Got out of town [G] on a boat from the [D] Southern Islands
[A] Sailing near Reach [G] before a [D] following [A] sea
She was making [G] for the trades [D] on the outside
[A] From the down hill [G] run to Papate [A] Bay
Off the wind [G] on this heading by [D] the Marquesas
[A] You got 80 [G] feet of the water line, [D] [A] that's the making way
On a noisy [G] bar in Avalon I [D] tried to call you
[A] But on midnight [G] watch I realized [D] why twice you [A] ran away
[G] Think about, think [D] about how many [G] times I [A] have [G] fallen
[D] Spirits are using [G] me, larger [A] voices [G] calling
What [D] heaven brought you and [G] me cannot [A] be forgotten

Cause the truth you [G] might be running [D] from is so small
But [A] it's as big [G] as the promise, promise of a [A] coming day
So I'm sailing [G] for tomorrow, my [D] dreams are dying
[A] My love [G] is a anchor tied [D] to you, tied with a [A] silver chain
I have my ship [G] and all the [D] flags are flying
She [A] is all that I [G] have left [D] and [G] music [A] is her name
[G] Think about, think [D] about how many [G] times I [A] have [G] fallen
[D] Spirits are using [G] me, larger [A] voices [G] calling
What [D] heaven brought you and [G] me cannot [A] be forgotten
