Lyrics and Chords

Set to the hymn Hyfrydol by Rowland Huw Prichard.[Capo 2]

Though below me I feel no motion Standing on these mountains and plains Far away from the rolling ocean Still my dry land heart can say I've been sailing all my life now Never harbor nor port have I known The wide universe is the ocean I travel And the Earth is my blue boat home

/ D Bm7 Em A / D Bm Em-A D / : / Bm7 - Em A / D Bm Em A / / D G D A / D G A - D - /

Sun, my sail and moon, my rudder As I ply the starry sea Leaning over the edge in wonder Casting questions into the deep Drifting here with my ship's companions All we kindred pilgrim souls Making our way by the lights of the heavens In our beautiful blue boat home

Hm-m-m...

/ D Bm7 Em A / D Bm Em-A D / :

I give thanks to the waves upholding me Hail the great winds urging me on Greet the infinite sea before me Sing the sky my sailor's song I was born upon the fathoms Never harbor or port have I known The wide universe is the ocean I travel And the Earth is my blue boat home The wide universe is the ocean I travel And the Earth is my blue boat home

... / D G D A / D G A D / / D G D A / D G A - - - D - - - /

Ah-ah-ah...

/ As first two lines of verse /
