Boston and St Johns
Great Big Sea
Verse 1:
D A* G
Girl don't tell me that it's morning
D A* G
Can we keep the curtains drawn?
D A* G
I haven't given you fair warning
D A* G
But our ship, she sails at dawn
Chorus:
Em D* G A*
And it's true I must be going, but I swear it won't be long
D A* G A
There isn't that much ocean between Boston and St.John's
D A* D A G
I'm a rover, and I'm bound to sail away
G A
I'm a rover, can you love me anyway?
[Repeat first two measures of Riff 1]
Verse 2:
And if some suitor comes approaching
Will you let him through your door
What if I return half-broken
Will you still want me anymore?
[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat first two measures of Riff 1]
continue to play Riff 1 throughout the Bridge
Bridge:
Close your eyes and dream
and tell me what you see
Tell me what you want
Just tell me that you'll wait for me
[Repeat Verse 1] [Repeat Chorus]
[End by playing opening Riff until fade]
