Sandy Fishnets

Cm              Ab
Sandy, (sandy), fishnets, (fishnets)
G                Ab
Washed up on the shore,
Cm                        Ab
What's she, (what's she), catching, 
(catching)?
G               Ab
And will she be sore?

[Verse]
G             Ab           Cm
Sandy was the prettiest of all,
G
She talked French,
    Ab              Cm
She came from Montreal.
G                 Ab           Cm
During chores she never had to help,
G           Ab            Cm
Sandy got a bed all to herself.
G               Ab             
We slept in the trailer to the 
Cm
right,
G             Ab              Cm
Sandy told us stories late at night.
    G                  Ab
She spoke of ships and sailors,
      G              Cm
And a sea so big and wide,
G               Ab
She had lots of uncles and was
G  Ab   G
Al-ways tired.

[Chorus]
Cm              Ab

G                Ab
Washed up on the shore,
Cm                        Ab
What's she, (what's she), catching, 
(catching)?
G               Ab
And will she be sore?

[Verse]
G                  Ab             
How they loved her in those early 
Cm
days,
G           Ab          Cm
Mrs. Bolger let her go away,
G              Ab               
All her uncles drove her off to 
Cm
play,
G                 Ab             
We would see them kissing on the 
Cm
lake.
G                Ab               
Time went by and Sandy's all grown
 Cm
 up,
    G               Ab            
The lines of uncles dwindled and 
   Cm             G
the pirate stories stopped,
G              Ab               Cm
Then one day Melissa May showed up,
    G            Ab               
And Sandy had to share a bed with 
Cm
us.

[Chorus]
Cm              Ab
Sandy, (sandy), fishnets, (fishnets)
G                Ab
Washed up on the shore,
Cm                        Ab
What's she, (what's she), catching, 
(catching)?
G
And will she be

[Bridge]
Ab      Cm
Soaring over the sea?
         G                       
With the wind in her sails and a 
Ab
knife in her teeth,
       Cm                    Ab   
At the helm of a ship on its way 
            Eb       G
to a distant shore.
   Cm                    Ab
Bermuda and Thailand, an uncharted 
island,
Eb                      Ab    Fm
Sandy we're all getting older,
Cm
What will they do with us
Ab
When they are through with us?
Eb     G                   Cm
Sandy, what are we sailing for?

[Verse]
G                  Ab Cm
Christmas morning, 1993,
G                Ab             
Presents waiting underneath the 
Cm
tree,
G                 Ab             
There's a box for me, (a box for 
Cm
me),
   G                 Ab          
No gift for poor old Sandy to be 
Cm
seen.
G              Ab           Cm
We found Sandy sobbing quietly,
G            Ab         
Uncle Gerald said he liked 
        Cm
Christine,
G           Ab                 
Mrs. Bolger said she'd have to 
Cm
leave,
G                Ab
Three days later she was gone,
    C               Cm
The day she turned 13.
