Song To The Siren by John Frusciante
CAPO ON THE THIRD FRET
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
G           D
Long afloat on shipless oceans
C            Em
I did all my best to smile
G                D
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
C              Em
Drew me loving to your isle
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
G             F           Em                    G
And you sang, Sail to me, Sail to me, Let me enfold you
Em                    D          C    Em
Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
G           D
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
C                  Em
Were you hare when I was fox
G              D
Now my foolish boat is leaning
C               Em
Broken lovelorn on your rocks,
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
G             F              Em                      G
For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow
Em                    D               C  Em
O my heart, O my heart shies from the sorrow"
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
G             D
I'm as puzzled as the newborn child
C               Em
I'm as troubled as the tide
G             D
Should I stand amid the breakers?
C                 Em
Should I lie with Death my bride?
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
G            F           Em                      G
Hear me sing, "Swim to me, Swim to me, Let me enfold you
Em                    D          C    Em
Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"

Good effort, but I think it sounds better without the capo to get the low F (D with the capo).

Love it, thank you!

I think in the chorus part "and you sang, sail to me..." it should be: G F C G Em D C Em
