[Intro]
C
 
 
[Verse 1]
C
Feet fixed firm on windswept headland
C
Far above the raging sea
C
Lord of all the stormy deeps
C
The wealth of ages at his knee
 
 
[Bridge]
   Gm                 A
Protects and nurtures navigators
Bb               C
Raiders bold who loot and plunder
Gm                 A
Giving strength to hold at bay
    Bb                C
The tallest wave, the savage thunder
 
 
[Verse 2]
C
Then, to bring them home again
C
Safe to revel in their fame
C
With tales of valour, harsh and virile
C
Treasures taken in Gods' names
 
 
[Interlude]
C
 
 
[Bridge]
Gm                     A
Crab pots stacked, fat diesel straining
Bb               C
At the white and foam-flecked wave
Gm             A
Echo sounding, seaman rounding
Bb                 C
Dark mull skirts a watery grave
 
 
[Verse 3]
C
Which calls to lure brave navigators
C
Who venture far from harbour home
C
Burning with that lust of feisty
C
Fisher-folk who live to roam

[Verse 4]
C
Feet fixed firm on windswept headland
C
Far above the raging sea
C
Lord of all the stormy deeps

The wealth of ages at his knee

Giving strength to hold at bay

The tallest wave, the savage thunder
 
 
[Verse 5]

Then, to bring them home again
