Chords
The song is in 3/4 time, so the easiest way to play it is to play the bass note
followed by two downstrokes. The verse sections are a repeat of the intro with
each chord getting two measures. The progression and timing vary at the bridge,
so listen to the song to get it down.

F C Dm Am
[Verse 1]
F C I'm just a man but I know that I'm damned Dm C All the dead seem to know where I am F C The tale that began on the night of my birth Dm Am Will be done in a turn of the earth F C Lie where I land, let my bones turn to sand Dm C I was born on the lake and I don't wanna leave it F C Every eye on the coast evermore Dm Am Will remember the sight of the ghost on the shore

[Verse 2]
F C Under the waves and the earth of an age Dm C Lie a thousand old northerner's graves F C Deep in the night when the moon's glowing bright Dm Am They come rising up into the light F C Die if I must, let my bones turn to dust Dm C I'm the Lord of the lake and I don't wanna leave it F C All who sail off the coast evermore Dm Am Will remember the tale of the ghost on the shore
