Verse:
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/p/patrick_park/silver_girl_tab.html )
The [C]Howling wind it [F]comes
[C]Knocking at her [F]door
You know I [C]want[Cmaj9] her h[F]ere
But it [F]wants her [C]more
She's a [C]sad eyed silver [F]skinner
With [C]worn and broken [F]decks
And you can [C]hear[Cmaj9] her m[F]oan
As the [F]main sail [C]sets.
Chorus:
She says, [Am]Hang [G]on [F]Silver [Am]Girl
[C]It's going to be alr[F]ight[C].[F]
Verse 2
Alright I'll throw you over
Comes the ocean's pounding roar
All she ever wanted
Was someone to adore
Now the wind it swings around again
And she turns the boat to stern
Sometimes you have to sink
Before you learn.
Verse 3
Now the paralyzing cold
Tells her, this is it.
But she can't go down
On a sinking ship.
But now the wind is out of breathe
And the northern gales subside.
She gets her first sleep in days
Under starry skies.
