The sailor and the song, the danger and bravado
         G+G             C majorC
Of how he carried on and the loneliness that followed

Of the breeze, through random seas

Now the headlights blind my eyes
     A minorAm       G+G   FF
Redeeming light, into the night

Of love and life and who we are
