D
Baby it's been a long time, we've been sitting on drydock
      D                                       A
And it seems like all the pathways have been blocked
A7
Now the tides have turned and the rewards we have earned
Em                       A
Bringing us good feeling, set our hearts a-reeling, baby

Our ship is sailing, yes we are moving

D
Now let's rock it steady, since a long time we've been ready
                          A
Let nothing detract our attention

Let's take our time 'cause I'm feeling so fine
Em                     A
When you hold me tight, everything's all right, darlin'

Now with love and affection, we're moving in the right direction
    G                            D
