[Verse 1]
D                A              D         G
Small craft in a harbour that's still and serene,

D           A           D               G
Give no indication what their ways have been;

D                  A            D          G
They rock at their moorings all nestled in dreams,

D             A7          D

[Verse 2]
[tab]D                      A         D         G
Their stern lines are groaning a lullaby air,

D               A       D           G
A ghost in the cuddy, a gull on the spar;

    D          A          D        G
But never they whisper of journeys afar,

D             A7          D
Away from the roll of the sea.
[Chorus]
    D
Oh, had they the tongues for to speak,

     D7                          G
What tales of adventure they'd weave;

    A            A7          D
But now they are anchored to sleep,

             A     A7
And slumber alee.
[Verse 3]
D                  A         D            G
Come fair winds to wake them tomorrow, we pray,

D               A         D          G
Come harvest a-plaenty to them ev'ry day;

    D         A              D               G
Til guided by harbour lights they're home to stay,

  D           A7          D
Away from the roll of the sea.

  D           A7          D    D7
Away from the roll of the sea.
