Blow High Blow Low by Karliene
Blow High Blow Low
Key: Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm
I'd often watch the pelicans fly
G
Effortless in their peaceful glide
A
Ugly on land
D Bm
But beauti-ful in flight
Bm
And I'd dream of journeying far away
G
Away from the shackles of women today
A
Away from my Fathers' shame
Bm
And my Mother's grave
G
I saw my escape in a sailor called Jim
Bm
Naive to believe if I married him
A
I'd be free to live
Bm
However I like
[Pre-Chorus]
G
But every night he would drink
Bm
Rage and use his fists
F#m
I'd close my eyes and see
A
The pelicans fly
[Chorus]
Bm
Blow high, blow low
G
I've been a ship with no sails to go
A
And I'vе been hauling an anchor
Bm
Bound to the deep below
Bm
Blow high, blow low
G
I had a dream of a ship my own
A
Onе day I'd haul up the anchor
Bm
And head for the great unknown
[Instrumental]
G Bm A Bm
G Bm F#m A Bm
[Verse 2]
B Bm
A woman in the eighteenth century
G Bm
Is an anchored ship looking out to sea
A
No soul
A Bm
She's a vessel for all his needs
Bm
And there I was moored to the shore
Waiting on him and his drunken war
A
Firing on me till I'd wreck
Bm
On the ocean floor
G
But I steadied myself inside
Bm
Held together by bits of twine
A
I stashed my dreams
Bm
Out of sight
[Pre-Chorus]
G
But every night he would drink
Bm
Rage and use his fists
F#m
I'd close my eyes and see
A
The pelicans fly
[Instrumental]
G Bm A Bm
[Chorus]
Bm
Blow high, blow low
G
I've been a ship with no sails to go

And I'vе been hauling an anchor
Bm
Bound to the deep below
Bm
Blow high, blow low
G
I had a dream of a ship my own
A
Onе day I'd haul up the anchor
Bm
And head for the great unknown
