verse 1 
D        G      A       D   
  He was born a sailors son, 
G            D       A 
Nothing came easy or free, 
   D            G                A         D 
He suffered the squalls, all the rises and falls, 
    G          D          A 
And everything else in between. 

Pre-Chorus 1 
            G             A           D                Bm 
But he says storms always fade after they've had their way, 
        G                    A 
They're never as bad as they seem. 


   G            A           D          Bm 
As long as the rivers still run to the seas, 
G         A         Bm 
Hey lucky you lucky me, 
G         A         D 
Hey lucky you lucky me.

Who'd ever thought for a moment, 
She'd have to grow up so fast, 
School beauty queen with a child at sixteen, 
Swore that her fortunes had passed. 

Pre-Chorus 2 
But blessings can hide in the strangest disguise, 
I know that she would agree. 

Chorus 
As long as the rivers still run to the seas, 
Hey lucky you lucky me, 
Hey lucky you lucky me.

verse 3 
Hey look at me in the spotlight, 
Ripped jeans and rock and roll hair, 
Feeling so cool but I'd be such a fool, 
Singing to no one out there. 

Pre-Chorus 3 
So hey take a bow every band needs a crowd, 
And I've got a song we can sing. 

Chorus 
As long as the rivers still run to the seas, 
Hey lucky you lucky me, 
Hey lucky you lucky me, 
Hey lucky you lucky me.
