D  D-  A  E   ...   D  D-  A  E
E
It's Maine and it's Autumn
                            F#m  B
The Birches have just begun turning
E
It's life and it's dying
                            F#m   B
The lobsterman's boats come returning
         C#m                       A
With the catch of the day in their holds
        E                    F#m    B
And the young boys cold and complaining
A
The fog meets the beaches
And out on the Reach it is raining.  D  D-  A  E   ...   D  D-  A  E

E
It's father and son
                                      F#m  B
It's the way it's been done since the old days
E
It's hauling by hand ten miles out from the land
             F#m   B
Where their chow waits
        C#m                      A
And the days are all lonley and long
         E                        F#m    B
And the seas grow so stormy and strong, but...
E
The Reach will sing welcome
as homeward they hurry along
--
CHORUS:
        E
        And the morning will blow away
                                A
        As the waves crash and fall
                             E
        And The Reach like a siren sings
                           F#m  A
        As she beckons and calls
                            E
        As the coastline recedes from view
                               A
        And the seas swell and grow
                             E
        I will take from The Reach
                           F#m  A
        All the she has to teach
                B            E
        To the depths of my soul
--
E
The wind brings a chill
                                   F#m  B
There's a frost on the sill in the morning
E
It creeps through the door
                              F#m  B
And out on the shore, ice is forming
         C#m                       A
Soon the Northers will bluster and blow
        E                            F#m  B
And the woods will be whitened with snowfall
        E
And The Reach will lie frozen
For the lost and unchosen to row.

Note:  D-  I don't know the name of this chord, but it's just a D with
           your finger off the E string.
