Chords

[Intro] C F C F C F C [Verse 1] She is a weaver
                      F
Through her hands the bright thread travels

                                   C
Blue green water, willows weeping, silver stars
[Verse 2] She sings and sighs as the shuttle flies
                              F
Through the yarn like a Kerry dancer

                                 C             Am
Pink and purple velvet red for a lover's bed
[Chorus]
       Em                  Dm   C
Living north of San Francisco

               F                C      Am
With a man who built his house alone

       Em              Dm
Living peaceful in the country

    C                    G                  C      F   C
The lights of the Golden Gate will lead her home
[Verse 3] She is a spinner
                              F
In her hands the wooden wheel turns the wool around

      C
Then around again
[Verse 4] A gypsy from Bolinas
                        F
Sits and plays the mandolin

                                  C             Am
Faces smile in the firelight of a foggy night
[Chorus]
       Em                  Dm   C
Living north of San Francisco

               F           C      Am
Sometimes it's nice to be alone

               Em                    Dm
She says, it's peaceful where she is living

    C                    G                  C      Am
The lights of the Golden Gate will lead her home
[Bridge]
                G              F      C
You can see the bridges of the city

                      F         C      Am
Hanging in the air by steel and stone

               G                    F
She says, it's peaceful where she's living

    C                    G                  C      F   C
The lights of the Golden Gate will lead her home
[Verse 5] She is a weaver
                      F
Through her hands the bright thread travels

                                   C
Blue green water, willows weeping, silver stars
[Verse 6] She is my sister
                         F
The baby born when I was older

                                               C            Am
Her hands are light, her hair is bright as the summer sun
[Chorus]
       Em                  Dm   C
Living north of San Francisco

               F           C      Am
Sometimes it's nice to be alone

               Em              Dm
She says, it's peaceful in the country

    C                    G                  C
The lights of the Golden Gate will lead her home

    C                    G                  C      F   C
The lights of the Golden Gate will lead her home
