[Verse 1]
Em A
Oh I'll row with the waves 'till the numbness
Em A
Though the sea calls your voice is my compass
D A G
I'm pulled out by the swell
D A G
Put your ear to the shell
Em A
You can listen to my ocean song
Em A7
I'm singing through the roughest storm
[Chorus]
D A Bm
Oh when the wind's a-whipping at the big cut
A D
Licking at the quay wall
A Bm
We can feel the musterin' squall
A D
I wish that I could fly
A Bm
So I could be home and dry
A D
Oh I wish that I could fly
A Bm
So I could be home and dry
A D A Bm A D A Bm A
And haul away!
[Verse 2]
Em A
I could stay here swing through the seasons
Em A
Look for a change here question my reasons
D A G
now look and I'm leaving
D A G
There's things are worth achieving
Em A
There's nets to be shot son
Em A7
I'm 'way with the flotsam
[Chorus]
D A Bm
Oh when the wind's a-whipping at the big cut
A D
Licking at the quay wall
A Bm
We can feel the musterin' squall
A D
I wish that I could fly
A Bm
So I could be home and dry
A D
Oh I wish that I could fly
A Bm
So I could be home and dry
A D A Bm A D A Bm A
And haul away!
[Verse 3]
Em A
There's sunsets bright as a furnace
Em A
But I'm not sure quite when my turn is
D A G
I'm searching for a landmark
D A G
Gazing out through the dark
Em A
I need your reminding
Em A7
That the lighthouse is shining
[Chorus]
D A Bm
Oh when the winds a-whipping at the big cut
A D
Licking at the quay wall
A Bm
We can feel the musterin' squall
A D
Oh I wish that I could fly
A Bm
So I could be home and dry
A D
Oh I wish that I could fly
A Bm
So I could be home and dry
A D
Oh I wish that I could fly
A Bm
So I could be home and dry
A D
Oh I wish that I could fly
A Bm
So I could be home and dry
A D A Bm A D
And haul away
