Mountain Man - Fish Chords

C                                  Am
It was the dark of dawn as we went there
                                     C
There was chill of bone and brisk of air
        Am
And the pale glow of the sun
                           C
Pulled us, in all speed, to come

C                                  Am
From the boat we heard that lonely call
                               C
That carries wide and silences all
        Am
There I sat with oar in hand
                             C
As half of me fell away into sand

C               Am
Then freely and stealthily
  C
A great green moving muscle sleek
     Am
Took hold the line and dove deep
C
Down

      Em
And I pulled
    C
And what I saw I'd never seen
     Am                Em
What came to light the glowing green
C        Am        C
Heaving, breathing light
   Am             C
I looked into its eye

C                        Am
And suddenly as quick it came
   C                       Am
A flash, a gleam, a hungry dream
    Em                  Am
The line went slack and we turned back
        Em                     C
To the shelter of the darkened pines
