Cape Spear

Written by Ron Hynes

	  		Intro: C  Em  F    ~ Dm  G  C  G  C 

                Em             F          ~ Dm 
Me and Margaret grew up on the Southside 
              G              Em   D A Dm 
Our house was two doors down 
                    G          F              Em 
Across the bay, the city lay a stone's throw away 
                  Dm                   G 
Though we weren't wanted over there in town 


         C                   Em             F        ~  
When the summer turned, we'd hike the dusty highway 
       Dm                  G                    Em   D A 
Out to where the sun would split the rocks, I swear 
Dm             G            F     Em 
Stand with our backs to the ocean spray 
        Dm                            G 
Playing dangerous games of courage or dare

C Em Cape Spear, Cape Spear F Em Dm G These would be moments we would savour C Em Cape Spear, at Cape Spear F Em Dm G F Em Dm G C Time is but a face upon the wa-wa-wa-water

Em F Dm Standing here, I still recall the morning G Em D A Dm We awoke, Margaret was gone G F Em Dm She hadn't run away, she wasn't taken by a wave, no, no, no G C It's not that kind of song Em F ~ There's enough of sad stories passed on down Dm G Em D A Where old men weep and fishers' widows wail Dm G F Em But Margaret and her maiden aunt only went to town Dm G Tides turn, the world turns 'round
tabchorus
C Em Cape Spear, at Cape Spear F Em Dm G Still I ply the dusty highway, year on year C Em Out to Cape Spear, out to Cape Spear F Em Dm Time is but a face upon the water F Em Dm G F Em Dm G F C Dm G C Time is but a face upon the wa-wa-wa-water

Em F ~ Dm These eyes hardly recognize the Southside G Em D A Dm Margaret's house is gone, so is mine G F Em From where I'd watch the city glow, there's a seafood bistro Dm G And Margaret's house is a school of hair design C Em F ~ Dm I say let the winds rush, let the waves wash away G Em D A One's bound to get ya one fine day Dm G Em For we are all only dreaming, I swear Dm G Playing dangerous games of courage or dare
tabchorus
C Em Playing at Cape Spear, at Cape Spear F Em Dm G These would be moments we would savour C Em Cape Spear, Cape Spear F Em Dm G We plied the dusty highway year on year F Em Out to Cape Spear, to Cape Spear F Em Dm G Time is but a face upon the water F Em Dm G F Em Dm G F C Dm G C Time is but a face upon the wa-wa-wa-water
