 Now down  the course of history
 On this  you must agree
 The bravest  men  will always  knows
 Who sailed  across  the sea
Oh,  the life  of the sea is the life  for me
 No lovers  of land are we
La  la  la  la, La la la  la, La  la  la  la  la  la
 Oh, the life  of the sea is the life  for me
 No lovers  of land are we
 We love  it despite  it
 Delighted  to fight  it
 What other  life could  there be?
 x2
 He's right!
 Ulysses,  he was bold  and brave
 As brave  as he can be
 And this  is when  the sea  was strange
 (e fret 8 B fret 8 G fret 9 D fret 10) the little bells lol
 As strange  as seas  can be
Oh,  the life  of the sea is the life  for me
 No lovers  of land are we
La  la  la  la, La la la  la, La  la  la  la  la  la
 Oh, the life  of the sea is the life  for me
 No lovers  of land are we
 We love  it despite  it
 Delighted  to fight  it
 What other  life could  there be?
 The Romans  who were a  fighting lot
 Their ships  were fast and long
 They won  the  Mediterranean
 With sailors  big  and strong
 D45 x 7
Oh,  the life  of the sea is the life  for me
 No lovers  of land are we
La  la  la  la, La la la  la, La  la  la  la  la  la
Oh,  the life  of the sea is the life  for me
 No lovers  of land are we
 We love  it despite  it
 Delighted  to fight  it
 What other  life could  there be?
 fourth fret -string  fourth fret -string  ninth fret -string
 What other  life could  there be?
 The Vikings  never gave  a thought
 To winters,  cold and ice
 And sailed to  upper  latitudes
 Beneath  the Northern  Lights
Oh,  the life  of the sea is the life  for me
 No lovers  of land are we
La  la  la  la, La la la  la, La  la  la  la  la  la
Oh,  the life  of the sea is the life  for me
 No lovers  of land are we
 We love  it despite  it
 Delighted  to fight  it
 What other  life could  there be?
 For me!  Me! Me! Meeeeeeeee!
 What other  life could  there be?
 I heard  a tale of travelers
 Who feared  they'd reach the edge
 But long  before,  a serpent  came
 And ate  'em up  instead!
