[A] [D] [G] [Dm] [G]
[Em] [A]
[Bm] [G]
[Bm] [A]
Born the only daughter of [Em] a [Dm] farmer [G] I could never work [Dm] that rocky [A] plain
So I found myself a husband I [G] could fend for I kept the tale of the winter [A] as my name
I did what he asked and I came when he [G] called I never really loved that man at [Em] all
Helped him raise his sons and [A] work his mill But I came to live my life on Monday [D] morning
[G]
Climbing through a lighthouse [A] on a hill I [Em]
[A]
delivered flour to [Dm] the keeper
[Em]
Kept the light above [A] the Hooper Strait On Mondays at the wet end of [D] the walkway
[Em] The keeper's daughter [A] Georgia held a gaze She never said a word, she took me by the hand
It didn't take long [Em] for me to understand I finally found [D] what I was [A] looking for
The keeper kept his eye on the [Em] North Atlantic You know he never saw the [D] trouble [A] on [Em] shore
[A] I fell for the lighthouse [G] daughter Before I put my foot in the [Em] water
I didn't know my [A] poor heart for I fell for the lighthouse [G] daughter
Praise to the waves, the waves brought [Em] her These same waves that [D] washed me from [A] my shore
[G] [Em]
[A]
Oh, I remember Georgia [D] in the lamp [Em] room Polishing the storm [A] pains in a dress
Throwing her three brothers to [G] the schoolhouse I spent that summer trying to love [A] her less
Men are at the mill and his wife's not [G] home Didn't take long for his thoughts to roll
[Em] Letting the [A] lighthouse at her gate When he tore me from the arms of [Em] Georgia Norwood
And he threw me off the cliffs [A] of Hooper [E] Strait
[A] I fell for the lighthouse daughter [G] Before I put my foot in the water
[Em] I didn't know my poor heart [A] for I fell for the lighthouse daughter
[G] Praise to the waves, the waves brought [Em] her These same waves that washed [A] me from my shore
[G]
[A]
[G]
[A]
It used to be a bonfire [G] on a hillside
[Em] Before my father's people [A] built the tower
Before [Dm] Command and Orwood [G] lit the lantern [Em] Before my Georgia [D] baked [A] the miller's flower
Oh, the ocean looked so peaceful [G] from lighthouse You can hardly [Em] see the shoals [A] beneath the swell
You can only hear the roar of [G] the North Atlantic You know you'll never hear a tale [A] I have to tell
[Em]
[A] I fell for the lighthouse [G] daughter Before I put my foot in the water
I didn't know my [A] poor heart for I fell for the lighthouse [G] daughter
Praise to the waves, the waves brought [Em] her These same waves that washed me [A] from my shore
I fell for the lighthouse [G] daughter Before I put my foot in the water
I didn't know my poor [A] heart for I fell for the lighthouse [G] daughter
Praise to the waves, the waves brought her These same waves that washed [A] me from my shore
