Alana Henderson – On Board chords

INTRO:
NONE


VERSE:  (Alana Henderson)
G                AmI don't need no shore leave
        F                               C'Cause feet fixed, I still sway to the sea's heave

 G               Am                       FDon't need to be wrung  out or hung out to dry
                CI know how the lands lie

 G                  AmAnd if you came on board
              F                        CI know you'd scan for the safety of a lighthouse blink

G              AmAny port in a storm, love
      FYou promise you won't falter
       C                  GBut I know I've seen men sink


CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
N.C.              CSo you should get on board
      G                       Am            FWith someone whose course is steadier than mine

               CYou should get on board
      G                     AmWith someone whose eyes are on the horizon
 FNot on the skies

C              GOn board with someone
             Am               FWhose anchor is heavier than mine

               C   C GYou should get on board
 E    Am  FHaa haaaaa


VERSE: (Alana Henderson)
  F           Am             F'Cause I'm a flotsam jetsam mess
           C           C   GA drunken sailor in a dre-ess

 G         Am              FAnd fifty fathoms deep no less
                    C  C  GWhen my heart's at sea

G                   AmAnd if you came on board
              F                         CI know you'd tire of the tossing of my seabed

 G                 AmAnd forget what I said
  F                         C            GShips were not built to be safe, no, no, no


CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
G                 CSo you should get on board
      G                       Am            FWith someone whose course is steadier than mine

               CYou should get on board
      G                     AmWith someone whose eyes are on the horizon
 F          F   CNot on the ski-ies

               GOn board with someone
             Am               FWhose anchor is heavier than mine

VERSE: (Joshua Burnside]
 F                     CWell, I've weathered worse storms
          EThan the one, the one you've been
Am                    F  Brewin' up in your mind

 F               CI've weathered worse storms
       E                   AmLord knows, he knows I've been sailin'
        FFor an awfully long time

  C                         EWorse storms than all your fair-weather friends
     AmAnd your shipmates combined
 FTie up those lines

       C'Cause I shot the albatross
    GAnd I will swim across
    Am                       FThe old man and the sea has nothin' on me

        C'Cause this love is steady
 ETruer than North
    Am                 F    CNow you take that on board
 G                Am   FYou take that on boar-oard


CHORUS: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
F                  CNo, you should get on board
      G                        Am           FWith someone whose course is steadier than mine

                     C      You should get on board
(I've weathered worse storms)
      G                     AmWith someone whose eyes are on the horizon
 F          F   CNot on the ski-ies
    (I stare at)

               GOn board with someone
             Am               FWhose anchor is heavier than mine

        F             C        G       You should get on board
(I've sailed in a storm)

 G       Am       FWill end for the year


VERSE: (Alana Henderson and Joshua Burnside)
N.C.         CI'll be the figurehead
    GOn your ship's bow
             AmI'll be the last glimpse of a topsail
   FAs we go down

          CI'll be waiting on the seabed
   GRepeating the words
         Am                    FDon't forget, ships were not built to be safe
(You said)

        C                GAnd in all my life's mistakes
 GYou were not one
       Am'Cause all I've ever done
 FAll I've ever done

    CIs love you
        G             Am   F    CTo the bottom of the deep blue sea
