  			G                               Dm  
My boat sails stormy seas,  
            C                          G  
Battles oceans filled with tears.  
                              Dm  
At last my port’s in view,  
               C                      G  
Now that I’ve discovered you.  
  
(Chorus)                                            
           C                     Em  
Oh, I’d give my life so lightly  
            Am     Em  
For my gentle lady.  
           Dm             G  
Give it freely, and completely,  
           C  
To my Lady.  
  
     G                       Dm  
As life goes drifting by,  
           C                             G  
Like a breeze she’ll gently sigh.  
                                Dm  
And slowly bow her head,  
                   C                     G  
Then you’ll hear her softly cry.           

(Chorus)  
  
Fm                                              C  
Words that you say when we’re alone,  
       Fm                                    C  
But actions speak louder than words  
      Fm                     C  
But all I can say is I love you so. 
Dm                        G  
Drive away all my hurt.                  

(Chorus)  
  
G                           Dm  
Set sail before the sun  
              C                           G  
Feel the warmth, that’s just begun.  
                                     Dm  
Share each and every dream,  
             C                   G  
They belong to every one.            

(Chorus)
