Sail On Lyrics & Tabs by Graham Bonnet
Sail On
guitar chords lyrics
Long ago on the Emerald Isle
Was a wild young Irish lad, Henry was his name
Ran away from home, turned and he came back
Had his sister stitch a hold in his gunny sack
Headed out west with a crazy dream
Said, "The sea is my mistress calling to me"
On and on and on and on and on
Got to keep sailin' on
First stop was an island in the sun south of paradise
Fell in love with a dark skin girl with the moonlit eyes
Married that girl, said he'd never leave...
Had a couple of kids, then they said goodbye
He couldn't even tell her the reason why
On and on and on and on and on
Got to keep sailin' on
He couldn't even tell her the reason why
On and on and on and on and on
Got to keep sailin' on
Life flows like a river, somebody once told me
Go where it takes you and never go back
It seemed so easy till you hit white water
Pullin' you under, sinkin' too fast
Free your heart from the chains that bind you
Find your way, leave the past behind you
Sail on...
Sail on, through the mysterious seas of life
Sail on, maybe this time we'll get it right
Sail on, gotta keep sailin' on
Sail on, gotta keep sailin' on
Sail on, gotta keep sailin' on
