Does Your Harbor Light Still Shine
I recall someone once saying that this was the best song that you cannot dance to because
the offbeats and the beat changes through out the song… Here are the chord, I’m not
gonna try and place the chords because its impossible to do… Just listen to the song for timing, its
pretty easy once you get the strum down…
intro
Dm G C (2x)
Dm G C (3x) G
I’m drifting out at sea, Captain Misery
Will I make it through the night?
I see no land in sight
Dm G C (4x)
G Dm G
The water tastes like salt,
These clouds are not my fault
and the lighthouse fades to grey
but I’m nowhere near the bay
give me one more day
all I do is wait
Dm G (2x)
Dm G C Am
You gotta find me in this ocean
of people on the shore
Tell me all the answers
What are you looking for?
Tell me my dear brother, why do you feel unkind?
Tell me little sister, does your harbor light still shine?
Dm G C (3x) G
I’m floating out at sea
no one here but me
and I made it through the night
but I see no end in sight
Dm G C (4x)
Dm G F Dm
The rain it smells like fish
give me one more wish
Mr. Lighthouse fades to grey
but I’m nowhere near the day
I stop looking for the bay
All I do is pray
give me one more day
Dm G (2x)
Dm G C Am
You gotta find me in this ocean
of people on the shore
Tell me all the answers
What are you looking for?
Tell me my dear brother, why do you feel unkind?
Tell me little sister, does your harbor light still shine?
F Fm C
Does your harbor light still shiiiiiiiiine? (2x)
Over whistling: F Fm C Am F G C
