Searchers play a very similar arrangement of this song as The Beatles in Hamburg in 1962. This is a 1964 live BBC recording [Intro] F# B [Chorus]

Way out on the sea,

Home safely to me.

She sailed at the dawning,

     B
All day I've been blue.

Red sails in the sunset,

     B
I'm trusting in you.

[Bridge]

                       E
Swift wings you must borrow,

B
Make straight for the shore,

             E
We marry tomorrow

And she goes sailing no more.

Home safely to me.
