(From the 1979 Album SAFE AT ANCHOR)
[Verse 1]
F C She moves with the grace of the deer and the squirrel F C High in the mountains on the edge of the world Dm Bb With her haunted eyes turned toward the sea A7 D A Her skirts wrapped around her and her hair blowin' free
[Verse 2]
D A Down beside the ocean, the doorways face the sea D A7 Looking out across the water on eternity Bm G Down from the mountains, like the rolling tides Am B7 E Comes the seashore mountain lady with the haunted eyes
[Verse 3]
F C Can you tell me just how you came to be F C Living in the mountains by the rolling sea? Dm Bb Did you leave behind a shelter for your long hair blowing free? A7 D A 'Cause that's what your eyes say to me
[Verse 4]
D A You sit there with your baby and you're all dressed in blue D A Wearing roses on your shoulders and mud-caked shoes Bm G And you're listening to the wind as it sings to you Am B7 E From someplace down inside yourself as children often do
[Verse 5]
F C Did you come here for the living that makes you try your wings? F C For tasting cold and hunger and leaving pretty things? Dm Bb Did you come here for someone who works with the land A7 D Who'll reach inside your soul with his hands?

D A7 Living in the mountains by the rolling sea D A7 You live with the wind always blowing free Bm G That blows in the rain and bends the growing trees Am B7 E And tears at your heart like a seashore mountain lady
[Verse 7]
F C She moves with the grace of the deer and the squirrel F C High in the mountains on the edge of the world Dm Bb With her haunted eyes turned toward the sea A7 D Her skirts wrapped around her and her hair blowin' free
