Great Big Sea – Wave Over Wave (Guitar Live)

     D        Em7 Asus4   D
My names Able Rodgers, a share man am I

      G            D               Em           A
On a three-masted schooner from Twillingate Isle

     D             Em7 Asus4        D 
I've been the world over, North, South, East and West

         G         D               Em           A
But the middle of nowhere’s where I likes it best

            G          D     G        D
Where it's wave over wave, sea over bow

        G       D         Em        A
I'm as happy a man as the sea will allow

         D        Em7 Asus4     D
There's no other life for a sailor like me

         G              D          Em       A
Then to sail the salt sea boy to sail the sea

         G        D             A             D Dsus2 Em7 Asus4
There's no other life but to sail the salt sea

         D           Em7 Asus4     D
Well I leave my wife lonely ten months of the year

         G           D              Em            A
For she built me a home and raised my children there

      D    Em7 Asus4       D
She never come out to bid farewell to me

    G           D          Em            A
Or ken why a sailor must sail the salt sea

             G          D    G       D
Where it's wave over wave, sea over bow

        G       D           Em          A
I'm as happy a man as the sea will allow

        D       Em7 Asus4      D
Ah the work is hard and the hours are long

        G          D          Em           A
But my spirit is willing my back it is strong

     D            Em7 Asus4    D
And when the works over the whisky will pour

       G                D         Em            A
We'll dance with the girls upon some foreign shore

      D               Em7 Asus4    D
I've sailed the world over four decades or more

     G             D           Em       A
And oft times I wondered what I do it for

     D            Em7 Asus4      D
I don't know the answer it's pleasure and pain

          G             D       Em      A
But with life to live over I'd do it again

             G          D    G       D
Where it's wave over wave, sea over bow

        G       D           Em          A
