Lirik dan Kunci Gitar Liam Clancy - The Dutchman

    C
The Dutchman's not the kind of man
to keep his thumb jammed in the dam
     Dm                   G
That holds his dreams in,
                              C
But that's a secret that only Margaret knows.
C
When Amsterdam is golden,
                               Dm
Margaret brings him breakfast,
                    G
She believes him.   
G                          C
He thinks the tulips bloom beneath the snow.
            Dm             G             C         C G C Am
He's mad as he can be, but Margaret only sees that sometimes,

          Dm                  G               C       
Sometimes she sees her unborn children in his eyes.

       Dm        G            C      G  Am
Let us go to the banks of the ocean
          Dm         G                C    G  Am
Where the walls rise above the Zuider Zee.
     Dm     G            C          G  Am
Long ago, I used to be a young man
         Dm       G                   C   
And dear Margaret remembers that from me.

C
The Dutchman still wears wooden shoes,
His cap and coat are patched with the love
     Dm
That Margaret sewed there.
G                                 C
Sometimes he thinks he's still in Rotterdam.
   C
He watches the tug-boats down canals  
                                        Dm                   G
An' calls out to them when he thinks he knows the Captain.
                                C
Till Margaret comes To take him home again
        Dm                       G                    C              G  Am
Through unforgiving streets that trip him, though she holds his arm,
             Dm          G                      C
Sometimes he thinks he's alone and he calls her name.

       Dm        G            C      G  Am
Let us go to the banks of the ocean
          Dm         G                C    G  Am
Where the walls rise above the Zuider Zee.
     Dm     G            C          G  Am
Long ago, I used to be a young man
         Dm       G                   C   
And dear Margaret remembers that from me.

        C
Ohh the windmills swirl the winter wind
She winds his muffler tighter
         Dm
they sit in the kitchen.
G                            C
And a tea with whiskey keeps away the dew.
He sees her for a moment, calls her name,
                             Dm                  G
She makes the bed up singing some old love song,
                                 C
She learned it when the tune was very new
          Dm                G                   C      G  Am
He hums a line or two, they hum together in the night.
             Dm               G                  C
The Dutchman falls asleep and Margaret blows the candle out.


       Dm        G            C      G  Am
Let us go to the banks of the ocean
          Dm         G                C    G  Am
Where the walls rise above the Zuider Zee.
     Dm     G            C          G  Am
Long ago, I used to be a young man
         Dm       G                   C   
And dear Margaret remembers that from me.

       Dm        G            C      G  Am
Let us go to the banks of the ocean
          Dm         G                C    G  Am
Where the walls rise above the Zuider Zee.
     Dm     G            C          G  Am
Long ago, I used to be a young man
         Dm       G                   C   
And dear Margaret remembers that from me.
