Gordon Lightfoot - Shellfish

Even if you're ^Csure before ^Gyou begin to ^Amcry Never ^C7rest until you ^Ffind what is ^Cbest to be for^Emgot Let it ^Ffloat off in the ^Dmnight be^Gneath the moon So ^Cbrightly shining ^Emdown on the ^C7steeples of the ^Ftown

You ^Gmust not be downhearted over ^Cthings you left undone You got ^Amfaith, to ^Emtell you all is ^Amwell And you ^Emknow you'd best not ^Fstop ^Am There's still a ways to ^Cgo ^Am

Even if you're ^Csure, before ^Gyou begin to ^Amsigh Let me ^C7show my way is ^Fbest, on the ^Cwayward side to^Emnight Let a ^Fplanet be your ^Dmguide a^Gbove the fields Be^Cside the sleeping ^Emtown, when the ^C7work is all shut ^Fdown

You ^Gwill not be outsmarted by that ^Csong you left unsung You got ^Amfaith, to ^Emmake your world take ^Amflight There is ^Emstill a ways to ^Fgo ^Am 'Bout a thousand miles or ^Cso ^Am

Even if you're ^Csure before ^Gyou begin to ^Amsmile Let it ^C7happen on its ^Fown, like the ^Cshellfish in the ^Emsea I'm as ^Fselfish as can ^Dmbe, when ^Git comes down to ^Cme And all of my ^Emkin, all they ^C7want to do is ^Fwin

You ^Gwill not be deserted by old ^Cfriends you left alone You got ^Amfaith to ^Emmake you meet the ^Amcost And you ^Emknow you'd best not ^Fwait ^Am He who hesitates is ^Clost ^Am So even if you're ^Csure

It's so ^Geasy to be shellfish ^G7in the ^Csea
