             D
When I was a young boy I wanted to sail 'round the world

                    Bm
That's the life for me, living on the sea

            D
Spirit of a sailor circumnavigates the globe

           Bm
Lust of pioneer will acknowledge no frontier
[Pre-Chorus 1]
    A                    D
I remember you by thunderclap in the sky

          A                              D           Bm
Lightning flash tempers flare, Round the Horn if you dare
[Chorus 1]
             G
I just spent six months in a leaky boat

                          D A D
Lucky just to keep afloat
[Verse 2]
     D
Aotearoa, rugged individual

                Bm
Glisten like a pearl at the bottom of the world

              D
The tyrany of distance didn't stop the cavalier

                      Bm
So why should it stop me? I'll conquer and stay free
[Pre-Chorus 2]
        A                      D
So come on all you lads, let's forget and forgive

          A                          D            Bm
There's a world to explore, tales to tell back on shore
[Chorus 2]
             G
I just spent six months in a leaky boat

                          D A D
Six months in a leaky boat
[Instrumental] D G D G D A (x2) D Bm (x2) [Pre-Chorus 3]
            A                           D
Shipwrecked love can be cruel, don't be fooled by her kind

          A                         D           Bm
There's a wind in my sails, will protect and prevail
[Chorus 3]

Nothin' to it leaky boat
