Verse 1:

C                G
The Red Chins in their millions

A proud land of old order

Like a goldfish being swallowed by a whale

Bb                   Ab
Rael, the home of my religion
   Bb                   Ab     G*
To me the center of the Earth

The Red Chins in their millions

Will overspill their borders
N.C.
And chaos then will reign in our Rael
   C           G
My heritage is threatened
   C                  F
My roots are torn and cornered
    C           G                  C     F
And so to do my best I'll homeward sail
    C           G                  C     F    Bb
And so to do my best I'll homeward sail

Chorus:

Bb                               F
Now Captain, listen to my instructions
  Bb                             F
Return to this spot on Christmas Day
Bb                           F
Look toward the shore for my signal
    Bb                               Ab  G    G* Gsus4  G
And then you'll know if in Rael I'll sta-ay

Verse 3:

G           Gsus4       G
If a yellow flag is fluttering
              Gsus4       G
Sickly herald against the morn
            F
Then you'll know my courage has ended
           C              G
And you'll send your boat ashore

Verse 4:

             Gsus4      G
But if a red flag is flying
             Gsus4      G
Brazen bold against the blue
            F
Then you'll know that I am staying
       C                G      Bb
And my yacht belongs to you

Chorus:

Bb                               F
Now Captain, listen to my instructions
  Bb                             F
Return to this spot on Christmas Day
Bb                           F
Look toward the shore for my signal
    Bb                               Ab  G*
And then you'll know if in Rael I'll sta-ay
