FIRST VERSE
Am C
Lumberjack's looking out for trees
Am C
choppin' days out of centuries
Am C
But you get them on their knees
F G F
Cause they ain't so tough I heard things about 'em
Am C
The dark sea is a careless host
Am C
From northpole to pacific coast
Am C
Pure blood is the viking's toast
F G F
But his heart will cry if it goes without it
Am C Am C
And the sirens always sing
Am C F G
The chants from heaven
F
Not expecting to be heard
Am C Am C
But the love that it won't bring
Am C F
Will make hearts sever
G F
Of those who go
SECOND VERSE
Am C
The sweet call of the distant shore
Am C
They don't know what they're wishing for
Am C
If they knock on the devil's door
F G F
They better make sure they got something to say
Am C
Everybody has a life to fill
Am C
They hate waiting and they can't sit still
Am C
And what is time but something to kill
F G F
Until it's nothing left and the night has the last laugh
Am C
They all know when it comes to you
Am C
The lucky ride only takes a few
Am C
why have a soul when it's yours to lose
F G F
you gotta pick your fight you got work to do
Am C
Some say that they're running away
Am C
From what or where now they wouldn't say
Am C
In their minds they're never late
F G F
Cause there ain't no-one that is waiting for them
Am C Am C
And the sirens always sing
Am C F G
The chants from heaven
F
Not expecting to be heard
Am C Am C
But the love that it won't bring
Am C F
Will make hearts sever
G F
Of those who go

THIRD VERSE
Am C
Pale riders in a lonely nest
Am C
I bet the spanish have a word for this
Am C
And a banner that they can't resist
F G F
But they're not so tough I heard things about them
Am C
Some say that they're running away
Am C
From what or where now they wouldn't say
E
On a road trip you cannot stray
E7
But you can get lost trying to find your way home
Am C Am C
A virtue and a sin
Am C F G
The sails will shiver
F
The promises will burn
Am C Am C
And underneath the skin
Am C F
The heart will quiver
G F
of those who roam
Am C Am C
And the sirens all will sing
Am C F G
The chants from heaven
F
Not expecting to be heard
Am C Am C
But the love that it won't bring
Am C F
Will make hearts sever

Of those who go
