Аккорды Gordon Lightfoot - Ode To Big Blue

[Verse 1]

    Am            C              G           Am
The oceans of the world were the home of big blue
   C                Cmaj7           Em7/A
He was the greatest monster that the world ever knew
        Am                  C            G             Am
And the place that he loved best was the waters to the west
  C               G            Am
Around the blue Pacific he did roam

[Verse 2]

    Am           C         G               Am
Big Blue moved alone for a mighty blue was he
        C              Cmaj7         Em7/A
And the battles of the whales was an awesome sight to see
       Am               C          G               Am
And he took them one by one and he drove them all away
       C             G              Am
In the mating of the day he was the king

[Verse 3]

    Am             C            G           Am
Big blue had fifty wives and he sired forty sons
       C                 Cmaj7         Em7/A
Though most of them fell victim to the cruel harpoon guns
       Am              C           G                      Am
Ah but he was too much wise to get caught by the gunners' eyes
    C              G             Am
And so he lived at sea a hundred years

[Verse 4]

    Am           C          G              Am
His mouth was as large as a tunnel so they say
    C                 Cmaj7           Em7/A
His hide was thick as leather and his eyes quick and small
        Am           C              G             Am
And his back was all scarred by the times he got away
       C                 G               Am
And he knew the smell of whalers did Big Blue

[Verse 5]

    Am           C          G         Am
Big Blue passed away to his natural decay
   C              Cmaj7        Em7/A
Beside the Arctic Circle as he travelled up that way
          Am          C           G                    Am
And there never was a man who was born with a gunner's hand
    C           G          Am
Who ever took a pan to Big Blue

[Verse 6]

        Am             C           G               Am
Now the gray whale has run and the sperm is almost done
    C                Cmaj7                 Em7/A
The finbacks and the Greenland rights have all passed and gone
             Am           C           G                Am
They've been taken by the men for the money they could spend
        C             G                  Am
And the killing never ends, it just goes on

[Verse 7]

    Am            C              G           Am
The oceans of the earth were the home of big blue
   C                Cmaj7            Em7/A
He was the greatest monster that the world ever knew
        Am                  C            G             Am
And the place that he loved best was the waters to the west
  C               G            Am
Around the blue Pacific he did roam
