(A minor) (G major) (C major) (F major) (C major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (C major) (F major) (C major) (G major)
(C major) When
Verse 1
the wind (G major) is high,
the white (F major) caps curl
(C major) The (F major) waters run (C major) the well and (D minor) hardly swirl
(G major) The (C major) skipper (G major) says, (F major) I love this world
(C major) It's the (F major) only one we'll see (G major)
If your (C major) luck is (G major) in, you (F major) can see the fish
(C major) Though (F major) they swim as deep (C major)
as (D minor) your deepest wish
(G major) The (A minor) sound of his (G major) voice (F major) was feverish
(C major) And he (F major) gave the wheel (E minor) to me (C major)
Who (A minor) writes (G major) the story? (C major)
I don't (F major) know anymore
(C major) And maybe nothing's (F major) what it seem (G major) s
Spare (A minor) me (G major) the glory, (C major)
just to (F major) get me safe on shore
(C major) And I'll only (F major) put to sea (G major) in my dreams (A minor)
(G major) (C major) (F major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (C major) (F major) (C major)
The sky grew (G major) dark and it blew (F major) a squall
(C major) We saw (F major) the weather (C major) glass (D minor) fall an (G major) d fall
Then a (C major) wave (G major) rolls up like a moun (F major) tain wall
(C major) We stand (F major) above the sea (G major)
(F major) With (G major) a mark (C major) each (G major) boat
and a stack (A minor) of dead
(C major) May (F major) be more (C major) than (D minor) you think and where
(G major) He looked, (A minor) shrugged (G major) and
he (F major) couldn't en (C major) d
He (F major) said his (E minor) fortun (D minor) e for (C major) years
Who (A minor) writes (G major) the story? (C major)
I don't (F major) know anymore (C major)
And maybe nothing's (F major) what it seems (G major)
Spare (A minor) (G major) me the glory, (C major)
just get (F major) me safe on shore
(C major) I'll (F major) only put to sea (G major) in my dreams (A minor) (G major)
(C major) (F major) (C major) (F major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (C major) (F major)
(C major) (F major) (G major)
The skip (C major) per yelled,
(G major) we (C major) can haul (F major) an (C major) d bail
We can (F major) fight like hell, (C major) but we (F major) always (C major) fail
To the beast with the
(G major) green glit (A minor) tering scales
(C major) Rolling (F major) loose below
The wind (C major) came (G major) on and we couldn't (F major) hide
(C major) We (F major) spun half round (E minor) and began (F major) to slide
(G major) Baby, (A minor) that's when the (G major) skipper
went over (F major) the side (C major)
We (F major) never saw (E minor) him go (C major)
Love, (A minor) (G major) are you call (C major) ing? I
don't (F major) know anymore
(C major) And maybe nothing's (F major) what it (A minor) seem (G major) s
Out (A minor) (G major) of the story, (C major)
just bring (F major) me safe to (C major) shore
And I'll only (F major) put to sea (G major)
Who (A minor) writes (G major) the story? (C major)
I don't (F major) know anymore
(C major) And maybe nothing's (F major) what it seems (G major)
Spare (A minor) me (G major) the glory, (C major)
just get (F major) me safe on shore
(C major) And I'll (F major) only put to sea (G major) in my dream (A minor) s (G major)
(C major) (F major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (C major) (F major) (C major) (G major) (C major)
The ships all rang with a single crash
We (F major) shot to the (C major) top like a (F major) trumpet blast
(C major) Then the seagull come (G major) as a (C major) looking
-glass I (F major) hid my face (C major) and cried (A minor)
