The [G] _ [D] harbor _ [G] lights are gleaming,
_ _ _ The _ evening's coming _ in.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G#] Seagulls [Em] all are dreaming,
_ _ _ Seagull _ [F#m] dreams on the [D] hammer's drive.
_ _ _ [G] The mist is slowly drifting, _ _ _
_ The storefront _ lights [Em] go dim.
_ _ _ [G] The moon [D] is _ [Em] gently lifting, _ _
_ As [A] the last _ _ ship's [D] coming _ in.
_ _ [C]
Every _ _ [G] sailor's got a story,
_ _ Some are true and some are [C] false. _ _ _
[E] But they're _ [D] always right,
[B] And they're up [E] on the deck,
[A] _ [Em] Dancing the [D] same time [G] more. _ _

_ _ _ _ _ We've had our [D] share of [G] history, _
_ We've [C] seen nations _ come [G] and go,
_ _ _ We've seen _ battles [D] raged,
Over [Em] _
land and _ stage,
Two [A] hundred _ _ _ years [D] or more. _ _ _
[G] For glory _ or for freedom,
_ _ _ For [C] _
country or [Em] for king, _ _
_ [G] For money or [D] faith,
But there [Em] are no [E] names on [A] the graves,
Where men [D] lie sleeping. _
_ _ And [C] all the names of fighters,
_ _ Survived the day [G] with a sigh,
And a dozed [C] off soul.
_ _ _ [C#] And they're parking their [D] car,
_ _ [B] Back in the bars,
And [A] dancing [D] as they [G] tell. _ _ _ _ _ _ _

[E] _
Perry Collins, everybody. _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ My heart [D] is on [G] the highway,
My eyes _ are sold on the _ sea.
_ _ _ The planes [F#] all fill [E] the skyway,
[Em] _ _
[A] The trains run swift [E] and free.
[D] _ _ So [G] leave the wayward _ [E] free to wander,
[G] _
_ _ Leave the restless _ free [Em] to roam.
_ [G] _ _
If it's the rocks and [D] the bay,
[Em] Let me softly [E] say we'll [A] find
Our way [D] back home. _ _ _
[C] No question,
_ _ Won't inquire,
_ _ [G] What's been gained or _ what's [C] been lost. _
_ _ [A] Don't strive [D] to challenge,
_ [B] Don't work for the [E] state. _ _
_ [G] Dancing at St.
John's,
Waltz of the Feathers, you know.
_ _ Ain't a world of [D]
romance,
[G] Don't miss [B] out on [E] the chance,
_ To be [Am] dancing _ at [G] St.
_ John's, _ _ Waltz. _ _ _ _ _ _
