Eamonns Leviathan Tab

by Portland


From the new album "These Broken Hands"


Capo 1

                                           
In the deep blue circling waters of the oceans of the world
                                    
There's a legend, many stories, many myths
                                       
From days gone by of old mans talks and dreams cast from the shore
     
That rolls home on the morning mist


                                 
Leviathan's your brother and your sister to the stars,
       
Like a part of creation, 
         
Like the beating of your heart
                                       
Well like time has no beginning, like a friendship has no end
                                         
Like the soul and the spirit of lev- ia -than


Same chords as v1:

To the sands that make the shore line, like the clouds that ride the sky
To the winds of time that shift and change
There's a question I'm not sure of and an answer I never heard,
The reason lying somewhere unexplained

Why you spend most your days fleeing from the blowing sails,
Never tiring, never leaving you alone
Why they kill you for no reason, with their spears and their harpoons,
Get drunk on your death and then turn home

Same chords as c1:

Leviathan's your brother and your sister to the stars,
Like a part of creation, 
Like the beating of your heart
Well like time has no beginning, like a friendship has no end
Like the soul and the spirit of leviathan

Verse 4:

One day we'll know how much it will take,
To stop all this killing before it's too late
And the seas will return to wash the sands clean
But your soul and your spirit be forever set free 

Chorus:

Leviathan's your brother and your sister to the stars,
Like a part of creation, 
Like the beating of your heart
Well like time has no beginning, like a friendship has no end
Like the soul and the spirit of leviathan
