CThough bCelow me I fFeel no Gmotion
CStanding Am7on these Gmountains and Cplains
CFar aCway from the Frolling Gocean
CStill my Am7dry land Gheart can Csay
EmI've been Am7sailing Dm7all my G7life now
EmNever FM7harbor nor pDm7ort have I knoG7wn
The Cwide uniFverse is the Cocean I Gtravel
CAnd the FEarth is my Cblue Gboat Chome
CSun, my Csail and Fmoon, my Grudder
CAs I Am7ply the Gstarry Csea
CLeaniCng over the Fedge in Gwonder
CCasting qAm7uestions Ginto the Cdeep
EmDrifting Am7here with my Dm7ship's G7companions
EmAll we FM7kindred Dm7pilgrim sG7ouls
CMaking oFur way by the Clights of the Gheavens
CIn our Fbeautiful Cblue Gboat Chome

The Cwide uniFverse is the Cocean I Gtravel
CAnd the FEarth is my Cblue Gboat Chome

Blue Boat Home

Peter Mayer

C C F G

Though below me I feel no motion

C Am7 G C

Standing on these mountains and plains

C C F G

Far away from the rolling ocean

C Am7 G C

Still my dry land heart can say

Em Am7 Dm7 G7

I've been sailing all my life now

Em FM7 Dm7 G7

Never harbor nor port have I known

C F C G

The wide universe is the ocean I travel

C F C G C

And the Earth is my blue boat home

C C F G

Sun, my sail and moon, my rudder

C Am7 G C

As I ply the starry sea

C C F G

Leaning over the edge in wonder

C Am7 G C

Casting questions into the deep

Em Am7 Dm7 G7

Drifting here with my ship's companions

Em FM7 Dm7 G7

All we kindred pilgrim souls

C F C G

Making our way by the lights of the heavens

C F C G C

In our beautiful blue boat home

C C F G

I give thanks to the waves upholding me

C Am7 G C

Hail the great winds urging me on

C C F G

Greet the infinite sea before me

C Am7 G C

Sing the sky my sailor's song

Em Am7 Dm7 G7

I was born upon the fathoms

Em FM7 Dm7 G7

Never harbor or port have I known

C F C G

The wide universe is the ocean I travel

C F C G C

And the Earth is my blue boat home
