[Am] [G] Oh the harbor lights are gleaming, [C] and the evening's still [G] and dark,
and the seagulls are [Em] all dreaming.
[A] Seagulls breathe on [D] Amherst rock,
and [G] the mist is slowly drifting as [C] the storefront lights [Em] go dim,
[G] and the moon is gently [Em] lifted as [A] the last ship's [D] coming in.
[C] All the sailors got a story, [D] some [Em] are true and [G] some [C] are false,
[G] [A] but they're [D] always right, [B] and they're up [E] on the deck, [A] and dance [D] on the St.
[G] John's walls.

we've had our share of history, we've [C] seen nations come [G] and go,
we've seen battles [D] raged [Em] over land and stage, [A] two hundred years [D] or more,
[G] for glory or for freedom, or [C] for country or [Em] for king, or [G] for money or fame,
but [Em] there are no names [A] on the graves where men [D] lie sleeping.
[C] All but nine to five survive [D] today [Em] with a sigh and a dose [C] of salt,
[G] and [A] they're parking their [D] cars, [B] and packing [E] the bars, [Am] and dancing [D] on the St.
[G] John's walls.

[G] [Am] Oh, [G] my heart is on the highway, and [C] I'm so long [G] gone to see,
all the planes [D] fill [Em] the skyway, all [A] the trains run swiftly,
[D] so leave [G] the wayward free to wander, leave [C] the restless free [Em]
to roam.
[G] If there's rocks in the bay, [Em] if it's all cliche, [A] you'll find your way [D] back home.
But [C] don't question or inquire [D] what's [Em] been gained, [G] what's [C] been lost.
[G] In [A] a world of [D] romance, don't [B] miss out on [E] the chance to [Am] be dancing [D] on the St.
[G] John's walls.
