Verse 1:
G                   D          C         G
He was just a young sailor in old California
G           D     C       D     G
Wild as the wind, stormy as the sea
G           D      C           G
And he was a man of his own creation
G                D      C      D    G
Till he fell for a lady of high society

Chorus:
C                          D              G
And now your whole world's turning upside down
C               D                     G
And love with a lady like he's never found
C                D              E-
You want to stay inside her paradise
C            D                 G
To see a new world through her eyes

Verse 2:
G                   D          C         G
So you try to discover the ways of a dreamer
G                    D            C       D     G
As you write all the stories that burn in your heart
G           D      C           G
But no one division is changed by the sailor
G                     D      C      D    G
To a man with the vision that tells you ain't a part

Chorus:
C                          D              G
And now your whole world's turning upside down
C             D                 G
Your fame and fortune has been found
C                           D      E-
But in the end you feel so all alone
C            D                 G
When the high sea call you should be going home

Verse 3:
A         E        D           A
He was a sailor in old California
A          E      D       E     A
Wild as the wind, stormy as the sea
A         E        D           A
And he was a man of his own creation
A                 E      D       E     A
He turned like his father back to the sea
