[Intro]
 C       G       Am        F
 
 F         C             G            Am
Hoist your sails to the wind, let her blow boys.
        F   G              Am
And you know we're sailing home
 
[Solo]
..      Am      C       G
Am      Am      C       G
C       C       G       Am
Em      Em      C       G
Am      Am      Am      Am
 
 
[Verse 1]
Am                   Am           C              G
When I hear a piper pipe a sad lament across the Glen
Am                   Am          C           G
or see the welcome smile upon a passingface again
   C                    Em          Am            Em
Or taste the fresh salt air blowing on a westward wind
              C                   G
I'll know I'm home, I'll know I'm home
 
Am      Am      Am      Am
 
 
[Verse 2]
Am                     Am             C                    G
When I see the small boats haul their traps rolling on the tide
Am                   Am                   C           G
Or have an old man make me laugh or bring tears to my eyes
C                       Em                   Am                Em
Or shake the hands that shook the world with music filled with pride
              C                   G               Am            Am
I'll know I'm home, I'll know I'm home.
   F          C             G             Am               F
So hoist your sails, to the wind. Let her blow boys, home again
C             G            Am           F   G              Am
Fair, fair as she has ever been and you know we're sailing home.
 
[Solo]
Am      Am      C       G
Am      Am      C       G
C       C       G       Am
Em      Em      C       G
Am      Am      Am      Am
 
 
[Verse 3]
Am                  Am                C              G
So to the men who broke their backs a debt I have to pay
Am                  Am                C             G
To the ones who've long since past to find a better way
C                  Em                  Am                Em
Come now lads and raise a glass we'll join them all some day
         C             G                Am              Am
Sailing home, sailing home.
   F          C             G              Am               F
So hoist your sails, to the wind. Let her blow boys, home again
C             G            Am            F   G              Am
Fair, fair as she has ever been, and you know we're sailing home
        F          G       Am            F   G              Am
And you know we're sailing home. And you know we're sailing home.
