[Am]We're taking on water, diesel and[D] stores
[G]Laying up awhile before I'm [C]back on board
[Am]They're patching her up
To go fishing a[D]gain, fishing a[G]gain
[Am]They're welding her rudder scr[D]ubbing her keel
[G]Scars on her belly need [C]time to heal
In the [Am]dock
With the traw[B]lermen
I k[Am]now all the people, there's [D]nobody new
[G]Soon we'll be leaving with the s[C]ame old crew
On the g[Am]reen water the tumbling s[D]ea [G]
T[Am]hey ain't running like the g[D]ood old days
[G]Time's just slipping Down the [C]old slipways
In the d[Am]ock so dear [B]to me
Dark is th[Am]e night, I[D] need [G]a guiding[Em] light
To keep [G]me from foun[Em]dering
On the roc[D]ks
My[Am] only [D]prayer [G]is just to [Em]see you there
At the [G]end of my wan[D]dering
I [Am]could use a layoff, getting my str[D]ength back
But ther[G]e's a loan to pay off and a [C]few skipjack
So it's a t[Am]urnaround
Back in the southerly[D] wind [G]
P[Am]irates coming in to steal o[D]ur gold
You c[G]an count yourself lucky with a p[C]rofit in the hold
In the [Am]dock when we c[B]ome in
Dar[Am]k is the n[D]ight, [G]I need a [Em]guiding light
To keep [G]me from foun[Em]dering
On the roc[D]ks
My[Am] only [D]prayer [G]is just to [Em]see you there
At the [G]end of my wan[D]dering
Back in the [G]dock [G7]
