Nantucket Sound Chords by Cindy Kallet

[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ When we [Eb] reach _ Nantucket [F] _ Sound, brave _ boys,
_ [Bb] We'll haul the [F] sails down, haul them [C] in the pool [F]
awhile.
[Bb] One of [F] these days I'll have [C] much [F] more to say
Than the [Bb] harbors [F] empty and the [C] winds blowing [F] _ wild. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ When we sight the chill-marked downs, brave ones,
_ _ [Bb] We'll watch for the ice [F] break on the [C] fish in the [F] great ponds.
[Bb] One of [F] these days these lands will be wild,
When we're all gone to ashes [C] and the wars [F] all are done. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ When we roam Kataima _ _ _ Plains, brave boys,
_ _ _ [Bb] The sky will be night and the stars will [F] hang low.
[Bb] I'll sing of [F] the wars and I'll [C] sing of their dead.
_ [F]
Wondering what the ways are [C] to ever [F] have a man. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ When we round Cape _ Hog Light, brave _ _ ones,
_ [Bb] We'll header for [F] home, find a [C] place [F] by the fire.
[Bb] When the _ snow's blowing [F] round, [Bb] I'll be [C] walking [F] these roads, _
Thinking that [Bb] without [F] you there's no warm place to lie. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ When we _ [Eb] reach _ [F] Nantucket [Bb] Sound, [F] brave boys,
_ _ [Bb] We'll gather our [F] strengths, it's sometimes [C] hard to [F] get by.
[Bb] One of these days I'll have [C] much less to say
When the _
[Bb] harbor's empty and the tears have run dry. _ _ _ _ _
