VERSE 1
F C
I'm just a man but I know that I'm damned
Dm C
All the dead seem to know where I am
F C
Till it began on the night of my birth
Dm Am
Will be done in a turn of the earth
F C
Lie where I land let my bones turn to sand
Dm C
I was born on the lake and I don't want to leave it
F C
Every eye on the coast ever more
Dm Am
Will remember the sight of the ghost on the shore
(INTRO)
VERSE 2
Under the waves and the earth of an age
Lie a thousand old northerner's graves
Deep in the night when the moon's glowing bright

They come rising up into the light
Die if I must let my bones turn to dust
I'm the Lord of the lake and I don't want to leave it
All who sail off the coast ever more
Will remember the tale of the ghost on the shore
BRIDGE

VERSE 3
Lie where I land let my bones turn to sand
I was born on the lake and I don't want to leave it
Every eye on the coast ever more
Will remember the sight of the ghost on the shore

All who sail off the coast ever more
Will remember the tale of the ghost on the shore
