Bm D A

Bm
The southwestern wind
D
It soon will blow again
A Bm
Blowing steady at its pace
(B) (C#) D
And I'm travelling at the measure
F#m A/Ab A A/Ab
Of a lonely man's leisure
F#m E A
Sailing across the ocean grace


Bm
And this heavy heavy burden
D
On the last of my two dollars
A Bm
Hidden in the neck of my guitar case
(B) (C#) D
And I'm trying to make a pastime
F#m A/Ab A A/Ab
Out of living off the last dime
F#m E A
Sailing across the ocean grace


D
And you can count the goodbyes
A
With the tears in my eyes
D E
Rolling down this weathered face
F#m E
With the pockets of a poor man
Bm
And the love of a woman
A A/Ab A
I'm sailing across the ocean grace


Bm
And there's a cradle in the valley
D
Of the Appalachian mountains
A Bm
Where the wood is split to crack in the fireplace
(B) (C#) D
And the winter is a shepherd
F#m A/Ab A A/Ab
And she calls me with a soft word
F#m E A
Sailing across the ocean grace


Bm
And the candle in the window
D
It flickers a reminder
A Bm
The morning sun will show its face
(B) (C#) D
And the folly of a traveler
F#m A/Ab A A/Ab
As in passing what he's after
F#m E A
Sailing across the ocean grace


D
And you can count the goodbyes
A
With the tears in my eyes
D E
Rolling down this weathered face
F#m E
With the pockets of a poor man
Bm
And the love of a woman
A A/Ab A
I'm sailing across the ocean grace

And the news is in the paper
D
And it reads across the pages
A Bm
A sailor lost at sea without a trace
(B) (C#) D
And I'm itching away the high hand
F#m A/Ab A A/Ab
As I'm stepping off the dry land

Sailing across the ocean grace

With the tears in my eyes
