[Intro]
E Dsus2 Asus2 E Esus4 E Dsus2 Asus2 E Esus4 E
[Verse]
E As the son of a son of a sailor Dsus2 Asus2 E Esus4 E I went out on the sea for adventure A E Expanding the view of the captain and crew B7 E Esus4 E like a man just released from indenture E As a dreamer of dreams and a travelin' man Dsus2 Asus2 E I have chalked up many a mile. A E Read dozens of books about heroes and crooks B7 E Esus4 E and I learned much from both of their styles.
[Chorus]
Dsus2 Asus2 Son of a son, Son of a son A E Esus4 E Son of a son of a sailor Dsus2 Asus2 Son of a gun, Load the last ton A E Esus4 E One step ahead of the jailor
[Verse]
E
Now way in the near future,Dsus2 Asus2E
Southeast of disorder
A E You can shake the hand of the mango man B7 E Esus4 E As he greets you at the border E And the lady she hails from trinidad, Dsus2 Asus2 E Island of the spices A E Salt for your meat, and cinnamon sweet B7 E Esus4 E And the rum is for all your good vices.
[Bridge]
Dsus2 Asus2 Haul the sheet in as we ride on the wind A E Esus4 E That our fore-fathers harnessed before us Dsus2 Asus2 Hear the bells ring as the tight rigging sings A E Esus4 E It's a son of a gun of a chorus
[Solo]
Dsus2 Asus2 A E Esus4 E Dsus2 Asus2 A E Esus4 E
[Verse]
E Now where it all ends, I can't fathom my friends Dsus2 Asus2 E Esus4 E If I knew I might toss out my anchor A E So I'll cruise along always searching for songs B7 E Esus4 E Not a lawyer, a thief or a banker
[Chorus]
Dsus2 Asus2 But a son of a son, son of a son A E Esus4 E Son of a son of a sailor Dsus2 Asus2 Son of a gun, load the last ton A E Esus4 E One step ahead of the jailor
[Outro]
Dsus2 Asus2 I'm just a son of a son, son of a son E Esus4 E Son of a son of a sailor Dsus2 Asus2 The sea's in my veins, my tradition remains A E Esus4 E I'm just glad I don't live in a trailer
