Oh, the harbour lights are gleamin',
F C
And the evening's still and dark;
Em Am7
And the seagulls are all dreaming,
D G
Seagull dreams on Amherst Rock.
C G7 C
And the mist is slowly drifting,
F Am
As the shorefront lights go dim;
C Em Am7
And the moon is gently liftin',
D G
As the last ship's - the last ship's - comin' in.
F G
All the sailors got a story,
Am7 C F Am7
Some are true, some are false;
D G E A7
But they're always wrecked and they're up on the deck,
D G C
dancin' the St John's Waltz.
C C6 C
And we've had our share of history,
F C
We've seen nations come and go;
Em Am7
We've seen battles rage over land and stage,
D G
Two hundred years and more.
C G7 C
For glory or for freedom,
F Am
Or for country or for King;
C Em Am7
Or for money or fame, but there are no names,
D G
On the graves where men lie sleeping.
F G
All the nine-to-fives survive the day,
Am7 C F Am7
With a sigh and a dose of salts;
D G E A7
They're parkin' their cars and packin' the bars,
D G C
Dancin' the St John's Waltz.

Oh, my heart is on the highway,
F C
And I'm sold on goin' to sea;
Em Am7
All the planes fill the skyway,
D G
All the trains run swift and free.
C G7 C
So leave the wayward free to wander,
F Am
Leave the restless free to roam;
C Em Am7
If there's rocks in the bay, if it's old cliché,
D G
You'll find your way back home.
F G
But don't question or inquire,
Am7 C F Am7
What's been gained, what's been lost;
D G E A7
In a world of romance don't miss out on the chance,
D G C
To be dancin' the St John's Waltz.
