What Does The Deep Sea Say

F   C  G   C

[Verse 1]
    C            G      C   C7    F                  C
She stood on the beach alone  and gazed at the misty blue
C7       F                    C                                  G       C
Saying, "Sea, as you hold him to your breast, does he mention my name to you?"
    C           G      C   C7 F                  C   C7
Oh, where is my sailor boy?   Where is my sailor boy?
    F                          C                               G       C
He sleeps at the bottom of the deep blue sea and he can't come back to me.


[Chorus]
    C             G        C                  G        C
Oh, what does the deep sea say? What does the deep sea say?
   C         G          F               C
It moans, it groans, it splashes and it foams,
       C            G     C
And it rolls on its weary way

[Verse 2]
   C              G         C  C7       F                C  C7
Oh please tell me deep blue sea   is he sleeping peacefully
        F                        C                                  G        C
For the winds from the north are blowing icy cold. Can you keep him warm for me?
   C       G        C   C7      F                   C   C7
If only my grieving soul   some token of love could find
   F                    C                                           G       C
If only the waves could show me where he sleeps then I'd leave this world behind.

[Chorus]
    C             G        C                  G        C
Oh, what does the deep sea say? What does the deep sea say?
   C         G          F               C
It moans, it groans, it splashes and it foams,
       C            G     C
And it rolls on its weary way.

[Verse 3]
  C         G        C  C7   F                       C     C7
A beautiful rose one day   I placed on the crest of a wave
           F                  C                            G      C
And I said take it please and let it settle home above his watery grave.
    C              G          C    C7       F                     C      C7
The driftwood I've watched in vain,  and my rose never came back again
   F                  C                                G         C
So waves take another message to my love tell him I'll meet him above.

Oh, what does the deep sea say? What does the deep sea say?
   C         G          F               C
It guards and keeps my lover where he sleeps
N.C.                           C
And it rolls on its weary way.
