Christy Moore – The Voyage (Guitar)

C      G      F              C
I am a Sailor you're my first mate,

   Am        Em          F           G
We signed on together we coupled our fate,

 F            G      F                C
Hauled up our anchors determined not to fail,

 C             G        F               C
For the hearts treasure together we set sail.

C               G         F                 C
With no maps to guide us we steered our own course,

 Am          Em              F              G
Rode out the storms when the winds were gale force,

F           G          F            C
Sat out the doldrums in patience and hope,

 C      G          F               C
Working together we learned how to cope.

Em         Am        Em        Am
Life is an ocean and love is a boat,

Dm                  F          G
In troubled waters it keeps us afloat,

        F          G                 Em          Am
When we started the voyage there was just me and you,

F                        G             C
Now gathered round us, we have our own crew.

C        G            F         C
Together we're in this relationship,

  Am             Em      F              G
We built it with care to last the whole trip,

    F         G           F             C
Our true destination's not marked on any charts,

C         G              F             C
We're navigating for the shores of the heart.

Em         Am        Em        Am
Life is an ocean and love is a boat,

Dm                  F          G
In troubled waters it keeps us afloat,

        F          G                 Em          Am
When we started the voyage there was just me and you,

F                        G             C
Now gathered round us, we have our own crew.

Em         Am        Em        Am

Em         Am        Em        Am
Life is an ocean and love is a boat,

Dm                  F          G
In troubled waters it keeps us afloat,

        F          G                 Em          Am
