I'm sailing down the [D] summer wind [A] I've got whiskers on [E] my chin
[D] And I like the mood [A] I'm in As I while away [D] the time of day
In [A] the lee of [E] Christian Island
[A] Tall and strong she dips [D] and reels
I [A] call her [E] Silver Heels [D] And she tells me how [A] she feels
She's a good old boat and [D] she'll stay afloat Through [A] the toughest gale and [E] keep smiling
[A] But for one more day [D] she would like to stay In [E] the lee of [A] Christian Island
I'm sailing down the summer [D] day Where [A] fish and seagulls [E] play
[D] I put my troubles all [A] away And when the gale comes up
[D] I fill my cup with [A] the whiskey of the [E]
highlands
She's
[A] a good old ship and [D] she'll make the trip From [E] the lee of [A] Christian Island

[A] Tall and strong she slips [D]
along [A] I sing for her [E] a song
[D] And she leans into [A] the wind.
She's a good old folk and [D] she'll still float
[A] Through the toughest gale and [E] keep smiling.
[A] When the summer ends [D] we will rest again
[E] In the lee of [A] Christian Island.
Mmm, [D] mmm, [A]

the summer [D] ends we will rest again
[E] In the lee of [A] Christian Island
