Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
A fantastic singer from Northern Ireland! Check him out on facebook :)
I wrote down a version with easier chords. The original version is two half-steps down so just use the
transpose-tool on the top left corner if you wanna play it like Mike Donaghy! Otherwise you'd have to
play it with a capo on the 10th fret which is a bit too high in my opinion :D
Intro: Em C D G G
G C
As the children they play in the corner
D G D
and the laughter it fills the whole street.
Em C
There's a man that stands by the boathouse
D G
with a daughter that I'd like to meet.
C D
She's got long brown hair that shines like the sun
G D Em
and a skirt that comes down past her knees.
C G
Her smile is as bright as the mornin'
D G
her eyes as blue as the sea.
C D
And I asked her her name and she turned with a smile
G D Em
and said: "Stranger I don't know you yet."
C G
I said: "There's no such thing as a stranger
D G
just friends that we haven't met."
G C
Her neck is home to her necklace
D G D
with the cross of our lord Jesus Christ.
Em C
And I asked her if she was religious
D G
she said: "I'll let you know later tonight."
C D
As she spoke of the past and the trouble she had
G D Em
I could tell that she hurt deep inside.
C G
I said: "Darling I'll take all your heartache
D G
and never will I leave your side."
Interlude: Em C D G G
G C
We walked in the rain through the forest
D G D
as the moon did its best to appear.
Em C
She said: "We should start to go home now."
D G
Then said she was happier here.
C D
Home is a place that I don't see much.
G D Em
It's a place that I'd rather forget.
C G
And it's nice to have people like you here
D G
to take my mind off my regrets.
G C
And as the sun rose I looked out my window
D G D
and the fishermans daughter was gone.
Em C
She didn't leave clues of her actions
D G
she did say she had to move on.
C D
And I'll miss you my darling and I wish you well
G D Em
and I hope that you'll find peace inside.
C G
If ever when you're feeling lonely
D G
just know that I'm right by your side.
C D
And I'll miss you my darling and I wish you well
G D Em
and I hope that you'll find peace inside.
C G
If ever when you're feeling lonely
D G
just know that I'm right by your side.
