Six Months In A Leaky Boat

[Verse 1]
             D
When I was a young man I wanted to sail 'round the world
                    Bm
That's the life for me, living on the sea
            D
Spirit of a sailor circumnavigates the globe
           Bm
Lust of pioneer will acknowledge no fronteir

[Chorus 1]
    A                    D
I remember you by thunderclap in the sky
          A                              D           Bm
Lightning flash tempers flare, Round the Horn if you dare
             Gmaj7
I just spent six months in a leaky boat
                            D   A   D
Lucky just to keep afloat

[Verse 2]
Aotearoa, rugged individual
Glisten like a pearl at the bottom of the world
The tyrany of distance didn't stop the cavalier
So why should it stop me? I'll conquer and stay free

[Chorus 2]
Ah come on all you lads, let's forget and forgive
There's a world to explore, tales to tell back on shore
I just spent six months in a leaky boat
Six months in a leaky boat

[Chorus 3]
Shipwrecked love can be cruel, don't be fooled by her kind
There's a wind in my sails, will protect and prevail
I just spent six months in a leaky boat
Nothing to it, leaky boat

[Outro]
D
