1. I am a sailor, and you’re my first mate,

Am Em F G

we signed on together, we coupled our fate.

Am Em F C

Hauled up our anchor, determined not to fail,

C G          F              C

for the heart’s treasures together we set sail.

C G F C

2. With no maps to guide us we steered our own course,

Am Em F G

wheathered the storms when the winds were gale force,

Am Em F C

sat out the doldrums in patience and hope,

C G          F             C

working together we learned how to cope.

Em Am Em Am

Life is an ocean and love is a boat

Dm         F      G

in troubled water that keeps us afloat.

F            G                Em Am

When we started the voyage, there was just me and you

F        G    C

but now, look around us, we have our own crew.

3. Together we’re in this relationship,

Am Em F G

we built it with care to last the whole trip.

Am Em F C

Our true destination’s not marked on any charts,

C G          F              C

we’re navigating to the shores of the heart.

Em Am Em Am

Life is an ocean and love is a boat

Dm         F           G

in troubled water that keeps us afloat.

When we started the voyage, there was just me and you

F        G    C

but now, look around us, we have our own crew.
