[F] [C] [G]
As the son of a son of a sailor I [F] went out on [C] the sea for [G] adventure
[C] Expanding the view of [G] the captain and crew like [D] a man just released from [G] indenture
As a dreamer of dreams and a traveling man I [F] have chomped [C] on many [G] a mile
[C] Read dozens of books [G] about heroes and crooks and [D] I learned much in both of [G] their styles
Son of a son, [C] son of a son, son of a son of [G] a sailor
[F] Son of a god, [C] no the last time, one step [Am] ahead of the [G] jailer
Now away in the near future,
[F] southeast [C] of [G] disorder
You [C] can shake the hand of the [G] mango man as he [D] greets you at the [G] border
And the lettuce she hails from Trinidad
[F] I love [C] the [G] spices, [C] salt for your meat [G] and cinnamon sweet
And the [D] rum is for all your [G] goodbyes
[G] All the sheeting as we [C] ride on the wind that our forefathers harnessed before us
Hear [F] the bells ring as the [C] tide riggin' sings, it's the son of a [Am] god of a [G] chorus

[G] Where it all ends I can't fathom my friends if I [F] knew I [C] might toss out my [G] anchor
[C] So I'll cruise along [G] always searching for songs, not a [D] lawyer, a thief or [G] a banker
But son of a son, [C] son of a son, son of a [G] son of a sailor
[F] Son of a god, [C] no the last time, one step ahead of the [G] jailer
I'm just a son [C] of a son, son of a son, son of a son of [G] a sailor
The [F] seas in my veins, my [C]
tradition remains, I'm just glad [A] I don't live in a [G] trailer
