Fingerpicking it is the best option in my opinion
but strumming works as well :-)

(written by Abbie Gardner & Jonathan Byrd)

[Verse 1]

C G F C

and like a fisherman bring him back in

When I was older I sang to the wind

If I were a siren I´d call him ashore

F C G C

and on the rocks I´d be lonely no more

[Chorus]

Oh my Michael - oh my love

Won’t you sing me a song of the sea

A true lover´s knot on your finger so fair

and there´d be no space between your heart and mine
