Done in standard. If you want to do it truly as Voltaire does, just use the transpose
tool :)
For the A7 and Dm at the end of each line of the verse, just quickly strum each one of
them once. Listen to the song for the rhythm. I recommend fingerpicking everything
besides the A7 Dm I mentioned earlier and the chorus.
T was the worst of times for tinkers like you and me.
So in search of fortune I took to the sea.
Round my neck, a key you said was to your heart.
Held it desperately as your ship left the dock
I can t forget, I won t forgive this sea
For the endless hurt it gave to me.
I want to stab, I want to kill this sea.
Took you away, took you away from me.
Silks from Singapore, a treasure from tripoli for you.
And from Silver Bay, Iâve scars for souvenirs.
Love, your son was born. I wish you could see.
Eyes the same as yours and cries just like me.
I can t forget, I won t forgive this sea
For the endless hurt it gave to me.
I want to stab, I want to kill this sea.
Took you away, took you away from me.
(that is the solo, hum the chorus on top of it)
Years have passed. How many, I don t know anymore.

Lost adrift at sea, a storm comes. It s getting cold.
I stand on the shores, searching a sea of blue
And forever more, I ll wait here for you.
