The Trader (Carl Wilson/Jack Rieley)
Album: Holland
Part 1:
Verse:
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]F#m7[/ch
Trader sailed a jeweled crown humanity rowed the way
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch]. [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Exploring to command more land, scheming how to rule the waves.
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Trader spied a virgin plain and named it for velvet robes
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G/F#[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]Em[/ch] [ch]F#m[/ch
Wrote home declaring there's a place where totally folks are free
ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]A/C#[/ch] [ch]G/D[/ch
Nourishment fills the prairies and the hillsides
ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]A/C#[/ch] [ch]G/D[/ch
And animals stalk the mountains and the seaside
ch]D/A[/ch] [ch]A/C#[/ch] [ch]G/D[/ch]. [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And fish abound the lakes and birds the skies, signed sincerely.
Verse:
Trader found the jeweled land was occupied before he came
By humans of a second look who couldn't even write their names shame
Trader said they're not as good as folks who wear velvet robes
Wrote home again and asked, "Please help, their breasts I see; they're not like me
Chorus:
Banish them from our prairies and our hillsides
Clear them from our mountains and our seaside
I want them off our lakes so please reply, signed sincerely.
Verse:
Trader he got the crown okay, cleared humanity from his way
He civilized all he saw making changes every single day, say
Chorus:
Shops sprang over the prairies and the hillsides
Then roads cut through the mountains to the seaside
The other kind fled to hide, by and by, and so sincerely
ch]G[/ch
cried.
Part 2:
ch]G/D[/ch] [ch]F/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Making it softly, like the evening sea, trying to be
ch]C/A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Making it go.
ch]C/A[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]F/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Creating it gently, like a morning breeze, a life of ease
ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/A[/ch] [ch]D/E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Eyes that see beyond tomorrow, through to the time without hours
ch]D/E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Passing the Eden of Flowers, reason to live.
ch]G/D[/ch] [ch]F/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Embracing together, like the merging streams, crying dreams
ch]C/A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Making it full
ch]C/A[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]F/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]F/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Begging intently, for a slight reprieve, a night of ease
ch]G/B[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/A[/ch] [ch]D/E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D/E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Hands to touch beyond the sorrow, on to the force without power
ch]D/E[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/A[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Piercing the crust of the tower, reason to live.
/ /
Hoping, like a budding rose, humbling shows
Making it
Struggling lonely, like a desert field, break the seal, make it real
Ears to hear, beyond the showers, on to the suns of tomorrows
Burning the flesh of all sorrows,
ch]D/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
reason to live
ch]D/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Reason to continue
ch]D/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Reason to go on
ch]D/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Reason to live
ch]D/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Reason to live
ch]D/C[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Reason to live
