Lost In The Harbour
Tom Waits
[Verse 1] Over here the ladies all want sweet per- -fume But there’s never a rose And over there the roses are frightened to bloom So they never can grow [Chorus 1] And over here they need wool for weaving their baby’s new clothes But nobody has any wool And the sheep are all lost in the harbour Lost in the Harbour [Break] BbAug [Verse 2] And over here they want diamonds to wear but there aren’t any here And over there everyone’s hiding their tears but they’re crying inside [Chorus 2] And the wall won’t come down Til they’re no longer afraid of themselves If you don’t believe me ask yourselves And I can come down to the harbour down to the harbour [Break] BbAug [Chorus 3] And then I will fill the ocean back up with my tears I still have a couple more years and then I can come back to the harbour down to the harbour
