Sea For The Shore

	  		Intro: G   D   Em   C-D-  (4x)  

    G             D/F#             Em            C 
The lights of the freighters, they danced on the water 
        G             D/F#         Em           C 
As they tugged at the anchors that held them at bay 
    G           D/F#        Em        C 
And lost in her arms, boys, I too was dancing 
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D- 
I traded the sea for the shore 
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D-G 
I traded the sea for the shore

    G              D/F#            Em             C 
The light from the moon turned the wet streets to silver 
      G              D/F#        Em            C 
As we walked hand in hand up the road from the bay 
    G           D/F#           Em          C 
And me glancing backwards from where I had come, boys 
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D- 
I traded the sea for the shore 
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D- 
I traded the sea for the shore 


    G               D/F#             Em      C 
The lights from the streetlamps cast haloes upon us 
      G             D/F#           Em          C 
As we leaned by the railing at the foot of her stairs 
  G                 D/F#         Em            C 
I touched her cheek lightly, the skies now are clearing 
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D- 
I traded the sea for the shore 
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D-G 
I traded the sea for the shore

    G              D/F#         Em                C 
The light from the sun, well it shone through the curtains 
            G           D/F#                 Em          C 
Touched the edge of her shoulder, caught the glow in her eyes 
    G           D/F#               Em            C 
The horn of the freighter called, "Home, wayward sailors" 
      G          D/F#        Em    C-D- 
But I traded the sea for the shore 
  G          D/F#        Em    C-D- 
I traded the sea for the shore 
  G          D/F#        Em
