[D][G]
[D][A][D][A][Asus4]

[Verse 1]
I'm a [D]happy man
I [A]made my choice in life
I [G]chose [D]to settle down
I [Asus4]chose to take a wife

[Verse 2]
[Bm]And I take pleasure in my quie[A]t
Hearth and happy [Bm]home
I never gave my heart
[E]Its cha[Asus4]nce to ro[F#sus4]am
[F#]I could have been a

[Verse 3]
[Bm]sailor
And [F#m]sailed the seven seas
[D]The win[G]d in my face all day[D]
Can you [Em]taste the salty [F#sus4]breeze?
I [F#]could have been a

[Verse 4]
[Bm]lover
Watchin' [F#m]waves before me [D]part
But I [G]settled for safer har[Em]bors
[Asus4]of my heart[D]
[A][G][D]

[Verse 5]

I'm a [D]lucky man
I'm the [A]envy of my peers
I [G]never ask [D]for favors
Oh, and I never show [Asus4]my fears

[Verse 6]
[Bm]Surrounded by too many friends[A]
I am a one- man band
[Bm]With all the trappings of a [E]life
[Asus4]Lived second- h[Em]and[F#sus4][F#]

[Verse 7]
I could have been a [Bm]sailor[G]
[F#m]Rollin' through [D]the night
My [G]sails before [D]the wind
Where the star's [Em]my only l[F#]ight

[Verse 8]
I could have been a [Bm]dreamer
Yeah, [F#m]but dreams just fall [D]apart
So, I [G]settled for safer har
[Em]bors [G]of my [D]heart
[Asus4]

[Verse 9]
[Bm]And I take pleasure in my quiet
[A]Hearth and happy home
[Bm]I never gave my heart
[E]Its cha[Asus4]nce to ro[Em]am
[E]I cou[Fm]ld have been a

[Verse 10]
[Cm]sailor
And [Gm]sailed the seven [Eb]sea s
Is the [Ab]wind in your face [Eb]all day
And can you [Fm]taste the salty breeze?
[G]I could have been a

[Verse 11]
[Cm]dreamer
And watch the [Gm]waves before me [Eb]part
But I [Ab]settled [Eb]for safer [Fm]har [Bb]bor s[Eb]
[G]Oh, sailor,

[Verse 12]
[Cm]sail[Gm]ed the seven seas[Eb]

[G]Oh lov

Well, I [Ab]settled [Eb]for safer [Fm]harbors of [Eb]my heart,
[G]of my hea[Cm]rt
