Shores of White Sand - Emmylou Harris

I'm 99.99999999% sure that this is right, I've played it with the video and it 
sounds perfect. I like to add a few little embellishments, such as hammer-ons, and 
pulloffs here and there. :D

Capo 3

  G
  here i go again
               C    G
  back to that feeling
                Em     D
  of no worthy cause
              G
  to carry me on
 

  
                         G
'cause my hearts been skipping
                   C   G
like a flat rock on water
              Em    D
and with each ripple
                G
the further i'm gone

 

G           Em  D  C
some say i'm sinking
       D        G
to the muddy bottom
                Em D C
But somehow i'm sailing
    D              G
to shores of white sand



*instrumental*
*hum tune of verses here while playing the chords for verses*


            G
i feel it raining
                        C    G
and the crosswinds are changing
             Em   D
blowing my chances
            G
to make it alone
 

                     G
but should you get lonesome
                      C    G
and your child need a mother
                  Em     D
just look for my traces
                    G
on shores of white sand
 
G            Em  D  C
some say i'm sinking
          D       G
to the muddy bottom
                Em  D  C
But somehow i'm sailing
     D              G
to shores of white sand

But somehow i'm sailing
to shores of white sand
