Em
Chase the dog star
Over the sea
Home where my true love is waiting for me
C
Rope the south wind
G
Canvas the stars
Am           Bm
Harness the moonlight
C           G
So she can safely go
C              Bm       Em
Round the Cape Horn to Valparaiso

Red the port light
Starboard the green
How will she know of the devils I've seen
Cross in the sky, star of the sea
Under the moonlight, there she can safely go
Round the Cape Horn to Valparaiso
Valparaiso

     A            D                    Em          D
And every road I walked would take me down to the sea
     C              D            Em
With every broken promise in my sack
    C                D                Em         C
And every love would always send the ship of my heart
Am        Em   D  Em
Over the rolling sea

If I should die
And water's my grave
She'll never know if I'm damned or I'm saved
See the ghost fly over the sea
Under the moonlight, there she can safely go
Round the Cape Horn to Valparaiso
