VERSE 1

[E] In the [C/D] dead of [Gmaj7] night
The [C6] [G] chor [Cmaj7] checks the [F#m7] sway

They [G] gather [C/D] here, this [G] makeshift [C/D] pier
[E] Trading [C/D] with the [Gmaj7] tide
This [C6] fair [G] ex [Cmaj7] change pro [F#m7] vides

The [G] market [C/D] ♭sought, the [G] buyers [C/D] bought
Pa [G] trols pass [C/D] by, they [G] can but [C/D] try

[B7] No need for haste or hurry
[C] No [G] cause for the [Am7] waste or [C/D] worry

They [G] can but [C/D] try to [G] tell the [C/D] tide
They [G] can but [C/D] try to [G] tell the [C/D] tide
