Sailing To Philadelphia Mark Knopfler

[F#m] [A] [F#m] [E]
[F#m]I am Jeremiah Dixon
[F#m]I am a Geordie boy
[F#m]A glass of wine with you, sir
And the la[A]dies I'll en[D]joy
All [E]Durham and Nort[A]humberl[D]and
Is [E]measured up by [A]my own h[D]and [A]
[E]It was my f[A]ate from b[D]irth
[D]To make my mark upon the [E]earth...
He [F#m]calls me Charlie Mason
[F#m]A stargazer am I
[F#m]It seems that I was born
To [A]chart the evening s[D]ky
They'd c[E]ut me out for b[A]aking br[D]ead
But [E]I had other dr[A]eams inst[D]ead
This b[E]aker's boy from the w[A]est countr[D]y
[D]Would join the Royal Societ[E]y...
We are s[A]ailing t[E]o Philad[F#m]elphia[D]
[A]A world aw[E]ay from the c[Bbm]oaly T[E]yne
S[C#m]ailing to Ph[F#m]iladelphi[D]a
[F#m]To draw the l[E]ine
A M[D]ason-D[E]ixon L[A]ine
[A] [F#m] [A] [F#m] [E]
[F#m]Now you're a good surveyor, Dixon
[F#m]But I swear you'll make me mad
[F#m]The West will kill us both
You g[A]ullible Geordie l[D]ad
You [E]talk of l[A]ibert[D]y
How c[E]an Americ[A]a be fr[D]ee
A G[E]eordie and a b[A]aker's b[D]oy
In the f[D]orests of the Iroqu[E]ois...
[F#m]Now hold your head up, Mason
[F#m]See America lies there
[F#m]The morning tide has raised
The c[A]apes of Delaw[D]are
[E]Come up and f[A]eel the s[D]un
[E]A new m[A]orning has beg[D]un
An[E]other day will m[A]ake it cl[D]ear
Wh[D]y your stars should guide us h[E]ere...
We are s[A]ailing t[E]o Philad[F#m]elphia[D]
[A]A world aw[E]ay from the c[Bbm]oaly T[E]yne
S[C#m]ailing to Ph[F#m]iladelphi[D]a
[F#m]To draw the l[E]ine
A M[D]ason-D[E]ixon L[D]ine [A]
A M[D]ason-D[E]ixon L[A]ine
[A] [F#m] [A] [F#m] [E]
F#m A F#m E x3
