 C
Safe at harbor, everything is easy
Am                 F7               G7
Off to starboard, daylight comes up fast
 C
Now I'm restless for the open water
 Am                    F7                   G7
Red flags are flying from the Coast Guard mast
A#                   C   F
They told me to stay, I heard all the information
A#            C      A7
I motored away and steered straight ahead
            D7
Though the weatherman said

Chorus:
           Gm7               D#    D7
There's a storm front coming (mood indigo)
 Gm7                          D#         D7
White water running and the pressure is low
 Gm7               D#    D7
Storm front coming (mood indigo)
 C#9
Small craft warning on the radio

I've been sailing a long time on this ocean
Man gets lonesome, all those years at sea
I've got a woman, my life should be easy
Most men hunger for the life I lead
The morning was gray, but I had the motivation
I drifted away and ran into more
Heavy weather off shore

Chorus

             C7
We've got a low pressure system
                      C#7
and a northeast breeze
             C7                             C#7
We've got a falling barometer and rising seas
              C7                             C#7
We've got the cumulonimbus and a possible gale
             Gm
We've got a force nine blowing on
the Beaufort scale

I'm still restless for the open water
Though she gives me everything I need
She asked me to stay, but I'd done my navigation
I drove her away, but I should have known
To stay tied up at home
