1st verse

	G	F	C
Go	t out of town on a bo	at goin' to southern isl	ands

	G	F	C
Sailing a re	ach	before a followin' s	ea

	G	F	C
S	he was makin' for the tra	des on the out	side,

	G	F	C
And the dow	nhill run	to Pa-pe-e	-te

	G	F	C
Off the wi	nd on this head	ing lie the Marq	uesas

	G	F	C	Am	G
We got eig	hty feet of the	waterline, n	icely m	aking	way

	G	F	C
In a noi	sy bar in Av	alon I tried to c	all you

	G	F	C	Am	G
But on a mid	night watch I re	alized why tw	ice you r	an aw	ay

CHORUS:

	F	C	F	G
T	hink about how ma	ny times I	have fa	llen

	F	C	F	G
Sp	irits are usi	ng me, lar	ger voices cal	lin'

	F	C	F	G
W	hat heaven brought y	ou and me can	not be forg	otten

	C	F	G
I have been ar	oun	d the worl	d

	C	F	G
loo	kin' for that wo	man, gi	rl

	C	F	G
Who kn	ows love ca	n end	ure

	G	F	C	G	F	C
And you know it w	ill		And you know it wi	ll

2nd verse:

	G	F	C
When you	see the Southern C	ross for the	first time

	G	F	C
You	understand	now why you came this	way

	G	F	C
'Cause	the truth you might be	runnin' from is so	small

	G	F	C	Am	G
But it's	as big as the	promise, the	promise of	a coming	day

	G	F	C
So	I'm sailing for	tomorrow, my dreams	are a dyin'

	G	F	C	Am	G
And my	love is an anchor	tied to you, tie	d with a si	lver ch	ain

	G	F	C
I have my	ship and all	her flags are a	flyin'

	G	F	C	Am	G
She is	all that I have	left and mu	sic is	her n	ame

CHORUS

Solo.

	G	F	C
	Ooooooooooooo	Ooooooooooo	Ooooooooooooooo X4

3rd Verse

	G	F	C
So we	cheated and we	lied and we	tested

	G	F	C
And we	never failed to	fail, it was the	easiest thing to do

	G	F	C
You	will survive	being be	sted

	G	F	C	Am	G
But somebody	fine	will come along make me	forget about	loving you

In the Southern Cross
