John Tams-  How High the price chords
Start Jamming...
[Eb] How [Ebm] high the price, [Db] how deep [Ab] the water, That makes [Eb] [Bbm] widows out of wives!
For this [Ab] is not fish, [Db] Eurydice, This [Eb] is [Db] men!
[Eb] [Bb]
Oh, clouds [F] the sky, the boats [Am] are leaving,
[Bb] One last [F] goodbye, dark waters [C] calls on.
The northern [F] sea [Am] knows well the [Dm] sound of grieving,
[Bb] How [F] slight the fate
[C] we put our [F] trust upon.
Then [C] go [F] [C] we most, [Bb] no longer can we [Gm] tabby, [C] The [F] waters [C] wine, yet [Bb] we must go [C] try.
And like a [F] bird on [Am] a silvery morning, [Bb]
Home to [F] your side we [C] will just [Bb] fly.
And the water [F] shines like patent [Am] leather, [Bb] We search for [F]
signs upon [Dm] this [C] lifeless ground.
The reckoning [F] sky [Am] calls down so [Dm] heavy weather, [Bb] With call [F] for fish,
[C] fish need [F] must be found.
[C] Then go [F] we [C]
most, [Bb] no longer [Gm] can we tabby, The [C] [F] waters [C] wine, [Bb] yet we must go [C] try.
And like [F] a bird on [Am] a silvery morning, [Bb]
Home to your [F] side we will [C]
[Bb] just fly.
And we [F] write of the Lord in trusty [Am] glory, [Bb] Some plans [F] of wars, no [Dm] thicker [C] than your thumb.
It's [F] all that keeps the [Am] telling of [Dm] our story,
[Bb] From the [F] angle lost,
[C] or maybe [F] being worn.
[C] Then go [F] we [C] most, no [Bb] longer [Gm] can we tabby, The [C] [F] waters [C] wine, [Bb] yet we must go [C] try.
And like [F] a bird on [Am] a silvery morning, [Bb] Home to [F] your side we [C] will just [Bb]
fly.
All [F] clouds disguise their boats [Am] are leaving,
[Bb] One last [F] goodbye, dark [Dm] waters [C] call us on.
The northern [F] sea
[Am] knows well the [Dm] sound of grieving, [Bb] How slight [F] the fate [C] we put our [F] trust upon.
[C] Then go we most, [Bb] no longer can we [Gm] tabby, The [C] [F] waters [C] wine, [Bb] yet we must go [C] try.
And like [F] a bird on [Am] a silvery morning, [Bb]
Home to [F] your side we [C] will
[Bb] just fly.
Home to your [F] side we [C] will just [Fm] fly.
