[Intro]
G G D7 G
[Verse 1]
G
Sailin' home across the ocean
D7 G
Sailin' home, we're goin' to be free.
G
Down below the crew's in motion
D7 G
To defy the violence of the sea.
D7 C
Feelin' young, feelin' strong,
C
At the hight of the fight,
G
So nothing can go wrong.
D7 G
We know we'll always wanna be fighting the sea.
[Verse 2]
G
Giant waves are rollin' higher,
D7 G
's Gonna be a cold and rainy night.
G
Hands on deck are raw and tired,
D7 G
Prayin' for a sighn of distant light.
D7 C
Feelin' young, feelin' strong,
C
And the might of the night,
G
Is pounding dark and long.
D7 G
We know we'll always wanna be fighting the sea.
[Verse 3]
G
But there's the light and there's the fire,
D7 G
The harbour key shines dimly on the shore.
G
We can see the steeple spire,
D7 G
And now we know we won the fight once more.
D7 C
Feelin' young, feelin' strong,
C
And tonight came out right,
G
But tomorrow could be wrong.
D7 G
We know we'll always wanna be fighting the sea.
