Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]In the [G]south of England
there's a big [C]pile of rubble
which once upon a [G]time
was a world -famous
Eddystone [C]lighthouse.
It was built way back in,
it [G]was built an[C]d then this strong wind came out
and they [G]rebuilt it
and then this fell a lint on it.
[C]Anyway, there's a,
there's a song about this,
it's a very exciting song,
it starts off with this rather quaint
and curious [G]introduction.[C]
My father was the keeper
of the eddy stone light
And he [D]slept with the [G]mermaid
one [C]fine night
From this union there sprang three
A [D]porpoise and a [G]kipper
and the [C]other was me
[D]The [G]wind blows free
[D]Oh for a life [G]on the [C]rolling [F]sea
[C]Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop,
boop, [G]boop, boop.
[C]Boop.
One night, as I was a trimming of the glim,
a [D]singing of the [G]verse
of the [C]evening hymn, Tyffiliwk.
I hear as on the starboard a shout,
[D]ahoy.[C]
An[D]d there is me [G]mother
sit[C]ting on the [D]buoy.
The [G]wind blows free.
[D]Hope for a [G]life on [C]the rolling [F]sea[C].
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, [G]boop.
[C]Boop.
Now, what has become
of my children [G]three?
[C]My mot[D]her then ups[G] and asks of [C]me.
Well, let me see now.
[G]Well, the[C] first was exhibited
as a talking freak,
and [D]the other one I [G]ate for
[C]lunch last [D]week.
The [G]wind blows free,
[D]hope for a life [G]on the [C]rolling [F]sea[C].[G][C]
Now tell me, mother,
before you're gone,
where [D]did we [G]children three [C]come from?
Well, I've looked [G]at a mermaid
and as [C]far as I can see,
well, we [G]must have [D]been [G]born
on a [C]gooseberry tree.
[D]Ah, ha, ha, the [G]wind blows free,
over [D]a l[G]ife on the r[F]olling sea.
[C]Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boo[D]p,
boop, boop, [G]boop, boop.[C]
Now the phosphorus gleamed
in her seaweed hair,
an[D]d I looked [G]again, and me [C]mother wasn't there,
but her voice echoed delicately through the night.
You can go [D]and ask the [G]keeper
of the Yeti stone [C]light.
[D]Ha, ha, ha, the [G]wind blows free.
[D]Hope for a [G]life on the
[C]rolling [F]sea[C].
