[Chorus]
D/F# C/G Am Em
The thundering waves are calling me home, home to you
D/F# C/G Am Em
The pounding sea is calling me home, home to you
[Verse]
Bm C
On a dark New Year's night, on the west coast of Clare
Am Em
I heard your voice singing
Bm C
Your eyes danced the song, your hands played the tune
D Em
'Twas a vision before me
[Verse]
Bm C
We left the music behind and the dance carried on
Am Em
As we stole away to the seashore
Bm C
And smelt the brine, felt the wind in our hair
D
With sadness you paused
[Verse]
Em Bm
Suddenly I knew that you'd have to go
C D
Your world was not mine, your eyes told me so
Em Bm
Yet it was there I felt the crossroads of time
C D Em
And I wondered why
[Verse]
Bm C
As we cast our gaze on the tumbling sea
Am Em
A vision came o'er me
Bm C
Of thundering hooves and beating wings
D
In the clouds above
[Verse]
Em Bm
Turning to go, heard you call out my name
C D
Like a bird in a cage, spreading its wings to fly
Em Bm
"The old ways are lost," you sang as you flew
C D Em
And I wondered why
[Chorus]
D/F# C/G Am Em
The thundering waves are calling me home, home to you
D/F# C/G Am Em
The pounding sea is calling me home, home to you
[Chorus]
D/F# C/G Am Em
The thundering waves are calling me home, home to you
D/F# C/G Am Em
The pounding sea is calling me home, home to you
[Chorus]
D/F# C/G Am Em
The thundering waves are calling me home, home to you
D/F# C/G Am Em
The pounding sea is calling me home, home to you
