Sydney, our [Cm] biggest, busiest, brightest city, [Gm] divided by the harbour, brought together by the [A] bridge.
[Gm] The harbour and the bridge, nature's work and man's, welded into [Dm] one glorious panorama.

You can't say you've been [G] to Sydney till you've seen the harbour from a [Cm] boat.
[Ab] So join us aboard a [Cm] lovely adventure [Ab]-centred two-mastered [Cm] schooner named Mistral 2.
[Eb] Her four young owners named her that after a strange wind [Cm] that blows [Gm] wanderlust down
the European [D] Alps.
It'll be blowing them [Gm] around the world soon.
And as we headed out onto the harbour, it wasn't hard to imagine [A] us sailing [D] out to where
the [Gm] water is really wide.
