[C] [G] My boat sails [Dm] stormy seas, [C] Butler's oceans filled [G] with tears, At last my port's [Dm] in view, [C] Now that I've [G] discovered you.
Oh, [C] I'd give [Em] my life so lightly, [G] For [Am] my gentle [Em] lady, [Dm] Give it freely [G] and completely, To [C] my lady.
As
[G] [Dm]

life goes drifting [Dm] by, [C] Like a breeze she'll [G] gently sigh, And slowly bow [Dm] her head, [C] Then you'll hear her [G] softly cry.
Oh, [C] I'd give [Em] my life so lightly, For [Am] my gentle [Em] lady, [Dm] Give it freely [G] and completely, To [C] my lady.
[Fm] Words that you say when [C] we are alone, [Fm] Though actions speak louder [C] than words, [Fm] But all I can say [C] is I love you [Am] so, To drive away all [F] my [G] hurt.
Oh, [C] I'd give [Em] my life so lightly, [G]
