[Ab] [Fm]
[Bb] [Eb]
The Dutchman's not the kind of man to keep his thumb jammed in the dam [Fm] that holds his dreams in
But [Bb] that's a secret [Eb] only Margaret knows
When Amsterdam is golden in the morning Margaret brings him [Fm] breakfast
She believes him
[Bb] He thinks the tulips bloom [Eb] beneath the snow
He's mad [Fm] as he can be [Bb] but Margaret only [Eb] sees that [Cm] sometimes
Sometimes [Fm] she sees her [Bb] unborn children [Ab] in his eyes
[Eb] Let [Fm] us go to the banks [Gm] of the ocean
Where [Fm] the walls [Bb] rise above the cider [Eb] sea
[Cm] Long [Fm] ago [Bb] I used to be [Eb] a young [Cm] man
And [Fm] dear Margaret [Bb] remembers that [Eb] for me
The [Fm]
[Bb] [Eb]
Dutchman still wears wooden shoes
His cabin coat of passion's love [Fm] that Margaret sewed in
[A] [Bb] Sometimes he thinks he's still [Eb] in Rotterdam
He watches tugboats down canals
He calls out to them Vicky [Fm] Vicks
He knows the canyons
[Bb] Till Margaret comes to take [Eb] him home again
Through [Fm] unforgiving streets [Bb] that grip him though [Eb] she holds his arm
[Cm] Sometimes [Fm] he thinks that [Bb] he's alone and [Ab] calls her [Eb] name
Let [Fm] us go to the banks [Gm] of the ocean
Where [Fm] the walls [Bb] rise above the [Eb] cider sea
[Cm] [Fm] Long ago [Bb] I used to be [Eb] a young [Cm] man
And [Fm] dear Margaret [Bb] remembers that [Eb] for me
The [Fm]
[Bb] [Eb]
[Fm]
[Bb] [Eb]
windmills whirl in the winter wind
She winds his mottler tight with him
[Fm] They sit in the kitchen
[Bb] Some tea and whiskey he [Eb] keeps away
He sees her for a moment
Calls her name, she makes the bed up
[Fm] Humming some old love song
[Bb] She learned it when the tune [Eb] was very new
He [Fm] hums a line or [Bb] two, they hum [Eb] together in the [Cm] night
The [Fm] Dutchman falls [Bb] asleep
And Margaret [Ab] blows the candle [Eb] out
[Fm] Let us go to the banks [Gm] of the ocean
[Fm] Where the walls [Bb] rise above the [Eb] cider sea
[Cm] [Fm] Long ago [Bb] I used to be [Eb] a young [Cm] man
