The Lure of the Sea Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]If I [Am]walk like a fool,
I've [D]walked [G]like that since [C]school[Am]
[D]But maybe [G]it's the lure of
[C]the sea[Am][Dm][G]
Who knows the [Am]effect,
That [D]whisky [G]could've had on [C]me[Am]
It [D]could've been [G]the lure
of the sea
[C]

[Verse 2]
'Cause [F]leather ain't as
strong [Ab]as the weather
But [C]leather can strangle any dream
And [F]leather ain't as strong [Ab]as the weather
But [C]leather took Curtis from [G]me

[Verse 3]
[F]Maybe it's the lure of the [Am]sea,
[F]Maybe it's the lure of the [Am]sea
Sui[Ab]cide's just the anarchist that
[C]kicks down modesty
[Ab]But maybe it's [G]the lure of [C]the sea
[Am][D][G][C][Am]
[Dm][G]

[Verse 4]
[C]Once I [Am]felt chained, and [Dm]now,
now [G]I feel [C]free[Am]
[Dm]Maybe it's [G]the lure of
[C]the sea[Am][Dm][G]
[Am]Polo and Da Gama,
Well [D]those two [G]had nothing on [C]me[Am]
[D]Could be I'm a suck[G]er
for the sea
[C]

[Verse 5]
'Cause sil[F]ver,
ain't as quick [Ab]as the tongue
[C]But silver, took the M.L.K so young
And [F]metal ain't as strong
[Ab]as the petal
[C]But metal left the verse un[G]sung

[Verse 6]
[F]Maybe it's the lure of the [Am]sea,
[F]Maybe it's the lure of the [Am]sea
Sui[Ab]cide's just the anarchist that kick
[C]s down modesty
[Ab]But maybe it's [G]the lure of
the sea
[C][D]

[Verse 7]
[G][Em]
[C]Freedom's [D]taken a lik[G]ing to me[Em]
[C]Maybe [D]it's the lure of [G]the sea[Em]
[Am]Look [D]in my eyes 'cause my
[G]belt's broke [Em]free
[C]Maybe it's [D]the lure of [G]the sea[Em]
The Pir[C]ates [D]Of Penzance,
They have [G]nothing [Em]on me
[C]Maybe [D]it's the lure of [G]the sea[Em]

[Verse 8]
[F]Maybe it's the lure of the [Am]sea,
[F]maybe it's the lure of the [Am]sea
Suicide's [D]just the anarchist that
[G]kicks down [Em]modesty
[C]But maybe it's [D]the lure of the sea
