Morecombe Bay CAPO 3
Am Out beyond the street lamps, where the Em calliopes roar
Am Past the wrack and samphire, Em beyond the shore
I've C seen them walking through the tide, as the Dsus2 rain cuts through the spray
Am Chinese cockle pickers on the Em sands of Morecambe E bay
Am I stood beside them in the corner shop, and Em in the market too
Am I should have spoken to them, told them Em everything we knew
C Like our mothers told us, as Dsus2 we went out to play
Am Never try to race the tide, on the Em sands of Morecambe E Bay
For the C tide, it is the devil, it will G run you out of breath
F Race you to the seashore, G chase you to your E death
The C tides the very devil, and the G devil has its day
On the F lonely cockle G banks of Morecambe Am bay
Am Saw them sending money orders home, Em their hard earned pay
Am Tales of crossing borders, on the Em road to Morecambe bay
C Sleeping in crowded rooms, on Dsus2 cold hard floors
Am Such dreamless life, is Em not worth dying E for
Am And now we see them in the distance, laid out Em in the morning light
Am Migrant workers, twenty Em three were drowned last night
C Their final phone calls, halfway Dsus2 round the world crossed
As Am between two river estuaries, they Em raced the tide and E lost
For the C tide, it is the devil, it will G run you out of breath
F Race you to the seashore, G chase you to your E death
The C tides the very devil, and the G devil has its day
On the F lonely cockle G banks of Morecambe Am bay
In C Fugian and Xelang, they G mourn their next of kin
F Gang masters, with snake tattoos, calling G money loans back E in
C Broken hearted parents, watch their G children stole away
To die F upon the cockle G banks of Morecambe Am bay
The Am tides the very devil, and the Em devil has its day
On the F lonely cockle G banks of Morecambe Am bay
