Prince William Sound

by Atz Kilcher

(G) First time that he saw her
He (D) took her for her gold
(Em) Dusty dredges (Em7) left behind
Jagged (Am) scars and ragged (C) holes
(G) She's been slowly healing
A (D) century's come round
But (Am)how long will it (C) take
For the Prince William (G) Sound He came for the yellow gold
He came for the black
He used her he abused her
Each time she took him back
Each time she forgave him
Each time she lost ground
But forgivin' won't come easy
For the Prince William Sound He came back with money
He was a smooth talkin' man
He wined her and he dined her and he said
I've got a plan
I'll make us both wealthy
With that black gold in your veins
But now she's the one who's paying
For the price of her pain

 

Chorus

He'll come back to the Arctic
He'll come back to Bristol Bay
And when he comes a-calling tell me
What will she say
Will she close her eyes again
Or will she turn him down
Tell me what have we learned
From the Prince William Sound
