Dm                F                     Bb 
Mermaid sits on a side wash rock in the harbor 
             C 
Watching the children play 
    Dm         F 
And every day sun or rain 
Bb                    C 
Old Man kneels to the earth to pray 
        Dm 
For the rain and stars 
        F 
And the cars at the heart 
Bb                      C 
The dark and windy Vancouver 
  (break)            F 
A black day in December 


A                               A/G    
She sees the worst is yet to come yeah 
  F           E          Dm 
A big wave on the horizon 
F/A                       A\G 
The first wind blowing in 
     F               E                 Dm 
Left Stanley soldiers felled and broken 
            F   C 
And we went oh oh 


Dm                        F 
And Old Man kneels to the earth 
                Bb 
In his mother's garden 
              C 
Where his own father was laid 
    Dm         F   
And every day sun or rain 
Bb                  C 
Mermaid sits on her rock and she prays 
        Dm 
For the salmon in the sea 
        F 
For the winged in the trees 
        Bb 
For the Old Man on his knees 
               Dm 
Oh and for the beauty in the park 
        F 
And the cars at the heart 
       Bb 
Her own sisters and her brothers 
        C 
And ten thousand friends and lovers 
   (Break)          F    
Black day in December 
Bb C                   F  Bb 
A black day in December 


Dm                F                     Bb 
Mermaid sits on a tide wash rock in the harbor 
               C 
Where the blue heron would lay 
    Dm         F 
And every day sun or rain 
Bb                      C 
Old friends fall to the earth and decay 
         Dm 
With the city by the sea 
      F 
Sweet brine in the breeze 
         Bb 
With the mountains watching over 
       C 
Her Vancouver 


 (Break)          F   
Black day in December 
Bb                     F   
A black day in December 
C  C#                 F   
Black day in December 
Bb                     F   
A black day in December 
 C    C# Dm 
Oh oh
