F                          C 
I'm a fishing girl, just a lonely girl 
            F               C 
The town in which I live is breaking water 
          F                  C 
I told my mother, my violent brother 
         F                       G 
All they give to me is reason to leave 

F  C 

        F                      C 
Imagine my surprise, a pair of ancient eyes 
           F              C 
Set into a face as old as land 
             Dm                       Am 
He stands in front of me, he came out of the sea 
           F                           G 
He says it hurts his skin to touch the sand 

               F                        C 
He crawls back into the sea, the air is salty and sweet 
           F                C 
A backward glance by way of invitation 
       Dm                             Am 
I'm in now up to my knees, the air is salty and sweet 
              F                    C G 
I'll leave my dress by way of explanation 

F C F C 

       F                                     C 
My man don't care for clothes, the things he does not own 
           F                           C 
They never trouble him, never give him grief 
              Dm                       Am 
cause he's as soft as silk, as pure as baby milk 
           F                     G 
And harder than earth that he so scorns 


               F                        C 
He crawls back into the sea, the air is salty and sweet 
           F                C 
A backward glance by way of invitation 
       Dm                             Am 
I'm in now up to my knees, the air is salty and sweet 
              F                    C G 
I'll leave my dress by way of explanation
