VERSE 1:

      G+G             E minorEm
There's a ship and it sails a sea of light
             C majorC      Am7Am7
On it's way to me to - night from a distant shore
G+G           D MajorD
Taking me home once more.
     G+G               E minorEm
And the waves, and the whistling of the wind
           C majorC    D MajorD       G+G     C majorC
make me come alive again, my destiny's at my door.
    D MajorD           E minorEm   B7B7       E minorEm
Gonna leave this town for - ever and go where I'll never
     A7A7     D MajorD
need an overcoat no more, where they cry

CHORUS:

 D MajorD     G+G      C majorC        G+G   E minorEm      B minorBm
Ooh la la laaa, every night and every day. Sitting by the Gulf Coast,
     Am7Am7       D MajorD
just a thousand miles away. Where they cry
 D MajorD     G+G      C majorC       G+G    C majorC        G+G
Ooh la la laaa, on an island I will dwell, starlit nights in paradise
     D MajorD        G+G
On the isle of San - i - bel.

G+G E minorEm C majorC D MajorD


VERSE 2:

      G+G               E minorEm
There's a girl, and I see her dressed in white
              C majorC     Am7Am7
as she lies there in the night. I can hear her cry
G+G           D MajorD
where has he gone and why?
     G+G              E minorEm             C majorC
But she knows that someday he will arrive, and it keeps her love alive;
D MajorD         G+G     C majorC
dreams can never die.
   D MajorD         E minorEm    B7B7    E minorEm
She looks across the ocean, the sails in motion
    Am7Am7      D MajorD
in the early morning sky. Where they cry


REPEAT CHORUS


BRIDGE:

FF       C majorC   G+G
Angels of the water, sirens of the sea
FF         C majorC         G+G      D MajorD
Whispering their sweet love songs, calling out to me.


REPEAT CHORUS
