Song lyrics with chords
[CAPO ON 3RD FRET]
[PLAY INSTRUMENTAL INTRO]
C
All I wanted was a ship
G
to sail half around the world
So I could see from over there
C
what it's like to be over here
C
We set sail on a ship
G
made from a tall mountain tree
Just like all of us on board
C C7
it had never seen the sea
[CHORUS START]
F
And soon I realized
C
the world is always round
G
No matter how far you go
C C7
there is always more to see
F
And much to my surprise
C
the world is also flat
G
No matter how far you go
C
You are always the same one
[CHORUS END]
C
All I wanted was a boat
G
to bring me to the other side
So I could see with my own eyes
C
if I'd been told a bunch of lies
C
I took a crew of disbelievers
G
that had some doubts of their own
N.C.
They said "Take us to the edge,
C C7
then take us all back home!"
[SING CHORUS]
[PLAY AGAIN THE INSTRUMENTAL INTRO]
C
All I wanted was a ship
G
to sail across the seven seas
G
To come back home I don't know when
C
and see the old as new again
