS:

        E
	And the morning will blow away

                                A
	As the waves crash and fall

                             E
	And The Reach like a siren sings

                           F#m  A
	As she beckons and calls

                            E
	As the coastline recedes from view

                               A
	And the seas swell and grow

                             E
	I will take from The Reach

                           F#m  A
	All the she has to teach

                B            E
	To the depths of my soul

E
The wind brings a chill

                                   F#m  B
There's a frost on the sill in the morning

E
It creeps through the door

                              F#m  B
And out on the shore, ice is forming

         C#m                       A
Soon the Northers will bluster and blow

        E                            F#m  B
And the woods will be whitened with snowfall

        E
And The Reach will lie frozen

For the lost and unchosen to row. CHORUS: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: D- I don't know the name of this chord, but it's just a D with your finger off the E string. ________________________________________________________________ ___ Phil Bearce at HP San Jose - Components (/__) /_ . /) internet: [email protected] / / )_(__(_ - "Look out for that root." -James Taylor ________________________________________________________________
