[Verse 1]
[D][Gm]
[C][D][C]
[D][Bb][Gm][C][D]
[C][D][C][Bb][C]
[D]Take a good look around
[C]and [Bb]tell me what you see
[C]The [D]ocean blue and a shi[C]p set sai[D]l
[C]And a lif[Bb]e that's good
and [Gm]free[Bb][C]
[D]Now look in the mir[C]ror
[D]An [C]d tel[Bb]l me what you find
[C]An [D]hon[Dm]est eye[D] and a wea[C]ther brow
And I'm [Bb]mad with peace of mind
I'm [C]mad with peace of mind
But I'm [D]sailing [C]across the open shore
It's the [Bb]only life I [C]know when I go
[D]Sailing and [C]never wanting more
Than this [Bb]ship that I call [C]home
when I'm [D]alone[C][D][Bb][C][D]
[C][Bb][C]
[D]When I was [C]just a lad, ten [Bb]years or so
I'd [C]say
[D]I wanted t[C]o see the world
and [Bb]earn a seaman's pay
Just an [C]honest wage
[D]I got my first job[C]
aboard a [Bb]whaler from Soho
[C]Well, [D]I was much you[C]nger then,
so [Bb]many years ago,
so [C]many years ago.
But I'm [D]sailing [C]across the open shore.
It's [Bb]the only life I [C]know when I go
[D]sailing and [C]never wanting more
And it's [Bb]him that I call h[C]ome

[Interlude 1]
when I'm alone

[Verse 2]
Now that my [C]life is spent
and my [Bb]story's over [C]-told
[D]I think of the y[C]ounger years
and the [Bb]memories that they [C]hold
[D]Of all the regret[C]s I have,
there's [Bb]one that comes t[C]o mind
[D]This life as a [C]common man
With a [Bb]girl I left behind
A [C]girl that was so kind
But I'm [D]sailing
Yeah, [C]across the open shore
It's the [Bb]only life I [C]know
And I go [D]sailing
And [C]never wanting more
Than this [Bb]ship that I call [C]home
And I'm [D]alone
Than this [Bb]ship that I call [C]home
And I'm alone
[D]Oh, find the tru[Bb]th that I call hom[C]e

[Outro 1]
when I'm alone
