Intro - Em C Bm D2 x2
Em C Am7
Pacing the deck a lonely bosun

Jack-tarred and fired beneath the salt of ocean
Em C Am7
Lend me an anchor to sink this planet
D Bm C Am7 D
Unhook these arms to ply their godly habit

There's so many tides are made to go to waste?

So many tides are made to go to waste
Em C Bm D (x2)
Em C Am7
Veining the eyes as ages alter?
D Bm C Am7 D
This sacred trade is everywhere and nowhere?
Em C Am7
Hung out to dry in tall black cabins
D Bm C Am7 D
Facing the cliffs the gangs of gulls inhabit

So many tides are made to go to waste
Em C Bm D (x2)

Wasting in the midday sun

And the yards will be replaced anon
C D Bm Em
And we all shall be replaced anon
