          ON BOARD
    ALANA HENDERSON ft. JOSHUA BURNSIDE

CAPO: 1st FRET

INTRO:
NONE


VERSE: (Alana Henderson)
G        Am
I don`t need no shore leave
    F                C
`Cause feet fixed, I still sway to the sea`s heave

 G        Am            F
Don`t?need?to be wrung? out or hung out to dry
        C
I?know how the lands lie

 G         Am
And if you came on board
       F            C
I know you`d scan for the safety of a lighthouse blink

G       Am
Any port in a storm, love
   F
You promise you won`t falter
    C         G
But I know I`ve seen men sink


CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
N.C.       C
So you should get on board
   G            Am      F
With someone whose course is steadier than mine

        C
You should get on board
   G           Am
With someone whose eyes are on the horizon
 F
Not on the skies

C       G
On board with someone
       Am        F
Whose anchor is heavier than mine

        C  C G
You should get on board
 E  Am F
Haa haaaaa


VERSE: (Alana Henderson)
 F      Am       F
`Cause I`m a flotsam jetsam mess
      C      C  G
A drunken sailor in a dre-ess

 G     Am       F
And fifty fathoms deep no less
          C C G
When my heart`s at sea

G          Am
And if you came on board
       F             C
I know you`d tire of the tossing of my seabed

 G         Am
And forget what I said
 F             C      G
Ships were not built to be safe, no, no, no


CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
G         C
So you should get on board
   G            Am      F
With someone whose course is steadier than mine

        C
You should get on board
   G           Am
With someone whose eyes are on the horizon
 F     F  C
Not on the ski-ies

        G
On board with someone
       Am        F
Whose anchor is heavier than mine

        C  C G
You should get on board
E   Am  F
Ha ha haaaa


VERSE: (Joshua Burnside]
 F           C
Well, I`ve weathered worse storms
     E
Than the one, the one you`ve been
Am          F
 Brewin` up in your mind

 F        C
I`ve weathered worse storms
    E          Am
Lord knows, he knows I`ve been sailin`
    F
For an awfully long time

 C             E
Worse storms than all your fair-weather friends
   Am
And your shipmates combined
 F
Tie up those lines

    C
`Cause I shot the albatross
  G
And I will swim across
  Am            F
The old man and the sea has nothin` on me

    C
`Cause this love is steady
 E
Truer than North
  Am         F  C
Now you take that on board
 G        Am  F
You take that on boar-oard


CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
F         C
No, you should get on board
   G            Am      F
With someone whose course is steadier than mine

           C
   You should get on board
(I`ve weathered worse storms)
   G           Am
With someone whose eyes are on the horizon
 F     F  C
Not on the ski-ies
  (I stare at)

        G
On board with someone
       Am        F
Whose anchor is heavier than mine

    F       C    G
    You should get on board
(I`ve sailed in a storm)

 G    Am    F
Will end for the year


VERSE: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
N.C.     C
I`ll be the figurehead
  G
On your ship`s bow
       Am
I`ll be the last glimpse of a topsail
  F
As we go down

     C
I`ll be waiting on the seabed
  G
Repeating the words
     Am          F
Don`t forget, ships were not built to be safe
(You said)

    C        G
And in all my life`s mistakes
 G
You were not one
    Am
`Cause all I`ve ever done
 F
All I`ve ever done

  C
Is love you
    G       Am  F  C
To the bottom of the deep blue sea
