Shady Lake Chords

(ver. 1)
The Handsome Family
[Intro]
F F7  | F6 F  |
C C/E | C C/E | C C/E  | C C/E  |
 
[Verse 1]
C                C/E   Em Em/B
At the shore of Shady Lake
           Am  Am/E       F   F/C
Where the wind comes to sleep
        C     C/E        Em Em/B
Trout glide beneath the lilypads
         Am   Am/E   F   F/C
And the tall orange reeds
         C          C/E        Em        Em/B
Now the horned owls call up through red leaves
     Am         Am/E  F   F7       F6   F
Who, who comes rising up from the deep?
     Am   Am/E        F      F/C
Two swans with their feathers
Am Am/E       F   F/C
Whiter than snow
           Dm  Dm/A   F    F/C
Tie their necks in a love-knot
    C C/E        G
As gently they float
C                C/E   Em Em/B
Hear the soft whispers blow
         Am   Am/E     F   F/C
In the sweet water's flow
C    C/E      Em Em/B Am Am/E      F   F/C
Who, who comes rising up from the cold?
 
[Instrumental]
C C/E Em Em/B | Am Am/E F F/C |
C C/E Em Em/B | Am Am/E F F7  | F6 F |
Am Am/E F F/C | Am Am/E F F/C |
Dm Dm/A F F/C | C  C/E  G     | G    |
 
[Verse 2]
          C   C/E     Em Em/B
See the blue turtles slip
           Am   Am/E    F   F/C
From the green, mossy shore
C      C/E            Em    Em/B
Down, down they are gliding
Am Am/E    F   F/C
Down they soar
         C      C/E   Em          Em/B
See the yellow snake coil in the leaves
     Am        Am/E        F 7     F6   F
Who, who comes rising? Who do you see?
 
[Outro]
