What a beaut of a song, awesome on a ukulele. From the "Empty Buildings" EP Please rate and comment with corrections if you find any :} x contact: www.spoonboycomics.co.uk a. === D A I've no fond farewell for you G D I've got the shitty beach town blues D A You caught me getting in the cab G D A I waved and then I turned my back G Bm Down by the wreckage of the pier D A Saw your darkness and I found my greatest fear G Bm The Mighty Whale and Abraham D A The wretched fish that one day crawled out of the sea D To be a man I paddled back to my homeland And it's a dump it's a tin can And I'm a cautionary tale He sucked my blood, left me iron-poor and pale A skeleton of years gone by Led by the moon and by memory of the fire We are the band, the band plays on We're making music while the ship goes swiftly down {whistle} Down by the wreckage of the pier Saw your darkness and I found my greatest fear The Mighty Whale and Abraham The wretched fish that one day crawled out of the sea To be a man Goodbye ocean Goodbye England I hope tomorrow treats you well It's not your fault It's probably me but I'm getting out if I still can
