Queen Of Waters by Nancy Kerr & James Fagan 




          Queen Of Waters 







[Verse 1]

C
Well away my love away,
                      G
For we're sailing home today
    C
On a boat called memory
F    C     F                        G
Hail home, hearts that long for the land

C
Oh she's like some Persian queen, 
                   G
With her opal robes serene
       C
In the lamplight shimmering
F    C     F                        G 
Hail home, hearts that long for the land


[Chorus 1]

         G
On a blue jay morning
           C
Feathering thorny memories 
F    C     F                     G
Hail home, hearts have been too long away
    G
On a well-worn byway travelling
C
Magpie gathering
F   C    G        C
Farewell queen of waters


[Verse 2]

C
Well it's hard to roll in mirth,
                              G
When your feet don't touch the earth
        C
And the wolf comes hungering 
F    C     F                        G
Hail home, hearts that long for the land

C
Folly never foots the bill 
                       G
And we all shall pay in full
        C
For the love of melody 
F    C     F                        G
Hail home, hearts that long for the land


[Chorus 2]

         G
On a blue jay morning
           C
Feathering thorny memories 
F    C     F                   G
Hail home, hearts have been too long away
    G
On a well-worn byway travelling
C
Magpie gathering
F   C    G        C
Farewell queen of waters


[Verse 3]

C
Well I should have sowed my corn,
                       G 
But I danced until the dawn
        C
Like an ant grasshoppering 
F    C     F                        G
Hail home, hearts that long for the land

C
Oh there must be better ways
                         G
For to keep the debts at bay
        C
And the whiskey trickling 
F    C     F                        G
Hail home, hearts that long for the land


[Chorus 3]

         G
On a blue jay morning
           C
Feathering thorny memories 
F    C     F                    G
Hail home, hearts have been too long away
    G
On a well-worn byway travelling
C
Magpie gathering
F   C    G        C
Farewell queen of waters


[Verse 4]

C
So we'll bid our ship adieu 
                        G
There's a mooring in the blue
          C
Where the gulls are gathering 
F    C     F                        G
Hail home, hearts that long for the land

C
Oh she's like some Persian queen, 
                           G
And her like shall ne'er be seen
     C
Only in our reverie 
F    C     F                        G
Hail home, hearts that long for the land


[Chorus 4]

         G
On a blue jay morning
           C
Feathering thorny memories 
F    C     F                    G
Hail home, hearts have been too long away
    G
On a well-worn byway travelling
C
Magpie gathering
F   C    G        C
Farewell queen of waters


[Chorus 5]

         G
On a blue jay morning
           C
Feathering thorny memories 
F    C     F                    G
Hail home, hearts have been too long away
    G
On a well-worn byway travelling
C
Magpie gathering
F   C    G        C
Farewell queen of waters
