Вступление
[Verse 1]
G
It could break your heart to watch the sun
G D G
Strike gold along this shore
C D G
Where the little boats still bump and spin
Em D
As they did long years before
G
The harbour lights burn dim tonight
G D G
They′ve closed these boats all down
C G
And the men all stand in silence
Em D
On the corners of the stand
G
And they stand and smoke by empty stores
G D G
And they watch the cars roll by
C G
They stare into the distance
Em D
With hard and angry eyes
[Chorus]
G
So it's farewell to the harbour
D G
Farewell to the fields
C G
Farewell to deep salt water
Em D
That swells beneath your keel
G
What′s gone is lost forever
D G
I pray someday we're healed
C D G
And that we'll meet again some brighter day
Em D
Next turn of the wheel
[Verse 2]
G
And the houses here look much the same
D G
Well perhaps a bit more worn
C G
And the shingles gleam like silver
Em D
As they did when we were born
G
And the scent of pine and moss and vine
Yes and rose and bayleaf too
C D G
Still spice the warm and fragrant air
Em D
as they did back in my youth
[Chorus]
G
So it's farewell to the harbour
D G
Farewell to the fields
C G
Farewell to deep salt water
Em D
That swells beneath your keel
G
What′s gone is lost forever
D G
I pray someday we're healed
C D G
And that we'll meet again some brighter day
Em D
Next turn of the wheel
[Verse 3]
G
I dipped my hand into the sea
G D G
And raised it to my mouth
C D G
And a sudden warm breeze stirred the air and
Em D
Blew up from the south
G
And the air was sweet with blossoms
G D G
And the sea was salt with tears
C D G
And the sun danced on the water
Em D
I was swept back through the years
G
I climbed the hill and I paused for breath
G D G
Yes and one last backward glance
C D G
Down by the green as emeralds hill
Em D
Where the fragile cornflowers dance
G
And I stood once more and I crossed the ridge
G D G
Of that dear familiar hill
C D G
And the beating of the waves was lost
Em D
Like a heart forever stilled.
