Salt and Silver

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Verse 1

Salt on my skin from the harbour light

Rope bites deep and the nets hang tight

I lean on the bow as the tide rolls slow

Moon spills silver where the lanterns glow

(Where the lanterns glow)

(Glow)

Pre-Chorus

Hands calloused from the line we pull

But every haul is a heart made full

Sing with me now till the sunrise burns

We turn

Chorus

Haul it up and let it go

Haul it up (ha ha) and let it go

The sea keeps what the sea don't show

So haul it up and let it go

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh (let it go)

Oh-oh-oh (let it go)

Verse 2

My brother's voice keeps the rhythm true

The drum of the hull and the deck sings too

We laugh at the storm and we curse the rain

Then raise the song up all over again

(Over again)

(Again)

Pre-Chorus

Grains of sand in the years we save

One more wave against the rave

Sing with me now till the eastern glow

We go

Chorus

Haul it up and let it go

Haul it up (ha ha) and let it go

The sea keeps what the sea don't show

So haul it up and let it go

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh (let it go)

Oh-oh-oh (let it go)

Bridge

The night is deep and the work is long

But every hand in this boat is strong

We carry salt and we carry gold

The stories of our fathers old

Chorus

Haul it up and let it go

Haul it up (ha ha) and let it go

The sea keeps what the sea don't show

So haul it up and let it go

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh (let it go)

Oh-oh-oh (let it go)
