                             Song To The Siren - John Frusciante
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------




Tuning: Standard



Bb          F         
Long afloat on shipless oceans
Eb           Gm
I did all my best to smile
Bb                F
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
Eb             Gm
Drew me loving to your isle

Bb            Ab          Gm                   Bb
And you sang "Sail to me, sail to me, let me unfold you"
Gm         Gm         F          Eb   Gm               
Here I am, here I am, waiting to hold you


Bb          F
Did I dream you dreamed about me
Eb                 Gm
Were you hare when I was fox
Bb             F
Now my foolish boat is leaning 
Eb              Gm
Broken lovelorn on your rocks,

Bb             Ab            Gm                        Bb
For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow
Gm            Gm       F              Eb  Gm               
O my heart, O my heart shies from the sorrow" 


Bb           F
I am puzzled as the newborn child
Eb            Gm
I am troubled at the tide
Bb            F
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Eb                Gm
Should I lie with Death my bride?

Bb             Ab          Gm                   Bb
Hear me sing, "Swim to me, Swim to me, Let me enfold you
Gm         Gm         F          Eb   Gm            
Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"
