Row Me Home

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

The tide came crawling up the black rocks

Old Maren counted waves with a steady hand

She swore the sea still remembered our names

And every soul she ever dragged to land

Pre-Chorus

So haul away

Haul away

The salt gets under your skin

Chorus

Row me home across the grey water

Row me home before the storm

Row me home to the hall of my fathers

Where the fire keeps us warm

Post-Chorus

Hey ho

Hey ho

Pull and pull and never slow

Hey ho

Hey ho

Down below the foam we

lantern guttered on the weather-beaten mast

Maren's voice came rolling off the shoals

She said the deep don't keep what the deep don't ask

And the deep has come to claim its tolls

Pre-Chorus

So haul away

Haul away

The dark is closing in

Chorus

Row me home across the grey water

Row me home before the storm

Row me home to the hall of my fathers

Where the fire keeps us warm

Post-Chorus

Hey ho

Hey ho

Pull and pull and never slow

Hey ho

Hey ho

Down below the foam we go

Guitar Solo

Bridge 2

Raise the sail against the squall

(Raise the sail)

Every man to every oar

(Every oar)

If the sea should take us all

(Take us all)

We will row to Valhalla's door

Chorus

Row me home across the grey water

Row me home before the storm

Row me home to the hall of my fathers

Where the fire keeps us warm

Post-Chorus

Hey ho

Hey ho

Pull and pull and never slow

Hey ho

Hey ho

Down below the foam we go

Outro

The tide went out and left the black rocks bare

Old Maren counted waves and closed her eyes

She swore the sea still whispered every name

Beneath the grey and rolling skies

Hey ho

(Hey ho)

Hey ho

(Hey ho)
