At The Harbour

Am D Out at daybreak to the sun C D Seas are drifting glass Am D The tides were turning to the storm C D Winds were moving fast F G Women waiting at the harbour C E Silent stand around F G Weather storms another day C E For men the sea has found Fisherman were laying nets The barrels spread the bait The seagulls warning echoed round Winds that wouldn't wait People gathered at the harbour Waiting for the tide Eyes half closed against the spray And tears they cannot hide Am Dm Shadows falling at the harbour G C Women stant around Am Dm Weather storms another way G Em Am D C D For man the sea had drowned Hulls were creaking crashing sails Rains were slanting down The oilskins flapping, decks awash Slanting turning round Thunder roaring at the harbour Women drawn in fear Huddle up to wait the time And pray the sky well clear Howling winds and the raging waves Cracked upon the boats And torn from safety, torn from life Men with little hope Ghostly echoes at the harbour Whispering of death Women weeping holding hands Of those they still have left Shadows falling at the harbour Women stant around Weather storms another way For man the sea had drowned Transcribed by Ofir Zwebner.
