[Capo on first fret]
    
G      D      C               G
   I am a sailor,you're my first mate
                D            C           D
   We signed on together, we coupled our fate
   C             D          C              G
   Hauled up our anchor, determined not to fail
                  D          C             G
   For the hearts treasure together we set sail.
    
G               D           C               G
   With no maps to guide us we steered our own course
                D               C               D
   Rode out the storms when the winds were gale force
   C           D           C            G
   Sat out the doldrums in patience and hope
             D         C              G
   Working together we learned how to cope.
    
CHORUS
Bm         C         Bm        C
    Life is an ocean and love is a boat
                Am         C         D
    In troubled water that keeps us afloat
            C           D                Bm          C
    When we started the voyage,there was just me and you
                             Am        D    G
    Now gathered round us we have our own crew.
G        D             C         G
Together we're in this relationship
                 D        C              D
We built it with care to last the whole trip
    C          D           C             G
Our true destination's not marked on any charts
           D            C             G
We're navigating to the shores of the heart.
