Capo 3rd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
Hello Seattle I am a Mountaineer, in the hills and highlands
I fall asleep in hospital parking lots, and awake in your house,
Hello Seattle I am a manta ray, deep beneath the blue waves
I'll crawl the sandy bottom of Puget Sound and construct a summer home
Hello Seattle I am the Crescent moon, shining down, on your face
I will disguise myself as a sleeping pill, and descend inside you
Hello Seattle I am a cold seahorse, feeling warm in your sand
I sing about the tide and the ocean surf, rolling in, the evening breeze
(emphasis on the ), , , ,
Hello Seattle I am an albatross, on the docks, and your boats
I sail above your inlets and interstates, through the rain and open wind,
Hello Seattle I am an Old Lighthouse, throwing beams, of bright lights
Red in the morning Blue in the evening sun, taking heed from everyone
Hello Seattle I am a Mountaineer, in the hills, and highlands
I fall asleep in Hospital parking lots...
Take me above your light
Carry me through the night
Hold me secure in flight
Sing me to sleep tonight
Take me above your light
Carry me through the night
Hold me secure in flight
Sing me to sleep tonight
