Dear wind that shakes the barley free,
Am G G/F# EmBlow home my true love's ship to me, fill her sails.
Am GI a-weary wait upon the shore.
Am G
Forsake her not in times of storm,
protect her oaken beams from harm, fill her sails.
Am GI a-weary wait upon the shore.
Am G
Whether he be in Africa
Am G G/F# EmOr deep asleep in India, fill his dreams,
I a-weary wait upon the shore.
Dear snow white gulls upon the wing,
Am G G/F# EmI, like you, are lamenting, for my love.
Am GI a-weary wait upon the shore.
Am G
And in my chariot of sleep,
I ride the vast and dreamy deep, deep sea.
Am GI awake a-weary on the shore.
Am G
For seven years and seven days,
Am G G/F# Emno man has seen my woman's ways, dear God.
I a-weary cry upon the shore.
Along the shingle beach I go,
Am G G/F# Emthe wind about me as I make my way,
Am Gto my weary dream upon my bed.
Am G
Dear wind that shakes the barley free,
Blow home my true love's ship to me, fill her sails.
Am GI a-weary wait upon the shore.
Am GI a-weary wait upon the shore
