He said Gpart of me
Has been Clost at Gsea
AmNever to return Dagain
With her Geyes wide open
She was Csoftly Gspoken
She said: "Ambabe, are you missing the breeze Dagain?"
You look so Gfine, sailor
Your Cshoes still Gshine
AmAfter years of a house that don't Dsway
But she could Gsee in his eyes
that ship's Cflag still Gflies
And his Amhome was a ocDean away
[chorus]
He sGang, freedom was mine
For Cone last Gtime
When I was Amsailing along those Dwaves
But now my Gplate don't slide
And my Crum's now Gwine
And I will Amnever Dbe the Gsame
I don't hear Gbirds no more
But there's Cswallows on my Ghands
I earnt a Amstar that wasn't plucked from Dabove
I have meGmories of friends
Who leCft this earth as Gyoung men
Yet my hairs as Amwhite as my Dhat once, Gwas
He sang, fGreedom was mine
For Cone last Gtime
When I was Amsailing along those Dwaves
But now my Gplate don't slide
And my Crum's now Gwine
And I will Amnever Dbe the Gsame
I hear a blast in the Gbackground
Feel the Cwind whip Gmy face
Towing a Amsister ship that dDidn't make it home
Colours, fadGe away from me
As I Cawake, Ammy wife said
"I'm Amsleeping Dnext to my Gown"
He sanGg, freedom was mine
For Cone last Gtime
When I was Amsailing along those Dwaves
But now my Gplate don't slide
And my Crum's now Gwine
And I will Amnever Dbe the Gsame

He said part of me

C G

Has been lost at sea

Am D

Never to return again

With her eyes wide open

C G

She was softly spoken

Am D

She said: "babe, are you missing the breeze again?"

You look so fine, sailor

C G

Your shoes still shine

Am D

After years of a house that don't sway

But she could see in his eyes

C G

that ship's flag still flies

Am D

And his home was a ocean away

[chorus]

He sang, freedom was mine

C G

For one last time

Am D

When I was sailing along those waves

But now my plate don't slide

C G

And my rum's now wine

Am D G

And I will never be the same

I don't hear birds no more

C G

But there's swallows on my hands

Am D

I earnt a star that wasn't plucked from above

I have memories of friends

C G

Who left this earth as young men

Am D G

Yet my hairs as white as my hat once, was

He sang, freedom was mine

C G

For one last time

Am D

When I was sailing along those waves

But now my plate don't slide

C G

And my rum's now wine

Am D G

And I will never be the same

I hear a blast in the background

C G

Feel the wind whip my face

Am D

Towing a sister ship that didn't make it home

Colours, fade away from me

C Am

As I awake, my wife said

Am D G

"I'm sleeping next to my own"

He sang, freedom was mine

C G

For one last time

Am D

When I was sailing along those waves

But now my plate don't slide

C G

And my rum's now wine

Am D G

And I will never be the same
