           E                    A                   EI still remember the day, you were standin' on the kay
       A             E                    Bwith tears in your eyes while the sirens yelled
        EIt was time to go aboard

             E              Bwalk all the miles over the sea
       E                            A           Eevery sailor here(aboard) has got a leak in his heart
     A              E             Bbut no one's got a leak as big as mine
          E                            A           Eand they dream of their love, of their loved sweet heart
       A                  E               Bof the little girl in the harbor of their homes

[Verse 2]
          Etoo many years have passed by
         A              Etoo much time upon the sea
         A           E               Ball the memories of you signing two decrees
     E                           A            Ethe taste of your lips, and the smell of your hair
    A               E                     Bthe longing in your voice as you said goodbye

[Chorus]

         C#m                 AFor the miles, I crawled the ocean
          E                   BFor the miles between you and me
             C#m              Awalk all the miles, trying to kill me
             E              Bwalk all the miles over the sea
       E                            A           Eevery sailor here(aboard) has got a leak in his heart
     A              E             Bbut no one's got a leak as big as mine
