THE BALLAD OF ST. ANNE'S REEL
4/4
[Verse 1]
G C G
He was stranded in some tiny town on fair Prince Edward Island,
G D7
Waiting for a ship to come and find him
C D G C
A one-horse place, a friendly face, some coffee and a tiny trace
G D7 G
Of fiddling in the distance far behind him.
[Verse 2]
G C G
A dime across the counter, then, a shy hello, a brand new friend.
G D
A walk along the street in the wintry weather.
C D G C
A yellow light, an open door, a welcome friend, there's room for more,
G D7 G
Soon they're standing there inside together.
G D C G
He_said_I've heard that tune before somewhere, but_I can't remember when.
G D C Em
Was it on some other friendly shore, did I hear it on the wind?
G D C G
Was it written on the sky above? I_think_I heard it from someone I love,
C G D7 G
But_I_never heard it sound so sweet since then
[Verse 3]
G C G
Now his feet begin to tap, a young boy says I'll take your hat.
G D7
He's caught up in the magic of her smile.
C D G C
And leap, the heart inside him went, and off across the floor he sent
G D7 G
His clumsy body graceful as a child.
G D C G
He_said_there's magic in the fiddler's arm, there's magic in this town.
G D C Em
There's magic in the dancers' feet and_the way they put them down.
G D C G
Smiling people everywhere, boots and ribbons_and locks of hair,
C G D7 G
Laught'r_and old blue suits and Easter gowns.
[Verse 4]
G C G
Now the sailor's gone, the room is bare, the old piano's sitting there,
G D7
Someone's hat left hanging on the rack.
C D G C
Some empty chairs, the wooden floor that feels the touch of shoes no more,
G D7 G
Waiting for the dancers to come back.
G D C G
And the fiddle's in the closet of some daughter of the town.
G D C Em
The strings are broke and the bow is gone and the case is buttoned down.
G D C G
But often on December nights, when the air is cold and the wind is right,
G C G D7 G
There's a melody comes passing through this town.
