Hornsea by Oorlab published on 2021-04-28T21:26:49Z https://youtu.be/x_ObOaS1R4c The chords came about while improvising on my Hagstrom HJ800 guitar. The lyrics were inspired by watching watching a VPRO TV series of three Belgian travellers (Arnout Hauben, Philippe Niclaes, Ruben Callens ) walking around the North Sea. https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rond_de_Noordzee All comments welcome, on the lyrics, instrumentation, mix Hornsea Em Bm F#m Let’s go round the North sea Am G C To see how far we can go B A D Through fog and rain on windswept cliffs D E Wherever the storm wind blows. Chorus Em Came upon the Hornsea Where the coast was sinking fast The future of the living here Is written in the past Navigate the sand dunes beware of tidal floods Keep your compass ready when passing through the mud, Like a tumble weed on a prairie Or driftwood on the sea Walk on the coastal trails In the land without trees Beyond our own shores There’s a water world we don’t know From shallows to trenches To watch the blue wave glow. Chorus Came upon the Hornsea Dolphins showed me the way Sailing out of the harbour as the night turned to day.
