[INTRO]
G
[VERSE 1]
G D G Wrapped in the weeds of the shallows C G In the moon's drifting light C G Calling from the cold, wet rocks, D G the sea ro-ose of the low tides
[VERSE 2]
G D G A passing ship along the coast C G heard her sadly calling C G F#/G Em and turned its sails to the sound, G D G of the rose, the sea rose calling
[REFRAIN]
Em D G In the waves, the waves she's calling
[CHORUS]
D C G Lonely, lonely, my heart is dark C G D the rocks lie cold beneath me C G F#/G Em Come closer, closer darling one G D G We'll marry in the seaweed
[SOLO]

[VERSE 3]
G D G On the passing ship, a sailor boy, C G he heard the sea rose calling C G F#/G Em and from the bow he dove on down G D G to the waves, the waves are falling
[REFRAIN]
Em C G The waves, the waves were falling
[VERSE 4]
G D G Come, come my darling boy C G into my arms awaiting C G F#/G Em Down, down in the cold, dark sea G D G I'm waiting here to love you
[CHORUS]
D C G To her arms, her lovely arms, C G D the currents pulled him splashing, C G F#/G Em but her body was only foaming waves G D G and her voice just water rushing
[OUTRO]
Em C G In the waves the sea rose falling Em D G In the waves, the waves, my darling Em D C G The waves, the sea rose calling
