[Intro]
C   G   C   F

C   G   C

[Verse]
          C  
Spend my days 
in a 
haze, floating \'
 F           
round in the 
    C
Marais
Nights under 
the bright
 lights at
 Mignon on 
         G
Beaumarchais
 C      
Rouge wave gets me 
mumbling, then 
 F          
tumbling it 
      C
takes me
Bouncing and 
rolling 
like a cork 
             G
lost out at sea
 F       
Endless nights 
that haunt and 
        C
taunt eternal 
seemingly
How the sirens
  G
 come to me
But they\'re not 
 F  
real, just 
temptation in 
     C
the deep

[Chorus]
 F      
They all sing 
along to a 
 C
luring song of
 prey
Melody washes over 
but can\'t 
make out a word 
      G
they say
 F     
Tied my mooring 
line 
to wine, but it 
 C
snapped back from 
the fray
So I row against 
the undertow 
 G                 
drifting, my 
anchor
   C
 away

[Verse]
   C       
A drunken sailor
 lost
 and lonely in a 
 F             C
sad and magic 
swamp
Saint Michel
 protecting
 me 
from everything 
   G
I want
     C  
But darkness 
falls like 
thunder and 
 F              
that old dragon 
 C
wins
Running \'round in
 circles, 
trying to reach 
     G
the end
 F  
Trying to break
 the
 cycle of 
 C            
solitude and s
 F
in
 C             
Here come those
  G   
 siren
     C
s again

[Chorus]
 F   
They all sing
 along 
to a 
 C
luring song of
 prey
Melody washes

Tied my mooring 
line 
to wine, but it 
 C
snapped back from

So I row against 
the undertow

drifting, my

[Bridge]
          F    
Pull the wax out 
of my
 ears, tie me 
C
to the mast 
headlong
My heart\'s free
 of 
fear, so let 
me hear that 
siren 
 G
song
 F       
Play it loud and
 sing 
it proud and
  C              
 make it last so 
 F
long
            C 
\'Cause the night 
goes on 
    G      C
and on, forever

[Chorus]

They all sing
 along to a

luring song of
 prey
Melody washes 
over

say

Tied my mooring 
line 
to wine, but it 
 C
snapped back from 
the fray
So I row against

drifting, my
 anchor
