G G G/C G/C C C
If I had been born 200 years ago
G G A A D D
I would have been a sailor, a-Sailing I would go
G G G/F# G/F# G G G/F# G/F# C C
I'd sail around the capes across the seven seas and then back home
G G D D G G
If I had been born 200 years ago


G G G/C G/C C C
and I would know the waters and the waters would know me
G G A A D D
I would cut across the waves and be as happy as can be
G G G/F# G/F# G G G/F# G/F# C C
Id be landless Id be loveless Id be flight and fancy free
G G D D G G
and would know the waters and the waters would know me


G G G/C G/C C C
And when I think about the place and time were I was born
G G A A D D
well I wonder if the hands of fate have slipped and placed me wrong
G G G/F# G/F# G G G/F# G/F# C C
cos there are ships I could have sailed and sailors boots I could've worn
G G D D G G
when I think about the place and time were I was born


G G G/C G/C C C
But the ocean is still out there magnificent and wide
G G A A D D
With open arms to hold me, and endless space to hide,
G G G/F# G/F# G G G/F# G/F# C C
And the only things that hold me back are things I hold inside
G G D D G G
The ocean is still out there magnificent and wide


C C C/G C/G D D
Oh, oh, oh
G G G/C G/C C C
Oh, oh, oh
C C C/G C/G D D
Oh, oh, oh
D D G G
A A-Sailing I should go

C C C C D D G G
