[Verse]
Am Em F Em
I thought to spend my early years across the open sea
Am Em G A5/E Em
With not a care but finding all the wealth that I could keep
F Am G Em
Our ship she stood tall with 26 sails, a sight for all to see
F Em F Em Am
Not 3 weeks in she took a good knock that sent her right down to the deep
Am Fmaj7 G6 Dsus2/A
And as the sky went dim I saw several fins guide myself and the company
F Am G6 D5 (w/
octave on 5th fret, high E string)
To a port in the storm with an inn who’s sign bore a star adorned in leaves
N.C.
When the night is long and we’re all full of dread
Oh where am I to go
For we’re all good and lost and we’re missing our beds
Am G Am
Oh lady oh take us home!
Am Am
When we’ve run through our stores and our taking is high
Cadd9 Dsus2/A
And we’ve nowhere left to roam
F Em
Oh we’ll keep our chins up and we’ll look to the sky
Am G G/E Am
Oh lady oh take us home!
Am Fmaj7
When I went to go pay the landlady my share
G6 Dsus2/A
I was struck by the sheen of her copper red hair
F G
And she wouldn’t take our money but pointed us where
E
We could find the main land so we hauled a boat there
[Chorus]
Am
When the night is long and we’re all full of dread
Cadd9 D
Oh where am I to go
F Em
For we’re all good and lost and we’re missing our beds
Am G G/E Am
Oh lady oh take us home!
Am
When we’ve run through our stores and our taking is high
Cadd9 D
And we’ve nowhere left to roam
F Em
Oh we’ll keep our chins up and we’ll look to the sky
Am G G/E Am
Oh lady oh take us home!
[Verse]
Am Fmaj7
When we’d found a new vessel, no more than a year
