key of Eb MajorEb (Capo on Fret 1)

INTRO:

(D MajorD)The skies over (G+G)Cuba(D MajorD), turned (A augmentedA)pink with the (D MajorD)light

And the waterfront (B minorBm)ritual, began to (A augmentedA)ignite.

All the ships in the (G+G)harbour(D MajorD), were (A augmentedA)warmed by the (D MajorD)sun

Twenty fifth of (B minorBm)November, (A augmentedA)Nineteen Twenty-(D MajorD)one. (G+G) (D MajorD)

On the old Chicka(G+G)mouga(D MajorD), the (A augmentedA)signal jacks (D MajorD)flew

And the message they (B minorBm)spelled out, caused a great bally(A augmentedA)hoo

Every ship in (G+G)Havana(D MajorD), then (A augmentedA)hoisted (D MajorD)away

All the pennants were (B minorBm)flyin', (A augmentedA)on my Dad's first (D MajorD)birthday


CHORUS:

(A augmentedA)Enduring echoes call (D MajorD)out from his past,

(A augmentedA)Time ain't for savin', no (D MajorD)time's not for that.

(B minorBm)Chasin' false (F# minorF#m)echoes like A augmentedA (G+G)lost legionnaire(A augmentedA),

He (G+G)waltzes on (B minorBm)memories while he (A augmentedA)fades like (D MajorD)flare (G+G) (D MajorD)


Verse 2

Now his storybook (G+G)childhood(D MajorD), was (A augmentedA)not make (D MajorD)believe

On the decks of a (B minorBm)tall ship, he was taught to (A augmentedA)achieve.

Witnessed storms and (G+G)starvation(D MajorD), Natural (A augmentedA)wonders and (D MajorD)Force

Oh the life of A augmentedA (B minorBm)sailor, (A augmentedA)steers A augmentedA wandering (D MajorD)course (G+G) (D MajorD)


REPEAT CHORUS:

(A augmentedA)Enduring echoes call (D MajorD)out from his past,

(A augmentedA)Time ain't for savin', no (D MajorD)time's not for that.
(B minorBm)Chasin' false (F# minorF#m)echoes like A augmentedA (G+G)lost legionnaire(A augmentedA),

He (G+G)waltzes on (B minorBm)memories while he (A augmentedA)fades like (D MajorD)flare (G+G) (D MajorD)

Verse 3

Well now life throws us (G+G)curve (D MajorD)balls, We (A augmentedA)never can (D MajorD)reach

He gave up the (B minorBm)ocean, but he lived by the (A augmentedA)beach.

Where he raised up his (G+G)family(D MajorD), taught (A augmentedA)us all to (D MajorD)survive

Then the wind went (B minorBm)away in (A augmentedA)Nineteen Ninety-(D MajorD)Five (G+G) (D MajorD)


INSTRUMENTAL:
(A augmentedA) (D MajorD)
(A augmentedA) (D MajorD)
(B minorBm) (F# minorF#m) (G+G) (A augmentedA)
(G+G) (B minorBm) (A augmentedA) (D MajorD) (G+G) (D MajorD)

Verse 4

Now the old Chicka(G+G)mauga(D MajorD), has (A augmentedA)slipped by the (D MajorD)ways

She lies on the (B minorBm)bottom of old Mobile (A augmentedA)Bay

Where the ghosts of his (G+G)father(D MajorD) and his (A augmentedA)brother are (D MajorD)near

They protect him and (B minorBm)tell him, (A augmentedA)There's nothing to (D MajorD)fear (G+G) (D MajorD)

Cause it's family (G+G)tradition(D MajorD), We (A augmentedA)take to the (D MajorD)sea

And it's a time in the (B minorBm)future, For (A augmentedA)Cameron and (D MajorD)me (G+G) (D MajorD)


REPEAT CHORUS:

(A augmentedA)Enduring echoes call (D MajorD)out from his past,

(A augmentedA)Time ain't for savin', no (D MajorD)time's not for that.

(B minorBm)Chasin' false (F# minorF#m)echoes like A augmentedA (G+G)lost legionnaire(A augmentedA),

He (G+G)waltzes on (B minorBm)memories while he (A augmentedA)fades like (D MajorD)flare (G+G) (D MajorD)


Outro

(D MajorD)The skies over (G+G)Cuba(D MajorD) Were (A augmentedA)warmed by the (D MajorD)sun,

Twenty fifth of (B minorBm)November, (A augmentedA)Nineteen Twenty-one(D MajorD).
