THE END OF MY PIRATE DAYS (Mary Chapin Carpenter) ------------------------------------------------- [I _think_ these are the chords Mary Chapin uses. She might use a non-standard tuning, which would mean these are wrong. But I think these sound pretty good. Feedback is appreciated.] [Actually in G; capo 3.] [=022100; Asus9=x02200; =x24400; =x46600.] Asus9 Asus9 [intro] Asus9 Asus9 The night is soft and silent, new moon at my door There's nothing near as quiet as the light I'm looking for Asus9 Asus9 And last time that it appeared he was lying next to me Last time I felt this near to whispered ecstacy Asus9 - And those who need adventure, they can sail the seven seas Asus9 And those who search for treasure, they must live on grander dreams Asus9 Asus9 We rose and fell just like the tides, he filled my heart and soul and I Asus9 Asus9 Buried all my dreams for someone else to find in my pirate days Asus9 - Asus9 [instrumental] Asus9 Asus9 This world is kinder to the kind that won't look back Asus9 - They are the chosen few, among us now, unbowed somehow Asus9 Asus9 And one day he turned to me, and before I took one breath - /D# I knew I would only see his shadow in what light was left Asus9 - And those who need adventure, they can sail the seven seas Asus9 And those who search for treasure, they must live on grander dreams Asus9 Asus9 And if I've seen his face since then, it's only been in dreams my friend Asus9 Asus9 Since I came to the end of my pirate days Asus9 Asus9 And if I've called his name since then, it's only been in dreams my friend Asus9 Asus9 So I came to the end of my pirate days Asus9 Asus9 Asus9 Asus9 [instrumental; repeat and fade]
