Em     G       Am           Bm7
Nobody saw our sails on the horizon
Em     G        Am             Bm7
Nobody heard propellers in the dawn
Em     G         Am              Bm7
Nobody smelt our coal fires were burning
Em     G               Am             Bm7
Nobody knew--under the radar we crept on

[Chorus]
        Em                    Am
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning
        Em                      Am
Here we come, fife and drum, propellers in the dawn
        Em                    Am
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning
        Em                             Am             Em
Here we come, fife and drum, under the radar we crept on!

[Verse 2]
Em     G       Am                  Bm7
Nobody saw our broadsides at their window
Em     G         Am                 Bm7
Nobody heard our trapdoors swinging wide
Em     G       Am             Bm7
Nobody saw our cannons taking aim
Em     G                   Am               Bm7
Nobody heard my whispered "Fire, blow their sides."

[Chorus]
        Em                    Am
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning
        Em                      Am
Here we come, fife and drum, propellers in the dawn
        Em                    Am
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning
        Em                             Am             Em
Here we come, fife and drum, under the radar we crept on!

[Verse 3]
Em       G         Am          Bm7
Somebody heard our cannon fire ringing
Em       G       Am            Bm7
Somebody saw the windows shattering
Em       G       Am                Bm7
Somebody saw the hooks and tethers flying
Em       G                Am                  Bm7
Somebody saw my crew with swords drawn coming in!

[Chorus]
        Em                    Am
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning
        Em                      Am
Here we come, fife and drum, propellers in the dawn
        Em                    Am
Here we come, on the run, our coal fires are burning
        Em                             Am             Em
Here we come, fife and drum, under the radar we crept on!
