[Ab] [Eb]
[Bb]
[F] [Eb] For a landlocked [Ab] sailor washed up [Eb] on the shore, never been so many miles [F] from the [Bb] sea before.
[Eb] Is he dreaming of the [Ab] surging tides rolling [Eb] swell?
Is he dreaming [Bb] of the ocean?
No, is he hell?
[Ab] He's a happy landlocked sailor [F] living in the tree.
[Ab] He's fought the roaring tide [Bb] race for the mountain breeze.
When his [Ab] wife he lives in paradise [Eb] in the Rockies [Cm] of BC.
[Eb] [Bb] How I wish that happy [Bb] landlocked sailor could [Eb] be me.
[Bb]
[Eb]
Finds that on the lake he's [Ab] never bothered [Eb] by the tides.
All his [Bb] navigation is [F] done on the mountainside.
[Eb] Waves of ocean blue have changed [Ab] to waves of forest [Eb] green.
White horses and [Bb] snow-capped peaks as far as can [Eb] be seen.
[Ab] He's a happy landlocked sailor living in the [Eb] tree.
[Ab] He's fought the roaring tide [Bb] race for the mountain [F] breeze.
When [Ab] his wife he lives in paradise [Eb] in the Rockies of [Cm] BC.
[Eb] How I wish that [Bb] happy landlocked sailor could [Eb] be me.

He used to sail the sea lane to [Ab] exotic [Bb] ports of call.
[Eb] Now he drives [Bb] on dusty [F] roads down to the [Bb] local mall.
[Eb] His roving days are over, his feet upon the shore.
He's never going back, he's [Bb] on dry land [Bb] forevermore.
[Ab] I'm the happy landlocked sailor, I'm living [F] [Eb] in the tree.
[Ab] I've fought the roaring tide [Bb] race for the mountain breeze.
With my [Ab] old wife I'm living in paradise in the Rockies [Cm] of BC.
[Eb] Now you know that [Bb] happy landlocked sailor's [Eb] really me.
