Ropes and Rigging

Intro

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Chorus

Salt on the siding

Wind on the waves

Ropes and the rigging are holding us down

Pulling the prize through the harbor today

Back to the hill where the houses are gray

Back to the hill where the houses are gray

Verse 1

Buckets are banging

Frozen fingers find a grip

Red sky warns the morning

Lashing the wood with a wintery whip

Pre-Chorus

Iron and ice

Bitter and bright

Shouting it out to the sun

Chorus

Salt on the siding

Wind on the waves

Ropes and the rigging are holding us down

Pulling the prize through the harbor today

Back to the hill where the houses are gray

Back to the hill where the houses are gray

Verse 2

Staggering home

Boots clicking on the cobblestone

Waiting for winter

Praying to find a way back home

Pre-Chorus

Iron and ice

Bitter and bright

Shouting it out to the sun

Chorus

Salt on the siding

Wind on the waves

Ropes and the rigging are holding us down

Pulling the prize through the harbor today

Back to the hill where the houses are gray

Back to the hill where the houses are gray

Post-Chorus

Houses are gray

The houses are gray

Pulling it back through the foam today
