[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Em Every sailor's son is taught when they are young Bm A That the pull of the moon lingers on Em C G Something we can't escape from Bimini round the Cape D D/A D Mixing the wind and the sea and sing along Em To whom it may concern, I've always tried to learn Bm A That the good days need to last Em Season with a lot of laughter C D D/A D Here and then ever after with poetry and painters from our past
[Chorus]
A Bm G D So I follow the tides on currents falling wild Bm G A Chalking up the stories and the miles Bm G D Yes, I follow the tides, big blue rides Bm G D And that's the reason I will never lose my smile
[Verse 2]
Em Hoping to catch a wave, looking to misbehave Bm A As my lucky star still shine above the sea Em C Watching the ships roll in, I play that Otis song again D D/A D For the tourists and some mermaids by the sea
[Chorus]
A Bm G D And I follow the tides, down my song lines far and wide Bm G A World to me should still be free and wild Bm G D Yes, I follow the tides, give me more big blue rides Bm G D And that's the reason I will never lose my smile
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
Em Every sailor's son is taught when they are young Bm A That the pull of the moon lingers on Em C G Something we can't escape, is it salt water or just fate? D D/A D Mixing the wind and the sea and sing along
[Chorus]
A Bm G D And we'll follow the tides, down a song line far and wide Bm G A It seems to me my life's still free and wild Bm G D Yes, we'll follow the tides, give us more big blue rides Bm G D And that's the reason I will never lose my smile
[Outro]
Bm G D And that's the reason you should never lose your smile
Em A Bm A C G D
