Meat Loaf - Sailor to a Siren
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: Em D
Em D Em C
Long distance calling, in the middle of a rainy night
Am Em D Em
So much static, hardly knew your voice
D
And you've been crying, want me to love you like I did before
C G D Em
Oh, when it comes to you, you know I've got no choice
Am
You put a storm inside me
D Em C
I wanna head for a safer harbour
G
They all tell me I should give you up
D C
But no man could'a tried any harder
Am
Feels like an odyssey
B Em
That's never gonna reach an end
Am
Every time I hear you calling me
B
Just wanna feel you in my arms again
CHORUS:
Em C
Like a sailor to a siren
D Em
Like a moth to a flame
C G
I know your love might be the death of me
Am B
But I run to you just the same
Em C
Like a sailor to a siren
D A
Nothing's gonna keep us apart
C Em
Crashing over the wreckage
B Em
Of all the sailor's broken hearts
Em D Em
Must'a met you, when we were living in another time
C Am Em D Em
Had nothing but the jealous gods to point our way
D
When men were sailors, and a woman was a rocky shore
C G D Em
Wailing like a siren, leading him astray
Am
I've got another woman
D Em C
And I know you've got another man
G
They all tell me I should give you up
D C
But I don't think that any mortal can
Am
Feels like an odyssey
B Em
That's never gonna reach an end
Am
Every time I hear you calling to me
B
Just wanna feel you in my arms again
CHORUS:
Em C
Like a sailor to a siren
D Em
Like a moth to a flame
C G
I know your love might be the death of me
Am B
But I run to you just the same
Em C
Like a sailor to a siren
D A
Nothing's gonna keep us apart
C Em
Crashing over the wreckage
B Em D G
Of all the sailor's broken hearts
BRIDGE:
Gonna abandon ship, steal you from the cliff
Em D
Take you to a place where the gods can't find us no more
Am G D Em
Let the sailors listen to the sirens if they dare
A D
Gonna be dancing on the water, drowning in your yellow hair
Lead Break: Em C Em C Em A Em D Em C D Em A B
CHORUS: (## 2x - fade to end ##)
Em C
Like a sailor to a siren
D Em
Like a moth to a flame
C G
I know your love might be the death of me
Am B
But I run to you just the same
Em C
Like a sailor to a siren
D A
Nothing's gonna keep us apart
C Em
Crashing over the wreckage
B Em
Of all the sailor's broken hearts
