Sunshine stealing stage time

From the moon and stars above

I  said take me home

Verse:
Dm    F             Dm  C
Skiff rocked like a cradle
        Dm             C   A#
And the poor girl fell overboard
Dm   F
Rope wrapped around her neck

Tangled in her hair soaked wet

They dragged the stream

The body never to be found

All but given up for dead (ahh Madeline, breathe)

Ooh, Madeline (Madeline, breathe) Madeline, breathe!

Bridge:

The dirt in the stream
E
The body never to be found
E                    G
Except for footprints caked
       E                            F
In the muddy ground beside where she lay

Beneath the waterlily sky

I  said take me home
