INTRO:

G C/G G C/G G

C/G G

A passing ship, I have found the open ocean

C/G G D

Give me no lip, the waves roll by as I press on

C/G G D

A sunlit sea, on the first day in April

C/G G

How fresh the wind, will you miss me when I'm gone

C/G G

How many words, how many songs still unwritten

C/G G D

How many ships of the line have come and gone

C/G G D

In the good old days, may they never be forgotten

C/G G

They had heavy wind or they had no wind at all

INSTRUMENTAL:

G D F C G

C/G G

A passing ship, it is midnight on the ocean

C/G G D

Had a real long trip, I have been at sea all winter

C/G G D

When my ship came in, I was giving up the ghost

C/G G

I think I should be leaving those passing ships alone

C/G G

When the sea runs high, the sea runs wild and I'm unsteady

C/G G D

And I think of you, in the warmth of your home and family

C/G G D

When love is true, there is no truer occupation

C/G G

And may this gale, blow us to the ones we love

C/G G

Another day, another ocean

C/G G D

Give me no lip, but stand aside as I press on
