I play this in DADGAD with twiddly bits but try this for concert.
D A G Emi
Well, you sailed the cold waters of the great northern bays,
A G D
Ice thick on your rigging, lee rail under the waves,
D A G Emi
And the snow on your canvas, like a winter gull's wing.
A G D
Oh, all the times you've been through.
Emi
And now you've got hard times,
G A D
And now you lie still,
G D A
And you're fast to the anchor and chain.
D A G Emi
Broken and tired, Summer winds pass you by,
D A G
But you're bound to go sailing again.
Now that I've posted this someone is bound to come up with a different sequence! I actually sing it in the key of E so transpose to suit.
