[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
E
The night was black, rain fallin' down
B7 E
Looked for my baby, she's nowhere around
E
Traced her footsteps down to the shore
B7 E
‘Fraid she's gone forever more
[Chorus]
A
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
E B7 E
I took your baby from you away
A
I heard a voice cryin' in the deep
E N.C. E
Come join me, baby, in my endless sleep
[Verse 2]
E
Why did we quarrel, why did we fight?
B7 E
Why did I leave her alone tonight?
E
That's why her footsteps ran into the sea
B7 E
That's why my baby has gone from me
[Chorus]
A
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
E B7 E
I took your baby from you away
A
I heard a voice cryin' in the deep
E N.C. E
Come join me, baby, in my endless sleep
[Verse 3]
E
Ran in the water, heart full of fear
B7 E
There in the breakers I saw her near
E
Reached for my darlin', held her to me
B7 E
Stole her away from the angry sea
[Chorus]
A
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
E B7 E
You took your baby from me away
A B7
My heart cried out “she's mine to keep"
E N.C.
I saved my baby from an endless sleep
[Outro]
E7
I saved my baby from an endless sleep
E7
