Chords with lyrics

INTRO:
NONE


VERSE: (Alana Henderson)

G+G        A minorAm
I don't need no shore leave

    FF                C majorC
'Cause feet fixed, I still sway to the sea's heave


 G+G        A minorAm            FF
Don't?need?to be wrung? out or hung out to dry

        C majorC
I?know how the lands lie

 G+G         A minorAm
And if you came on board

       FF            C majorC
I know you'd scan for the safety of a lighthouse blink


G+G       A minorAm
Any port in a storm, love

   FF
You promise you won't falter

    C majorC         G+G
But I know I've seen men sink


CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)

N.C.       C majorC
So you should get on board

   G+G            A minorAm      FF
With someone whose course is steadier than mine


        C majorC
You should get on board

   G+G           A minorAm
With someone whose eyes are on the horizon

 FF
Not on the skies

C majorC       G+G
On board with someone

       A minorAm        FF
Whose anchor is heavier than mine


        C majorC  C majorC G+G
You should get on board

 E MajorE  A minorAm FF
Haa haaaaa


VERSE: (Alana Henderson)

 FF      A minorAm       FF
'Cause I'm a flotsam jetsam mess

      C majorC      C majorC  G+G
A augmentedA drunken sailor in a dre-ess


 G+G     A minorAm       FF
And fifty fathoms deep no less

          C majorC C majorC G+G
When my heart's at sea


G+G          A minorAm
And if you came on board

       FF             C majorC
I know you'd tire of the tossing of my seabed


 G+G         A minorAm
And forget what I said

 FF             C majorC      G+G
Ships were not built to be safe, no, no, no


CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)

G+G         C majorC
So you should get on board

   G+G            A minorAm      FF
With someone whose course is steadier than mine


        C majorC
You should get on board

   G+G           A minorAm
With someone whose eyes are on the horizon

 FF     FF  C majorC
Not on the ski-ies


        G+G
On board with someone

       A minorAm        FF
Whose anchor is heavier than mine


        C majorC  C majorC G+G
You should get on board

E MajorE   A minorAm  FF
Ha ha haaaa


VERSE: (Joshua Burnside]

 FF           C majorC
Well, I've weathered worse storms

     E MajorE
Than the one, the one you've been

A minorAm          FF
 Brewin' up in your mind


 FF        C majorC
I've weathered worse storms

    E MajorE          A minorAm
Lord knows, he knows I've been sailin'

    FF
For an awfully long time


 C majorC             E MajorE
Worse storms than all your fair-weather friends

   A minorAm
And your shipmates combined

 FF
Tie up those lines


    C majorC
'Cause I shot the albatross

  G+G
And I will swim across

  A minorAm            FF
The old man and the sea has nothin' on me


    C majorC
'Cause this love is steady

 E MajorE
Truer than North

  A minorAm         FF  C majorC
Now you take that on board

 G+G        A minorAm  FF
You take that on boar-oard


CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)

FF         C majorC
No, you should get on board

   G+G            A minorAm      FF
With someone whose course is steadier than mine


           C majorC
   You should get on board
(I've weathered worse storms)

   G+G           A minorAm
With someone whose eyes are on the horizon

 FF     FF  C majorC
Not on the ski-ies
  (I stare at)


        G+G
On board with someone

       A minorAm        FF
Whose anchor is heavier than mine


    FF       C majorC    G+G
    You should get on board
(I've sailed in a storm)


 G+G    A minorAm    FF
Will end for the year


VERSE: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)

N.C.     C majorC
I'll be the figurehead

  G+G
On your ship's bow

       A minorAm
I'll be the last glimpse of a topsail

  FF
As we go down


     C majorC
I'll be waiting on the seabed

  G+G
Repeating the words

     A minorAm          FF
Don't forget, ships were not built to be safe
(You said)


    C majorC        G+G
And in all my life's mistakes

 G+G
You were not one

    A minorAm
'Cause all I've ever done

 FF
All I've ever done


  C majorC
Is love you

    G+G       A minorAm  FF  C majorC
To the bottom of the deep blue sea
