Shellfish

[INTRO:] Am  C  G  Am  C7  F  Am

[VERSE 1:]
               C           G            Am
Even if you're sure before you begin to cry
      C7             F            C             Em
Never rest until you find what is best to be forgot
       F                Dm      G
Let it float off in the night beneath the moon
   C                Em          C7              F
So brightly shining down on the steeples of the town


[CHORUS:]
    G                            C
You must not be downhearted over things you left undone
        Am        Em              Am
You got faith, to tell you all is well
        Em                  F     Am
And you know you'd best not stop
                        C   Am
There's still a ways to go


[VERSE 2:]
               C            G            Am
Even if you're sure, before you begin to sigh
       C7             F            C              Em
Let me show my way is best, on the wayward side tonight
      F              Dm     G
Let a planet be your guide above the fields
  C                 Em             C7               F
Beside the sleeping town, when the work is all shut down


[CHORUS:]
    G                              C
You will not be outsmarted by that song you left unsung
        Am        Em                   Am
You got faith, to make your world take flight
         Em              F    Am
There is still a ways to go
                          C   Am
'Bout a thousand miles or so


[VERSE 3:]
               C           G            Am
Even if you're sure before you begin to smile
       C7            F             C                Em
Let it happen on its own, like the shellfish in the sea
       F              Dm       G                C
I'm as selfish as can be, when it comes down to me
              Em            C7            F
And all of my kin, all they want to do is win


[CHORUS:]
    G                           C
You will not be deserted by old friends you left alone
        Am       Em                Am
You got faith to make you meet the cost
        Em                  F     Am
And you know you'd best not wait
                    C     Am
He who hesitates is lost
                  C
So even if you're sure


[INSTRUMENTAL:] G  Am  C7  F  C  Em  F


[OUTRO:]
        G                    G7     C
It's so easy to be shellfish in the sea
