“Beware,” I heard him cry.
His words carried upon the ocean breeze,
Ebm
As he sank beneath the tide.
Ebm
Those blood-soaked shores of Kalimdor,
Ebm
Where sailors fought and died.
Ebm Ebm
The Admiral fell at Theramore,
Db Ebm
because she left his side.
Db Ebm
Why this? Why this oh Daughter of the Sea?
Db Ebm
Why this? Did you forget your seaside days?
Db Ebm
Always the pride of our nation’s eyes,
Ebm Db Ebm
How could she go astray?
Ebm
When she did flee across the ocean deep,
Db Ebm
the Admiral followed west.
Ebm
What else but sail to save a daughter’s life,
Db Ebm
and pray she still drew breath?
Ebm
But there he found upon those distant shores,
Db Ebm
Enemies ‘pon the rise!
Ebm Db Ebm
But when he faced those savage foes
Db Ebm
His daughter stood aside.
Ebm Db Ebm
And buried deep beneath the waves,
Db Ebm
Betrayed by family.
Db Ebm
To his nation, with his last breath,
B Db Ebm
cried, “Beware the Daughter of the Sea.”
B Bbm Abm Bb Abm Ebm
Ebm
“I heard, I heard, across a moonlit sea,
Ebm
The old voice warning me,
Ebm
“Beware, beware the Daughter of the Sea”,
Db Eb
“Beware, beware…” …of me.”
