Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Old Pagoda Anchorage (C. Fox Smith)

Am---C--------------------------------F-----------------C
By the old Pagoda Anchorage they lay full fifteen strong,
-------F-------------------C------------------Am-----------------C
Their spars were like a forest, and their names were like a song –
F------------------C
Fiery Cross and Falcon there,
F---------------------C
Lay with Spindrift, doomed and fair,
F------------------C
Belted Will and Hallowe'en,
-----------Am----------------C
With Le-ander there were seen –
----F---------------C----------------F--------------------------C
Sir Lancelot of a hundred famous fights with wind and wave:
------F-------------C-----------Am--------------C
And Ariel and Ti-tania and Robin Hood the brave –
-------F----------C-------------------F--------------------C
Thya-tira of the lovely name, and proud Thermopy-lae,
--------F-------------C--------------------Am------------------C
By the old Pagoda Anchorage, when clippers sailed the sea,
--------F--------------------Am
