Am                        Em      F                  Em
I thought to spend my early years across the open sea
     Am                     Em      G                   A5/E    Em
With not a care but finding all the wealth that I could keep
    F                        Am          G                Em
Our ship she stood tall with 26 sails, a sight for all to see
    F              Em                     F              Em          Am
Not 3 weeks in she took a good knock that sent her right down to the deep


           Am                 Fmaj7                G6                Dsus2/A
And as the sky went dim I saw several fins guide myself and the company
     F                         Am                    G6              D5 (w/ octave on 5th fret, high E string)
To a port in the storm with an inn who’s sign bore a star adorned in leaves

N.C.
When the night is long and we’re all full of dread
Oh where am I to go
For we’re all good and lost and we’re missing our beds

   Am      G       Am
Oh lady oh take us home!
           Am                             Am
When we’ve run through our stores and our taking is high
          Cadd9           Dsus2/A
And we’ve nowhere left to roam
         F                           Em
Oh we’ll keep our chins up and we’ll look to the sky
   Am      G    G/E   Am
Oh lady oh take us    home!

       Am                     Fmaj7
When I went to go pay the landlady my share
      G6                         Dsus2/A
I was struck by the sheen of her copper red hair
        F                           G
And she wouldn’t take our money but pointed us where
         E
We could find the main land so we hauled a boat there

[Chorus]
         Am
When the night is long and we’re all full of dread
   Cadd9         D
Oh where am I to go
          F                           Em
For we’re all good and lost and we’re missing our beds
   Am      G    G/E  Am
Oh lady oh take us   home!

           Am
When we’ve run through our stores and our taking is high
          Cadd9           D
And we’ve nowhere left to roam
         F                           Em
Oh we’ll keep our chins up and we’ll look to the sky
   Am      G    G/E  Am
Oh lady oh take us   home!

[Verse]
          Am                     Fmaj7
When we’d found a new vessel, no more than a year
       G6                       Dsus2/A
On the bow did we see that same lady appear
         F                          Am
When our cook stepped before her, a compass in hand
        A5/E                      Dsus2/A
And she lead us to where we could get back to land

[Chorus]
         E                       A        
When the night is long and we’re all full of dread
   C             D        
Oh where am I to go
          F                           E        
For we’re all good and lost and we’re missing our beds
   Am      G    G/E  Am
Oh lady oh take us   home!
           Am                             Am
When we’ve run through our stores and our taking is high
          Cadd9           Dsus2/A
And we’ve nowhere left to roam
         F                           Em
Oh we’ll keep our chins up and we’ll look to the sky
   Am      G    G/E  Am
Oh lady oh take us   home!
