Bm                     A                             G                    Em 
 The thundering waves are calling me home, home to you 
Bm                  A                        G                   Em 
 The pounding sea is calling me home, home to you 

Bm                            A 
 On a dark new year's night 
                                 G 
 By the west coast of Clare 
                      A 
 I heard your voice singing 
Bm                              A 
 Your eyes danced the song 
                                   G 
 Your hands played the tune 
                         A 
 T'was a vision before me. 

Bm                          A                                      G 
 We left the music behind and the dance carried on 
                    A 
 As we stole away to the seashore 
Bm                   A                                  G 
 We smelt the brine, felt the wind in our hair 
                                    A 
 And with sadness you paused. 

                  Bm                              A 
 Suddenly I knew that you'd have to go 
                              G                                A 
 My world was not yours, your eyes told me so 
                 Bm                                      A 
 Yet it was there I felt the crossroads of time 
                          G - A - Bm 
 And I wondered why. 

Bm                     A                            G 
 As we cast our gaze on the tumbling sea 
                       A 
 A vision came o'er me 
Bm                     A                          G 
 Of thundering hooves and beating wings 
                  A 
 In clouds above. 

                         Bm                               A 
 As you turned to go I heard you call my name, 
                         G                                     A 
 Like a bird in a cage spreading its wings to fly 
                            Bm                              A 
 "The old ways are lost", you sang as you flew 
                           G - A - Bm 
 And I wondered why. 

Bm                     A                             G                    Em 
 The thundering waves are calling me home, home to you 
Bm                  A                        G                   Em 
 The pounding sea is calling me home, home to you 

Bm                     A                             G                    Em 
 The thundering waves are calling me home, home to you 
Bm                  A                        G                   Em 
 The pounding sea is calling me home, home to you
