Still brings me to tears

 I wouldn't want to be a big deal
 I wouldn't want to be a celebrity
> I spend my life building ships of steel
> That's all there ever was for me
>
> Take a hammer to the sea belles
> And shout my name
> And I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze
> That's my claim to fame
>
> He spends his life in the studio
> Jet planes and big black cars
> Plays records on the radio
> In all of the clubs and in all of the bars
>
> By day he didn't have a choice
> You had to take a trade
> You had no money and you had no voice
> That's the life I made
>
> Take a hammer to the sea belles
> And shout my name
> And I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze
> That's my claim to fame
>
> That's my claim to fame boys
> That's my claim to fame
> To sail the seas as free as a breeze
> That's my claim to fame

La, la ....: same as intro

Solo: same as verse
>
> Well a song can live forever and a day
> An old ship goes to the breakers yard
> In a hundred years you're gonna hear him play
> They won't remember me for working hard
>
> Now they've all gone away, all the boys and the girls
> They yard is a grave where the river runs through
> We used to build the ships for the whole wide world
> Now we couldn't do it if we wanted to
>
> Take a hammer to the sea belles
> And shout my name
> I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze
> That's my claim to fame
>
> Take a hammer to the sea belles
> And shout my name
> I'll sail the seas as free as a breeze
> That's my claim to fame
>
> That's my claim to fame boys
> That's my claim to fame
> To sail the seas as free as a breeze
