Humm - mmm, mm - mm! Humm - mmm!  Humm - mmm - mm!  Humm - mmm, mm, mm - mmm!

C                                (Cmaj7)   Dm              Dm7/A
   The harbour lights were shining,    the moon was in it's high,
     Gsus4                G                      C                     (G7)
The captain said, "Thank God we're home, we've drunk the barrels dry!"
C                            (Cmaj7)          Dm              Dm7/A
   The mizzen-mast was shaken,      and the lanterns all burnt low,
 Gsus4                G                   C                   (C/G)
I never thought we'd make it, but we've twenty leagues to go,
    Em                (Em7)                  Am
So blow, you southern trades, and guide me safely to the shore,
(Am7)     D7        (D7sus4) (D7)       G           G7
     I'm never, ever, gonna  sail the seven seas no more-----!

C                      Cmaj7
I know I'm gonna miss the sand in my hair,
    Em7                       Fmaj7
The roll of the tide, and the salt in the air,
     Dm7                G
But, deep inside, it's true,
      F/C               G7                C     G7
I'm a home lovin' man, coming on home to you,
   C                      Cmaj7
I know I'm gonna miss the wind in my eyes,
      Em7                     Fmaj7
The shimmer of light when the seagull flies,
      Dm7                   G
Al - though I've travelled far,
      Dm7                   G7                F       Dm7   C
I'm a home lovin' man, and home is where you are--------------!

C                    (Cmaj7)       Dm            Dm7/A
The crowd upon the quayside,      their faces long and drawn,
     Gsus4         G             C                   (G7)
Are suddenly a - wakened, as we sail in on the dawn,
     C                          (Cmaj7)     Dm           Dm7/A
The wives, the sons, the lovers,       who never gave up hope,
    Gsus4                 G             C                       (C/G)
All breathe a sigh to - gether as they reach to catch the rope,
      Em                (Em7)                   Am
God bless you, southern trades, you've got me safely back this time,
(Am7)            D7           (D7sus4)  (D7)     G                G7
     Oh, you'll never have the need a - gain to save this soul of mine----!

C                      Cmaj7
I know I'm gonna miss the sand in my hair,
    Em7                       Fmaj7
The roll of the tide, and the salt in the air,
     Dm7                G
But, deep inside, it's true,
